== Incorrect Jury Voting Section == |

==Survivor Fiji== |

Please stop putting in Survivor Fiji. Only one source is saying it, and that source isn't confirming it. Last season Survivor Maps was right, but right now, they have no maps, no extended info, and little or no links. Once again, they aren't confirming it. Also, before the Survivor Panama Reunion Show when the official name was revealed, the page Survivor 13 got changed to Survivor Cook Islands a day or two before. This shouldn't happen again, as no one could be totally sure. Please stop.

:Survivor Maps is getting more info. Fiji may actually be right. However, if we do put it on the page, we still shouldn't move it to [[Survivor: Fiji]] until Jeff says it officially at the reunion, so it's 100% confirmed.

:::I'm not saying it shouldn't be on the page. There is so much info on it now, including Survivor Maps, which is usually reliable. I think Fiji should be included in the article, along with about 5 sources. However, there should be no page move and no putting it in the infobox.

:Okay, but perhaps it should be a "Rumored location" section instead of the outright renaming like [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Survivor_14&oldid=81914654 this revision]? I don't think [[Template:Survivorseries]] should be modified until the official name is announced.

|||
::Agreed. Like Gogo Dodo said, it may not be called Survivor Fiji, so it should just say that it may be filmed in Fiji. No info on it in the infobox, in the page title, or in template.

:::I checked around and Fiji has been confirmed by the Fijian government. [http://www.fijitimes.com/story.aspx?id=49883] [http://www.fijitimes.com/story.aspx?id=50117] So I inserted it into the article with references.

|||
The article lists that all jury members voted for Cassandra, when all jury members voted instead for Earl, and the article previously mentions that he was the winner of the season. I can't edit it to look correct though, so I'm hoping someone here will be able to! |

Just taking a quick look around the web I noticed that at least a couple of these contestants could use an article on them. Rita Verreos is a former Miss Venezuela contestant who has had a bit part in a movie, and models. She is also the sister of [[Project Runway]] contestant [[Nick Verreos]]. Sylvia Kwan is the head of a big architecture company in San Francisco, Kwan Henmi. A quick google search brings up multiple articles about her and her company. Just a couple of thoughts.

== Inclusion of Mellisa McNulty in the contestants table == |
|||
Yeah, i think thats a good idea, but it may be wise to wait for the show to gain a bit of publicity first (i.e. with the showing of 3-4 episodes) so that the public can identify them. Also, if they make it far in the game, it helps the case to create articles about them. [[User:Survivorfan101|Survivorfan101]] 04:52, 13 January 2007 (UTC) |
|||
Recent editing by IPs has added this contestant into the table [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Survivor%3A_Fiji&diff=1146827597&oldid=1141979468&diffmode=source][https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Survivor%3A_Fiji&diff=1146845668&oldid=1146836376&diffmode=source][https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Survivor%3A_Fiji&diff=1146853804&oldid=1146848743&diffmode=source], when it's been long-established that she isn't included. As it says in the lede prose, McNulty quit before filming began; Jeff Probst even makes a brief mention about this quitting contestant right before the rest of them headed to Fiji, within the first minute of the premiere episode, though he doesn't mention the contestant by name. Since viewers never saw her face during the season, and she didn't participate once filming commenced, it is inappropriate to list her anywhere else in the article other than where it has been listed. And the number of contestants that did participate is 19, not 20, as the infobox has also been changed with these edits. |
|||
:Only make articles for the contestants who did something quite important outside of the show. Many Survivor contestant articles have been AFD'd for non-notability and must make it to the final 5 or something. <font style="background:#7FFF00">[[User:Reywas92|'''Reywas92''']]</font><sup><font style="background:#00ff7f">[[User talk:Reywas92|'''Talk''']]</font></sup><sub><font style="background:#BFFF00">[[User:Reywas92/Autograph Book|'''Sigs''']]</font></sub> 14:33, 13 January 2007 (UTC) |

I've reverted this a couple of times now, and will make it three shortly. If the [[WP:CONSENSUS]] has changed, or is to change, regarding the addition of this non-participating contestant, please comment below. The IPs that have been doing this are also asked to head here to discuss their reasoning and try to achieve consensus. Continuation of adding this person to the contestants table without further discussion will be considered [[WP:DE|disruptive]], and warnings and other sanctions may follow.

::I agree that it's a bit early to think about individual articles.

::::But just being a relative of another famous person or one simple other fact that unless such a page already existed, would not make for a good Wikipage; it can be noted on the Survivor page, but as suggested, unless they become a top contender and a lot more can be said about them (eg like Dan the Astronaut or Gary the football player), they shouldn't get their own page. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 22:08, 13 January 2007 (UTC) |

:::::Being related to someone famous is almost definitely not sufficient grounds for notability. Being the head of a big architecure firm may be. It depends on what you mean by big. If it's for example, one of the top 10 in the US then this would probably be sufficient grounds for noteability. If it's like the top 100 then perhaps not. The fact that we didn't already have an article for her doesn't mean much IMHO. There are a lot of people who IMHO meet grounds for notability but don't yet have an article. Perhaps less so in the US given the large number of US contributors but there are still definitely so people. Of course, the fact that she has appeared in Survivor doesn't affect her notability yet as others have pointed out. But if people are interested enough in her because of Survivor to write an article about her concentrating on what makes her already noteable (assuming she is noteable) then there's nothing wrong IMHO [[User:Nil Einne|Nil Einne]] 10:39, 22 February 2007 (UTC) |

:I tried, but I couldn't find any good images that could be used without taking screenshots.

== The Game table prep == |
|||
My DVR showed the name of episode 1 so I started The Game section. I also prepared the Elimination Notes, Exile Notes, and Voting History table. So that the sections are not empty, I commented out the three aforementioned sections. If you're the first one who updates the article with the tribe assignments, I hope you use the table. -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 20:37, 3 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
==The table== |
|||
Since there are no pictures of the castaways, perhaps we should go back to the pre-Panama table format. Thoughts? -- [[User:Scorpion0422|Scorpion]] 15:40, 8 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
== Nicknames == |
|||
James seems to be using Rocky for a name, so I changed the sort order accordingly. As for Gary and his "Papa Smurf" nickname, it seemed unclear to me if that was what he was going to use or just what the castaways decided to call him. There was no interview with him during episode 1 so it's still a question mark. I'm tempted to remove the "Papa Smurf" thing until it's cleared up. Thoughts? -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 05:59, 9 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:Actually, Gary was interviewed in the first episode; he said that Sylvia was trying to dominate during the construction of the camp. The on-screen caption said "GARY <small>SCHOOL BUS DRIVER</small>", which I just confirmed on CBS Innertube (about 2:02 into the second section of the video). --[[User:Psiphiorg|ΨΦorg]] 14:56, 9 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
::I'd agree: use only the nicknames that are in the onscreen captions. As with most seasons, as the show goes on the survivors will generate other nicknames for the other players, but these aren't "official" and by allowing the informal ones, you'll have people adding all sorts of nicknames to the contestant list (similar problem w/ Amazing Race). --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 15:18, 9 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:::Works for me. I've removed Gary's nickname. -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 16:45, 9 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
I don't think that these sort of nicknames (i.e. Rocky and Dreamz) should be used in the voting history table. In all other season wikipedia pages, the names that appear on the offical website are used in these tables. Some extend to nicknames (for example, Cao Boi and Ozzy were used on the official site) but not always (for example, Jenn and Nate were used in the game, but Jennifer and Nathan on the official sites - hence they were used in the voting history tables). I say Dreamz be changed back to Dre and Rocky be changed back to James for the voting table only. Anyone agree? [[User:Survivorfan101|Survivorfan101]] 22:17, 9 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:I agree. Whatever is used on the official site should be used for the The game and Voting History tables. I think it should also be used for any reference to them in elimination/exile/episode summaries. -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 03:51, 10 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
::Decided to be [[WP:BOLD|bold]] and made the change. -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 22:54, 15 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:::Followed in your footsteps and changed the "game table" too a while back. Just in case people do not realise the names used are FROM THE OFFICIAL WEBSITE ONLY. These only have some nickname: i.e. Boo is used rather than Kenward, but others are not, i.e. Rocky for James and Dreamz for Dre - it is uniformity to use the names on the official site, as in the case of Jennifer from Palau (went by "Jenn" on the show but on the [[Survivor: Palau]] page she goes by Jennifer) and Nathan from Cook Islands (who went by "nate" on the show but on the [[Survivor: Cook Islands]] wikipedia page, Nathan as used - as it is on the official site.

==It begins!== |
|||
Well, the show is an episode old and an article for [[Rita Verreos]] has popped up. I really don't think she's that notable. All she did was compete in some pageants and have a relationship with Peter Gabriel and relationships with a celebrity is not notable for a page. Should we nominate it for afd? -- [[User:Scorpion0422|Scorpion]] 05:30, 10 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:To avoid the same thing with the JD article, I would almost suggest to be pre-emptive and create a separate, single past with brief bios on all contestants, only expanding beyond that if they are truly notable. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 05:57, 10 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
::Don't even remind me of the JD article. I agree that it would be nice to avoid things like that, but then people would say "contestant is not only known for Survivor" and fight for seperate pages. -- [[User:Scorpion0422|Scorpion]] 05:58, 10 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:::I don't know why they can't wait till at least the season is almost over. If Rita gets voted out in the next 6-7 episodes, then she clearly is not notable. However, if she can make it until the Final 7-9 contestants, then her past experiences with fame may culminate with her Survivor performance to create a mediocre article. Till then i say that it should be eliminated. [[User:Survivorfan101|Survivorfan101]] 06:33, 10 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
::::Some people think there is a contest where one has to be the VERY FIRST to create pages for new people, which leads to pages like that. Are we in agreement that the page should at least be merged until we find out how far she makes it? -- [[User:Scorpion0422|Scorpion]] 17:35, 10 February 2007 (UTC) |

== Color for exiled person on voting table == |
|||
Going off previous seasons, a person that was part of a tribe but was not part of TC due to some reason (exiled, kidnapped), the voting table lists that person in a different color from the normal team color. As this looks to be happening this season through the merge (at least), we need to come to an agreement: there's been a minor edit war over the color for this exiled person in ep 2. Now, since we've already identified that 'black' bg is for "no tribe association", I do not think that we should use black again. One person used the same team color but added a footnote which works to some extent (and matches with the win/lose/exile/voted off table), but I think we should find a different color (one for each tribe possibly?) for the non-voting exiled member, with the only issue that we have no idea what the merge tribe colors will be. However, until then, I recommend we use the same color used for Cook Islands (#800080 with white text). --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 14:43, 16 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:I went with the usual Ravu orange because the person in exile doesn't really change tribes, but I can understand the color change. The purple is fine for me (after all the person in exile does get "bruised" by the experience =)), but I think it should be used with both tribes for when the person is not at Tribal Council for whatever reason. I think making two different colors for each tribe will be confusing. The black "no tribe" is good. I think this is another one of those things that could get hashed out if we had a standard (hello, WikiProject?). -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 15:01, 16 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
::I mentioned the idea of a WP for Survivor earlier, though someone noted that other reality TV shows have it because of the large number of episodes in several countries and thus likely have a larger need, but scrolling through the [[WikiProject Television]] page, I see shows with much shorter timeframes (eg Firefly) that have their own WP. I think we should submit a proposal for a WP Survivor project over at the WikiProject Council (as suggested by WP TV) to make sure there's interest and to see if there's any major objections. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 15:18, 16 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
:::I wouldn't object. I've been trying to do stuff to keep track of individual survivor pages (because they get created and merged/deleted at a fantastic rate) and it would be much easier with a WikiProject to set some standards... As for the colours, purple would be fine. -- [[User:Scorpion0422|Scorpion]] 15:36, 16 February 2007 (UTC) |
|||
::::How do people feel about placing the voting table not in complte alphabetical order, but by alpha order by team. For example, all orange together alphabetized, all green together alphabetized.

== episode title quotes == |
|||
While I could argue either way for ep. titles quotes as a section, since it is a relatively new thing that Survivor is doing, The Amazing Race seasons all have episode title quote sections. I think it's fair to include them, but should be near or just above the trivia section, but not as trivia itself. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 18:01, 13 March 2007 (UTC) |

|||
::Technically, those would be episode titles (despite being quotes) so there is some relevance there. But I agree they shouldn't be placed arbitrarily; I think if they're put right at the end of the main section and right before the records/first section, it wouldn't be out of place. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 20:26, 13 March 2007 (UTC) |

:::A similar, though incomplete list appeared on [[Survivor: Cook Islands]] in a similar prominent location. With it being an incomplete list, I removed it from there, too.

I'm still not entirely convinced that it should be included, especially since it duplicates information and just going to make the article longer. Perhaps to simplify a paragraph could be added along the lines of ''"The episode titles are quotes from the castways during the show. The list of sources for the quotes are, in episode order: Edgardo, Earl, ..."'' Just a thought. -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 04:47, 18 March 2007 (UTC) |

:::::I'm not sure if they belong in the episode summaries as the origin of the quotes don't impact the game (at least for now), which is what the episode summaries are for.

::::::If I really had my way, I would reorganize this page (and every other Survivor page) to be more like other reality TV series in that you have your summary tables, and then a block with each episode detail: in the case of Survivor, you'd have your episode summary, exile reasoning, and voted out reasoning all in the same block. The title quote would lead up that block. Now, to do that with the existing S pages would take a loooot of work, so the easy way is to either do trivia (adding length to page), add to the episode summary (eg 'Episode 1 "Wow, this is Survivor" (John)": blah blah blah'), or add to where they already are (in the episode summary table). I think the latter would satisfy the gut feeling that they should be on there without affecting too much of the page. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 06:19, 19 March 2007 (UTC) |

Ah, I see what you're suggesting and that would solve this particular problem. [[Survivor: Guatemala]] is kind of like that where it's both styles, making the article even longer than it needs to be. I think there would need be a strong consensus to make such a huge change in the format of the article. I think it's early enough in the season that if such a consensus could be reached, that we could make the change without too much work. Changing all of the past seasons would be a huge amount of work like you said. -- [[User:Gogo Dodo|Gogo Dodo]] 06:44, 19 March 2007 (UTC) |

:I looked at [[The Amazing Race 11]] and they have a similar section standing by itself. Though half of that article is trivia and the structure of the article is a little odd in my opinion.

In addition, official sites, like CBS's, are preferred over fan sites unless there is reasonable criteria to keep them. In the case of the above site (which I didn't delete) I believe it does little beyond what CBS's site already has and thus is not really worthwhile to keep. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 02:38, 20 March 2007 (UTC) |

It's got screen captures, it's got news articles, spoilers, episode recaps, and a forum. It's got everything that survivorfever has and more. I'm not suggesting that WP should be a link farm. I'm suggesting that this is a valid source of lots of information, a better source than survivorfever.net, so should be linked to. |

:::If it's not an official site by the show's producers, it still qualifies as a fan site. And even though it may be better than other Survivor fansites out there in terms of content, if you add one, you'll usually be hard-pressed to refuse other Survivor fansites (of which there is a lot) into the the list, and thus is born the link-farm. But I think the more appropriate reason is that official sites should always be favored over fansites if they exist, which is definitely the case for Survivor. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 00:28, 21 March 2007 (UTC) |

:::::::I will note that survivor.com IS linked in as an external link (and the first non-official one) on the main Survivor page. I think a good compromise would be to have a See-also for the external links within each season that points back to the Ext. links from the main survivor page, and then remove any non-official sites from the individual seasons. This way, there's still a reasonable list of top fansites but limited to one place (the main survivor page), as opposed to linking into every single season. As long as the editors are selective to include more authoritative sites, such as both survivor.com and survivorfever.net, but after the offical ones, then I think that should make everyone happy. |

If an episode is not aired, it is unlikely that most 'spoilers' could be properly sourced (that episode obviously can't be used as a source).

== Occupations regarding this and past seasons == |

I was wondering why is there an inconsistency with contestant occupations? I was told (not mentioning names/usernames) that in some seasons such as Guatemala, have their occupations present. In others like Panama Exile Island don't have it and some seasons like Cook Island and Fiji have kept on changing this by adding and/or removing it for no valid reason. Can that imformation just be left alone since this information is correct and isn't abusing any article(s) at all? I really would like to hear the reasoning for this and saying it's irrelevant doesn't count. I'm hoping to get this clarified as I felt that my edits are of no value at all.

:It was talked about in Cook Islands (see [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Survivor:_Cook_Islands#Contestant_occupations]) and while no consensus was reached, the favoring view was to leave them in. But it is noted that all Survivor pages are lacking consistency, and I'm trying to see how to get a Task Force under the TV project as to set some standards for each season. Regardless , I've not been reverting changes on the contestant table if it only is adding in occupations (other spoilery or vandal info, yes). --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 14:31, 24 April 2007 (UTC) |

== Adding HII info for the table? == |

I'm wondering if, particularly in this season, if it makes sense to add in the HII holder(s) as of entering tribal council (to the best we know about) in the week-by-week summary table, using one extra column (after "Immunity") and then adding a symbol, like '+', to indicate if it is used. Obviously until this season, knowing where the HIIs were was not hard to figure, but now that we're getting HII action, this might make sense to add. I would then also add them back to past seasons where relevant. --[[User:Masem|Masem]] 21:03, 25 April 2007 (UTC) |

:I have mixed opinions on that because of the problem of verifiability. We can guess who has it as any one time, but we really don't know. Sure, Yau-Man probably has his, but does he really?

# She had a relationship with Peter Gabriel, but Wikipedia does not give pages for having relationships with celebrities |

: We had the same problem after CI, people making pages for some less than notable contestants (J.P. I think...). I think a conclusion we reached was that it's fine to actually make a "List of Contestants in Survivor: Fiji" so that the minimal details could be put in for non-notable people (and thus taking the need to have contestant occupations on the list in the season pages), and only for very notable people (usually the final 4, but like for someone like Jonathan from last season ) that page can then point to their actual wiki pages. However, if the only notable thing is that they got to the final X, and that's all that's known about them, there shouldn't be a new page.

The problem is there is nothing in the table to indicate what the town and state are supposed to represent, and I hate to see people editing back and forth without clarity of purpose. Perhaps the column should be labeled 'Contestant / Hometown' or 'Contestant / Birthplace'. Personally, I think hometown makes more sense. |

Yau Man was consider to be the 3rd place finisher and received $60,000.[6]" These tidbits are contradictory to each other. Since we've established Dreamz and Cassandra both get the $100,000.00 reward for placing, the summary should be corrected to mention they tied and Yao-Man was awarded the showing prize, yes?([[User:Foxpen|Foxpen]] 23:50, 15 May 2007 (UTC)) |

::::::I think it makes sense to combine the information in one place and reword it. Since the #5 reference does not mention Cassandra Franklin, and the #6 reference mentions Yau-Man, Cassandra, and Dreamz it makes sense to drop #5. I fixed it.

This is kind of unrelated, but myself and [[user:Gogo Dodo]] have been working on a master list of contestants [[User:Scorpion0422/Even Bigger page o' messin around|here]] which we intend to try to get to FL status. I think it is pretty close right now, but I was hoping to get some opinions from people familiar with the show on how it looks. So, if anybody has any suggestions, feel free to suggest them or implement them.

Incorrect Jury Voting Section
[edit]The article lists that all jury members voted for Cassandra, when all jury members voted instead for Earl, and the article previously mentions that he was the winner of the season. I can't edit it to look correct though, so I'm hoping someone here will be able to!

- There was an IP editor that changed the winner to Cassandra across the board. That's all been fixed. --Masem (t) 15:09, 3 January 2020 (UTC)
Survivor jury vote table discussion
[edit]There is a proposal at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television/Survivor task force#Jury vote tables to list the vote totals in the same order as the names in the finalist row immediately above the vote totals. All interested editors are invited to join that discussion. Since the Survivor task force appears to be inactive, I'm notifying Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Television/Reality television task force and the talk pages for each Survivor season in order to reach interested editors.

Inclusion of Mellisa McNulty in the contestants table
[edit]Recent editing by IPs has added this contestant into the table [1][2][3], when it's been long-established that she isn't included. As it says in the lede prose, McNulty quit before filming began; Jeff Probst even makes a brief mention about this quitting contestant right before the rest of them headed to Fiji, within the first minute of the premiere episode, though he doesn't mention the contestant by name. Since viewers never saw her face during the season, and she didn't participate once filming commenced, it is inappropriate to list her anywhere else in the article other than where it has been listed. And the number of contestants that did participate is 19, not 20, as the infobox has also been changed with these edits.
I've reverted this a couple of times now, and will make it three shortly. If the WP:CONSENSUS has changed, or is to change, regarding the addition of this non-participating contestant, please comment below. The IPs that have been doing this are also asked to head here to discuss their reasoning and try to achieve consensus. Continuation of adding this person to the contestants table without further discussion will be considered disruptive, and warnings and other sanctions may follow.

- She absolutely should not be included on the contestants' table. Bgsu98 (Talk) 21:15, 28 March 2023 (UTC)
