When to update

As far as I'm aware, in the past we haven't edited until it finished on CBS. Why are you all editing it now? Stjimmy61892 (talk) 02:01, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

We have an editor who lives in Canada and got it on time. Stop removing the results.—Ryulong (竜龙) 02:02, 20 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

As far as I'm aware, the page is editted as and when the episode is aired on TV, during it airing even(As it's easier).86.15.195.205 (talk) 21:47, 3 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And it does not matter who gets the show first. They have the right to update the page when it airs in their locality.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:35, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
And in this case it was just a rare occurance that the show was aired elsewhere before CBS did, I don't think this is really an issue anymore, but good to have in the open for future reference if it does happen again anyway 86.15.195.205 (talk) 20:19, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
CBS is always in a delay, meaning Canada's get the show earlier most of the time. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 21:15, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I haven't heard of that before. CBS does sometimes have over runs, but airs Amazing Race ontime most of the time.86.15.195.205 (talk) 00:23, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I shouldn't have said always but it is most of the time in delay. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 00:25, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
CBS will have delays due to sports, while it was an extreme rarity for CTV to decide to air everything 2 hours early for the Oscars.—Ryulong (竜龙) 00:26, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Attention US viewers

"To US editors: Canadians got episode 2 early. Per WP:SW, do NOT revert any edits just because it is a spoiler." Intoronto1125TalkContributions 23:18, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Leg 3 pit stop greeter

Well, I saw this gorgeous young lady as a greeter in the pit stop and it's actually Fiorella Migliore Template:It icon who crowned Miss Italia nel Mondo 2008. Any thoughts? ApprenticeFan work 14:32, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's probably something that should be sourceable to confirm, though I've not seen it yet. We need to be careful on just visual appearances, as the guy from last week could have been mistaken as a pro soccer superstar (he wasn't) . --MASEM (t) 14:44, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That's really her, seen the picture on Phil's Twitter account, can we just confirm? [1] ApprenticeFan work 14:52, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
We never mention Pit Stop greeters. Hell, leg 2's was more important.—Ryulong (竜龙) 20:34, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually we do mention notable greeters, at least in Seasons 13 and 16. Then again, I distinctly remember Phil's father introducing himself as such during that episode; I don't remember if Bao Xishun did. I don't see a problem with mentioning Migliore in that section if we can properly source it. —KuyaBriBriTalk 20:45, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Well, if it was not specifically mentioned in the show, then I don't see why it's necessary for us to state it.—Ryulong (竜龙) 20:47, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It doesn't do any harm if included and properly sourced, but ultimately is not critical to having a complete article. I'm not going to add it myself, but if someone else does I wouldn't remove it. —KuyaBriBriTalk 20:54, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Rachel & Dave

I think this additional comment is somehow interesting and can be added to the article. "They are also the first team to stay in the race after failing to complete a task." This is something like the cowboys Jet & Cord where they are the first team who went from the last place, completed a speed bump, and became first in the next leg. 07 Matthew (talk) 04:51, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is not important. Neither was the mention in the other article about Jet & Cord.—Ryulong (竜龙) 04:55, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's also not true (even though Phil did say it). In Season 7, remember Rob couldn't finish the challenge where they had to eat like 4 pounds of meat, and he started talking others into also not doing it, so he wouldn't be the only one with a penalty. There were 3 teams who took a 4 hour penalty for not completing the task, and I don't think any of them were eliminated that leg. --LarryJeff (talk) 16:07, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
He said did not complete any task, as remember they never completed the detour as well (they used the express pass). Intoronto1125TalkContributions 00:32, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It is ultimately not important to mention.—Ryulong (竜龙) 01:17, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
