Contestant articles
editDo any of the non-finalist contestants of the Star Academy franchise have their own articles? What's the policy on this? Are they different from the Idol series "policy"? --Howard the Duck 13:30, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- I don't know, but I'm already thinking of prodding Yeng Constantino's article since she is only known for being a contestant and she hasn't broken to that mold yet. - 上村七美 | talk 15:37, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- Ok, I'll slap it with prod2 for back up. --Howard the Duck 15:45, 8 October 2006 (UTC)
- Prod in place. - 上村七美 | talk 08:42, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
- Prod2 added. --Howard the Duck 08:59, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

Love teams
editIMHO this article should list the love teams ABS-CBN is trying to create in this program. --Howard the Duck 18:26, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
- I don't but the only ones I know are RJxYeng and Jay-RxIya. And since I don't religiously follow PDA as I did with PBB and Philippine Idol, I don't have extensive info about these relationships.
- That'll be fine with me. The inclusion of other events inside the "Academy" would be welcome, too. --Howard the Duck 14:52, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
- I think the loveteams section would be good. There's this trend in PDA now that loveteams are slowly being torn apart. First was the Geoff-Irish "loveteam", where Geoff was expelled. Next the RJ-Yeng (Churvers) loveteam where RJ was expelled. Then we have the Jay-R-Iya (Iyatsoy) Loveteam where Iya was expelled. THis is folloed by the Davey-Chai loveteam where Chai was expelled (the closest match-up ever at 6-5). The the latst loveteam to be torn apart is the Ronnie-Michelle or "Dawgsters" loveteam -- loveteam because they are calling each other "dawg", and recently, Ronnie called Mich "Cat" and Ronnie as the "dawg". This is just a quick summary of the Loveteams in the house. BTW, the ChaRing or Chad-Rosita loveteam-to-be is still in the academy.
- Aside from "loveteams", other sections can be added like other notable events aside from their singing, etc. Just make sure to cite them. --Howard the Duck 08:24, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Scholars or contestants?
editI think it's more appropriate that we call the contestants "scholars" than "contestants." -- ユージェイ 03:47, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- Fame Academy alternates with "students" and "contestants." IMHO, we should remove jargon like "scholars", there are people who are not familiar with the program and so the article should use the more widely-used "contestant." Same with "expulsion night" should be changed into "elimination night," etc. --Howard the Duck 08:53, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- I understand. The terms "expulsion night," "on probation," and "dropped out" are already okay and understood, but it's all right with me if you changed them to "elimination night," "nominated," and "walked," respectively. I don't know whether the other members who edit the article every week will agree on this. -- ユージェイ 14:58, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- I was thinking of this since last night. There should be a definition of terms section in this article. - 上村七美 | talk 11:46, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
I would like to reemphasize that Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, and as such, should be avoiding jargon only the avid viewers know, such as "scholars." As for expulsion nights, etc., I'll be finding more appropriate terms for these fanspeak. --Howard the Duck 02:50, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
Pics
editCan somebody label them, like from left to right, Scholar A, Scholar B, etc.? --Howard the Duck 08:51, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- I'll do it, even the hosts. -- ユージェイ 14:58, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- How about using the most popular name? The caption is longer than the pic. Thanks. --Howard the Duck 16:12, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- I used their first names. Is that okay? -- ユージェイ 16:26, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- I think that'll be fine. --Howard the Duck 16:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Hosts
editBy the way, do you think we should create a section about the show's hosts? We could put the uploaded pictures of the hosts in that section and add important information, such as their roles in the show, reason why Roxanne Barcelo hosted the UpLate show, and etc. With references, of course. -- ユージェイ 16:26, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
Is it real? Billy Crawford will be hosting the second season of PDA? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.53.208.71 (talk) 12:50, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Table
editso what happens to the table after the 12th expulsion night?RebSkii 19:36, 27 November 2006 (UTC)
Fair use pics
editCurrently this page has 8 fair use pics, with the finale alone having 4. We'd have to let go on some of the pics. Any suggestions? --Howard the Duck 04:00, 17 December 2006 (UTC)
RJ And Yeng
editPlease let them sing If we fall in love, in ASAP, and Homeboy.
They are very good team. And their songs are really nice and for the young at hearts.

about the Salamat album of Yeng
editWe are fans of Yeng and Rj, here in a London hospital, England, and whrnever we watch TFC, we always wait for their appearance. How we wish, they would have a teleserye, and a duet of "If we fall in love",please, they make a very good pair.Thanks so much. We look forward to seeing them together when Yeng promotes her album.

Controversies
editShould we put the controversies that Jay-R, Irish, Chad and Panky got into? Madapaka 03:03, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Hale's visit
editShouldn't Hale be included in the list of those people who visited the Academy? The band was a special guest for Yeng's 18th birthday.Sammyluvlucas 02:20, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
Season 2 separate page
editABS-CBN has already been broadcasting season 2 as a small program on PBBTE every Saturdays. The 32 finalists are already mentioned in WRR 101.9 and season 2 will now premiere this May and it is now April. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Keyboard 12 (talk • contribs) 09:20, 12 April 2008 (UTC)
- Once they start production then a season 2 article can be fleshed out. Teasers aren't enough to merit a separate article. --Howard the Duck 15:25, 13 April 2008 (UTC)
- They are not teasers, please watch it if you want to know. They introduce the upcoming scholars of the show. It is a 15-minute program every Saturday between the run of PBBTE. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.1.53.2 (talk) 10:43, 16 April 2008 (UTC)
I think it's time to make a separate article for Season 2. This article is quite messed up with the constant addition of season 2 information.LordBelly06 (talk) 12:50, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
- The article has been split. Since a Roman numeral II is used for season two, I decided to name to separate season articles as the following: Pinoy Dream Academy (season I) and Pinoy Dream Academy (season II). Enjoy re-editing! - 上村七美 (Nanami-chan) | talkback | contribs 17:36, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

UNFAIR JUDGING
editHI,
May we know what are your cretiria for judging the event last night? Is it attitude or performances? By far, Laarni should should have been the winner. Judging from her performances and difficulty level rendered first and foremost should have been the criteria for judging and given top priority. Liezel did not even perform par compare to Laarni and with regards to hi-notes in comparison to Laarni. We are not knowledgiable in music like Mr. Cayabyab but practically speaking and commom sense dictates that Laarni beat Liezel fair and square.
Why did the mentor saved Bunny and not Laarni, when we knew for a fact that Bunny is not physically fit to continue beacause of her throat cyst problem and need complete bed rest to recover, while Laarni is full of potential to become a great singer. I am thinking that teacher Monet had something to do with this or he influenced his co-mentors against Laarni due to her attitude? or maybe he is too biased against Laarni.
Look what happened against Poy, Laarni simply outdone, outsang her in every rounds and was very much affected by Laarni's awesome talent that she didn't even knew what hit her, Listen as to what the judges said guys about Laarni's performances. Your taking it personally, against her and not based on her talent or it is a conspiracy to removed Laarni because she's the only one who is capable to beat Liezel and she's your favorite. If it so It's "LUTONG MAKAW" right from the start, right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.3.107.39 (talk) 01:23, 3 August 2008 (UTC)
