AV Club interview with show producer on behind-the-scenes production

Season 9 please.

Can someone please create Season 9 please. I think we should go off of the last version of the Season 8 article before the show aired, which is http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Project_Runway_(season_8)&oldid=375741251 Naraht (talk) 14:30, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This article is incorrect. Mondo Guerra was the winner of Project Runway All Stars. It's currently listed as Austin Scarlett. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.190.39.169 (talk) 01:34, 14 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New table

Hello. I've added an improved version of the table. It's chic. Something suited for Project Runway 'high' standards, as Heidi would say. :p --Imtitanium (talk) 18:50, 1 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Season 11 first air date incorrect

I'm a new user so cannot just edit the page, but at this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_runway#Season_11 the original air date should be "Jan 24, 2013", not the 25th. Can someone please edit? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dananairn (talk • contribs) 03:00, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The name Rachael Weingart needs to be removed from the first sentence of the entry, because she has never hosted the Project Runway show. Her inclusion is some kind of vandalism or joke. It should be changed to "is hosted by model Heidi Klum." 184.75.1.162 (talk) 15:12, 30 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Adding images/photos of outifts to the Season articles?

I see that the article for Season 3 has a few images of the winning designs and a model. Would it be possible to have (more) images of the designers, their designs, or models in this article and in the articles for each season? Winged Watermelon (don't text and fly) 03:31, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A cast photo in the infobox (which most likely would always be non-free) is fine, but when it comes to any individual outfit, it would have to be a photo that is free content (From commons). --MASEM (t) 03:46, 11 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-Protection for PR (All-Stars) pages!

I have noticed that PR pages have a high risk of vadalism especially the designers progress grids. I recommend to put a semi-protection for pretty much every PR page.

Article WP:OR

I have tagged each of the articles contestant progress chart with "{{Original research|table}}" for the following reasons:

Stating a contestant did HIGH or LOW in almost all of the cases is WP:Original Research. In the show, aside from some cases where the host makes it clear who made it to the top, the presenter does not explicitly say who did bad and who did good.
A reliable source, including the source material, can not be provided where it states which contestants placement was; Top or Bottom.
To infer that most of these contestants are the Top/Bottom, one must interpret from the source material's comments about their performance, about how they did and decide if they did good or bad. Since not everyone's perspectives are the same, there is not a 100% way to WP:Verify this information.

Proposal

Remove all of the unsourced HIGHs and LOWs that have to be interpreted from the source material and leave the ones that the presenter clearly states are in the Top/Bottom, which would not leave many in each respective seasons.

In the show, after the judges interview the 6 designers they brought back, they have their little "private" discussion, and here it is clear who placed where, as Heidi uses langage like "Let's talk about the designers we liked", or "let's talk about the designers at the bottom". I don't think it's OR most of the time. --MASEM (t) 14:42, 29 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
