Croatia

Why is Croatia still included when the reference doesn't support its inclusion?

"Štengl said that the new process starts as soon as they rest a little. We are going to work on new contract proposals, open a new competition with the hope that performers of all different types of music, young and old, will apply for the wave LET 3, Baby Lasagna. Whoever has a good product should apply, he said."

That statement not a confirmation of participation, only that there will be some sort of a national contest, likely Dora — IмSтevan ^talk 20:23, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

Just because he didn't use the word "Eurovision" in that sentence doesn't mean he wasn't talking about Eurovision in the overall context. The whole conversation is about Eurovision, not about Dora directly. On top of that, he even emphasized the success of the last two representatives, this success is an obvious reference to the result at Eurovision. It's obvious that the "new process" refers to the next choice of representative. Really looking for forceful reasons has nothing to do with taking care of this article, but only damaging it by removing correct information. Szyign (talk) 21:04, 10 August 2024 (UTC)

It's really not that obvious, and I'm a native speaker — IмSтevan ^talk 06:59, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Can you quote the part where you think he emphasized the success of the last two representatives? I am unable to locate it. Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 09:59, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Štengl je rekao kako novi proces kreće čim se malo odmore. Idemo raditi nove prijedloge ugovora, otvoriti novi natječaj uz nadu da će se na valu LET 3, Baby Lasagne prijavljivati izvođači svih različitih vrsta glazbe, mladi, stari. Tko god ima dobar proizvod, neka se prijavi, rekao je. [Štengl said that the new process starts as soon as they rest a little. We are going to work on new contract proposals, open a new competition with the hope that performers of all different types of music, young and old, will apply for the wave LET 3, Baby Lasagna. Whoever has a good product should apply, he said. Szyign (talk) 14:14, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

In my opinion this is enough, they announce that anyone can apply for the selection 79.22.132.190 (talk) 14:18, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Never said that it's a Eurovision selection, just that they can apply (for some contest) — IмSтevan ^talk 18:00, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Given that in the sentence next to it he mentioned "the success of Baby Lasagna and LET 3," it is obvious that he had in mind the opening of the next edition of the same format from which they originated. The whole conversation is about Eurovision, why would he suddenly be talking about another contest? It doesn't make one bit of sense. Szyign (talk) 18:23, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

The source must explicitly state the fact; it cannot be inferred, otherwise it amounts to original research. Some news outlets and blogs might be comfortable enough to publish this as fact, but Wikipedia is not a news website and we can only add what others have reliably published already. Grk1011 (talk) 19:02, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Okay, changed the source to news outlet which was used in recent years and a blog, hope this is what you meant Szyign (talk) 19:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

They only hinted at LET 3 and Baby Lasagna having good product when they first qualified, and not them being successful at Eurovision when they did it. Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 19:12, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Native speaker here. I am not sure how a clear, direct confirmation that selection will occur again does not hint at Eurovision. It clearly does and if that wasn't enough - the whole setence mentioning good product is quite literally refering to their previous Eurovision songs/artists. It would be really really weird if they went from Eurovision in the first setence to something totally unrelated. Or perhaps basic reading & comprehension is somehow beyond you? The only other infomation one can gather from Štengl's statment is that the selection will be different, perhaps even rebranded as the name Dora is not mentioned - however, what is mentioned is that there will be selection, it will be for Eurovision and possibly somehow different/new/improved. 79.163.239.93 (talk) 19:38, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Stevan, Could you please stop arguing with them? The Unlogged user and Szyign are right. Btw the fact that you are native speaker doesn't mean that you know something better than others. What country will be deleting next because someone find out the another pointless problem? Croatian Head Of Delegation definitely has said it about Eurovision - literally the whole article is about Eurovision, of course that they suddenly didn't mentioned about random festival in Croatia. You should realized that not everything will be write explicitly. Stevan, stop looking for second bottom in this article that's about Croatian participation in Eurovision Song Contest 2025. Aaestikk (talk) 20:10, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

"The fact that you are native speaker doesn't mean that you know something better than others" - Does this apply to the unlogged user too?

"What country will be deleting next because someone find out the another pointless problem?" - We are not deleting any country, Croatia was only moved from the table to the explanation beneath it:

• Croatia – On 15 May 2024, Croatian Head of delegation Tomislav Štengl stated that he hopes that various artists from different genres and ages will apply to the new edition of their national contest. ref

Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 21:10, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

I never stated I know more than others. I simply suggested that the translation to english might make statement appear vague, thus causing this whole overinterpretation - while it does not seem to be that vague in the original. 79.163.239.93 (talk) 21:18, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

I would appreciate if you could explain how it is less vague in the original.

Because in the French discussion, a native editor explained it, roughly "there is no future tense in the original French". Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 22:09, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

"the whole setence mentioning good product is quite literally refering to their previous Eurovision songs/artists" - perhaps, but this is still original research which is not allowed.

"perhaps basic reading & comprehension is somehow beyond you?" - i don't know, but this is personal attack which is uncivil. Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 21:07, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

This isn't any attack. It's a civil request not to overthink a very well defined statement that did confirm selection for Eurovision is not because... It doesn't mention the name of the selection they have been using previously? This doesn't make sense. I honestly think you're just trolling. 79.163.239.93 (talk) 21:15, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

It is evidently not a very well defined statement because good faith editors are disagreeing here. I think that you intended to be civil, but "I honestly think you're just trolling" is unacceptable, as there are strict civility standards which includes "avoid name-calling", "avoid condescension", "avoid appearing to ridicule", there are really no exception here, including if you are honest. Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 22:06, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Then maybe try avoiding doing that? So far we presented multiple elaborations to show you why your point is weak. You didn't post anything that would defy that in anyway aside of one quote that, I explained in my original statement why it's irrelevant, and frankly even if it wasn't,. It still doesn't prove anything either way. If you still don't understand than I don't know what else can I say aside of repeating what I already said. 79.163.239.93 (talk) 22:45, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

Uhm, how is reading with understanding the statements of the head of the Croatian delegation an "original research"? Original research is what I would call personally contacting him about the matter or other forms of unofficial information-gathering. Here we have information on a platter straight from an interview moments after the Eurovision final in which he speaks throughout the interview about Eurovision and talks about the success of Croatia's representatives at Eurovision, and "when they rest a little" they will open the selection for the next representative. I really don't understand what is incomprehensible about this. Szyign (talk) 22:06, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

I fail to see where he talks about the success of Croatia's representatives at Eurovision, it appears that they are discussing how they perceive they are treated unfairly. Could you quote where he talked about it? (other than the disputed "... for the wave LET 3, Baby Lasagna. Whoever has a good product should apply, he said") Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 22:21, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

yes. Good products should apply - for national final mentioned before. You know that part you conveniently cut off. 79.163.239.93 (talk) 22:47, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

"Štengl said that the new process starts as soon as they rest a little. We are going to work on new contract proposals, open a new competition with the hope that performers of all different types of music, young and old, will apply for the wave LET 3, Baby Lasagna. Whoever has a good product should apply, he said." Szyign (talk) 23:02, 12 August 2024 (UTC)

He didn't talk about their success, but their good product when they first started for 2024, and their rest when they completed in 2024. It is original research to say they talked about their success, when they did not even come close to saying so after abundant opportunity, and on the other side they mainly talk about perceived unfairness. It is even more original research to say they confirmed participation based on this. I also agree on circular sourcing brought up by Stevan. Sir Kenneth Kho (talk) 08:28, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

Hasn’t Croatia Confirm Participation 2A02:C7C:D6DF:1500:7C6A:55A5:7D62:B1F3 (talk) 13:56, 2 September 2024 (UTC)

 Comment: It wouldn't make sense to respond to one comment at a time, so I'll do it here. IP user needs to stop making personal attacks, Szyign, you used sources that aggregate the list of countries, with EurovisionWorld possibly using Wikipedia, and the second one copying information from the Wikipedia article in an uncanny manner. These would both be breaches of WP:CIRCULAR, and the lack of references in my search for any site reporting on the confirmation, let alone a reliable one, tells me that I'm right in my assessment that Wikipedia was used as a reference in both cases. Either a proper reference is provided, or Croatia gets removed from the list as unsourced material — IмSтevan ^talk 03:43, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

So you don't do original research this way? Double standards. Szyign (talk) 09:29, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

I would greatly appreciate you showing me where I did it so I can either find a better reference or remove content that is original research. Besides, whataboutism isn't gonna help you here, original research is not allowed and that's that — IмSтevan ^talk 10:34, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

This whole discussion is quite bizarre. Just wait for a better source. It doesn't really matter if Croatia's official confirmation comes later. We're not a news website. Grk1011 (talk) 16:58, 13 August 2024 (UTC)

norway will likely withdraw

norway can not participate, because the date collides with their national day. unless the date is changed, norway can not even air the final. 84.208.108.74 (talk) 15:40, 30 August 2024 (UTC)

No they won't, Norway has already confirmed their plans and participation. Pulling out now would only cause damage to NRK, plus their application deadline is tomorrow.

There are plentiful of alternative solutions as well. The show is broadcasted from 21:00, so NRK will have the entire day to air other event related stuff. Take the Serbian broadcast this year as an example, the show was temporarily disrupted due to the Chinese president's visit. Disruption of broadcasting the contest has happened very often even.

It's an "international" broadcast even, made possible by lots of European broadcasters and people from all over the world. If some people can't work on specific days, others can. Real Heydavid17 (talk) 02:28, 31 August 2024 (UTC)

Most broadcasters operate multiple channels, and so does NRK (NRK 1, 2 and 3 for example), that enable them to air multiple different programs at the same time. Do you think Eurovision never collides with anything in any country? — IмSтevan ^talk 13:30, 1 September 2024 (UTC)

their withdrawal is already confirmed by a message to the EBU which is why the EBU does not need to worry about 17th may, as norway never had any intention of participating anyway. 84.208.108.74 (talk) 00:27, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Source? If they never had any intention of participating why did they confirm participation in July? Valenciano (talk) 08:50, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

Ukraine’s Participation

I highly expect they will confirm very soon but the source linked does not provide any confirmation of their participation. It discusses details of the 2024 and 2025 contests and ends with a general overview which mentions Suspilne is responsible for selecting the representatives and songs that represent Ukraine however, it does not mention this in regard to 2025 nor does it say they plan to continue this role, only that they have been responsible in the past.

Why Croatia and Estonia aren’t on the participant’s list and map?

Croatia and Estonia said they will participate but why aren’t they on the participant’s list and map? Achichorta11 (talk) 07:17, 15 September 2024 (UTC)

From what I gathered in this discussion thread, it's because the sources are not official enough for it to count as confirmation. For example, an estonian journalist confirming estonia's participation without a sufficient source isn't enough to count as a water-tight confirmation of participation.

Thanks, but those are all speculative or unconfirmed. The other countries section is reserved for broadcasters that have made outright efforts for the specific year/contest. Grk1011 (talk) 14:07, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

Is the point not to show the information, short of participation confirmed, that we know so far? We can put these points in a factual manner for those interested in knowing it, and I think this is relevant info in terms of other countries. Hwikipedianuk (talk) 17:37, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

"Viewers around the world can vote up for 20 songs, and their votes are distributed proportionally" is not accurate for participating countries. Can someone with editing access change this to reflect the same wording as 2024's page? Hwikipedianuk (talk) 17:40, 25 September 2024 (UTC)

Malta’s Participation

I don’t wanna edit the page but Malta still hasn’t confirmed their participation and the link that is both used in this article and by Eurovoix doesn’t work. Only the songwriting camp and MESC were confirmed and now the submissions page is inactive and has been for a while. They’ve never actually mentioned Eurovision participation and at the very least, it’s weird we have a citation that doesn’t work. This is exactly what happened with Albania too and they only just confirmed last week for real. Seems strange to include them when the rest have all made clear statements of participation. Aaboucher.ajb (talk) 17:22, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

If they confirmed MESC That Means They're Competing 2A02:C7C:D6DF:1500:1D03:ADB2:3D75:C37 (talk) 15:55, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

That’s not how that works. National Finals are separate from Eurovision and there is no statement in the rules of MESC that the winner must go to Eurovision. PBS have never released a statement, only sharing a link that now no longer works. No reliable Eurovision news site has them confirmed either. Aaboucher.ajb (talk) 16:07, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

Similar with Hungary they still do A Dal which was the national selection for Hungary but the winner doesn't go to Eurovision 2A02:C7C:D6DF:1500:1D03:ADB2:3D75:C37 (talk) 18:35, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

MESC is definitely not separate from Eurovision though, hell it has "Eurovision" in the name, however I don't see a problem with removing them for now given the submissions page is down and PBS/TVM haven't revealed anything about their selection. Violatie (talk) 22:07, 10 October 2024 (UTC)

 Declined - Needs to be officially confirmed by Eurovision. MadGuy7023 (talk) 23:04, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

No it doesn't - most of the countries here aren't confirmed to be participating by Eurovision. If we went by that metric we'd have Cyprus, Montenegro, Albania, maybe two or three more. When Eurovision officially publishes the list, probably before the end of the year, then the standard switches to that. But yes, in this case Malta probably shouldn't be present.

To be fair, in the context of the article, it is quite clear what change should be made: Netherlands be added to the list of competing countries. Yet, EurovisionFun is not a reliable source, and the original (Het Patrool) is a rumour at best. If this report is true, we'll have the official list of participants in no time, so no biggie.

This was already added to the page before you came here to say this, please check before wasting our time Toffeenix (talk) 23:42, 21 October 2024 (UTC)

This. These "something just happened"-esque posts aren't helpful in general. If you have a reliable source for any claim, you should just provide it, or even add it to the article yourself. Merely saying that something happened and then claiming that a country is "Conoeting" because of it will cause multiple people to read that message and look for sources, only for the one to actually be able add it or everyone to come up empty-handed; either way a collective waste of time. Without such a discussion, someone will stumble across a source eventually, even if it is half an hour later when they see it on their Twitter feed. Lastly, dropping the Jaden Smith style of capitalization would greatly improve the readability of your sentences. IceWelder [✉] 16:07, 22 October 2024 (UTC)

What harm does it do? If you don't want to waste time, you don't have to reply to it, right? ―Jochem van Hees (talk) 18:12, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

I don't think it's a good use of anyone's time to have to check anything this person says, or patiently explain to them that what they're saying is wrong or stupid so others won't waste their time checking it or doing the same thing. But if it's not a big deal I'm happy to open another section saying Netherland Confirmed 2025 Partcipation They not Send Joots Toffeenix (talk) 00:04, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

On that topic: Wouldn't it be information worth mentioning that Joost planed to compete (which he clearly did based on that he put it on his social media) but ultimately decided against it? Or is this a case of 'rumors don't belong on the wiki'? Just asking. Harry rey esc (talk) 06:53, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

I think this would go on the page for Netherlands in the Eurovision Song Contest 2025 once that goes up, and maybe Eurovision Song Contest 2024 if there's more information there about the resolution of this all, but I'm not sure where it would go on this page.

No link? No nothing? Is it even a reliable source? Why are you sending us on a goose chase for a citation if you already have one? IceWelder [✉] 07:44, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Please stop telling us and show us instead. Provide the link that proves this and it can be added to the article. Keep in mind what a reliable source is. Grk1011 (talk) 14:59, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. FifthFive (talk) 20:08, 28 October 2024 (UTC)

Think they mean changing Malta to purple on the map as their participation is now confirmed, which yeah it's a bit odd that was missed Toffeenix (talk) 00:37, 29 October 2024 (UTC)

Moldova should be added to the "yet to decide" section

As it stands, we are awaiting Moldova's decision. However, they are not listed in the "Other countries" section (where Romania and Poland are mentioned). They probably should be, as they've never missed ESC and were only waiting, as far as I know, to find out the result of the 2024 Moldovan European Union membership referendum last week in which closer integration to Europe was the winning vote. Therefore, especially considering there's still only 34 countries declared, the door should still be open to Moldova. Tris2000 (talk) 23:13, 24 October 2024 (UTC)

The intention is not to be a "yet to decide" section per se, just to include countries that have not announced a decision but have announced *something*, which as far as I'm aware Moldova hasn't (Australia and Armenia otherwise would be here too). If there's a source saying they're considering it or something similar then it could probably be added - I think that section used to include all participants from the previous year that hadn't announced a decision by default? But I could be misremembering. Toffeenix (talk) 02:08, 25 October 2024 (UTC)

Yes, I think that's right. Last year I'm sure it mentioned all of the previous year's, at this juncture. Anyhow, we'll find out soon enough. I would be very surprised if Moldova didn't, considering their recent referendum. Tris2000 (talk) 03:44, 29 October 2024 (UTC)
