Re-creating this article

edit

I have decided to start the article just to get some sense of how much information is actually out there and to make clear what is possible with these articles. I appreciate that if the Amazing Race 5 AFD fails this will probably have to be deleted too.

If people are going to expand this (am just saving what I've started, still have 10 of the teams to add) please note that it needs to be well referenced with citations from reputable mainstream news sources (not from places like "realitytvrules.com" and the like). -- PageantUpdatertalk | contribs | esperanza 22:00, 20 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

My suggestion: Rename this page as "Notable Contestants from The Amazing Race", then have a section for each season. This solves two problems. First, you don't have to include any team that lacks any additional information beyond their CBS bio (like most of the first or second eliminated teams). Second, it cuts down page cruft, though each season can have a link from their season page to this. (this also helps with All Star re-referencing.) —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Masem (talkcontribs) 05:21, 21 February 2007 (UTC).Reply

Infobox

edit

The infobox adds some relevant information to the article. --evrik (talk) 20:43, 26 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

This is an article on the contestants not the race route or filming information. Those details are already contained in the main article. --Madchester 20:45, 26 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
If you would like to discuss my proposed changes, please put up a straw poll surveying the opinion of other editors. Please remember that you do not own an article so please be open to suggestions from other editors. Please try to be more co-operative with other editors and assume good faith Thanks! :-) --Madchester 20:52, 26 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
  • It's funny you say that, because I was thinking of the same thing. You make it very hard to WP:AGF because you make so many unilateral changes based on your personal preferences. A poll is fine with me. --evrik (talk) 21:09, 26 February 2007 (UTC)Reply
