Overall: Looks good. Nice work @Launchballer:. Only question: if there is a branch still open (article makes it seem like Greater Manchester branch is open, only West Disbury closed), shouldn't the article say "Greens is a restaurant" rather than "Greens was a restaurant"?

- I'd be inclined to say no, on the grounds that the West Didsbury branch is the one with virtually all of the coverage, and that's the one I've written about. I've amended the article to that effect.--Launchballer 06:50, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that it makes sense that the West Didsbury Greens is the subject. Presumably a new team was recruited for Sale, so the owners have a less hands on role. I think it would be useful to add something like "the Sale restaurant is still open as of 2024". TSventon (talk) 11:38, 17 April 2024 (UTC)
- Article is fine then.
