Semi-protected edit request on 15 November 2019

I don't know how to edit and write these things properly, but the whole "contestant progress" has been changed based on personal preferences, and favouring the editor's favorite contestant. The whole thing is far from reality. Indivem (talk) 17:35, 15 November 2019 (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. —KuyaBriBriTalk 19:16, 15 November 2019 (UTC)

Currently working on Frock4Life, if any page watchers can think of any improvements ahead of a possible Good article nomination. Thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 02:42, 10 March 2021 (UTC)

Amend special guests section

The article for Katya should redirect to Katya Zamolodchikova instead of the page for the generic name.

That is, replace [[Katya]] with [[Katya Zamolodchikova|Katya]] Naraht (talk) 00:10, 4 May 2021 (UTC)

 Done  — Amakuru (talk) 11:14, 5 May 2021 (UTC)

The article should change the link from [[World of Wonder (company)#WOW Presents Plus|WOW Presents Plus]] to [[WOW Presents Plus]] Naraht (talk) 13:23, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Episodes 2, 4 and 5's contestant progress tables

As per the earlier post, it bears repeating that the contestant progress table must be in line with Drag Race table guidelines as per every other season of Drag Race.

Episode 2

A HIGH either indicates positive feedback from judges' critiques OR being automatically placed HIGH due to winning a team challenge.

Contestants who are on a winning team during team challenges are automatically placed HIGH unless Ru mentions "in the challenge you worked as teams, but tonight you'll be judged individually". This means that for example, Vinegar Strokes receives a HIGH in Week 2 despite perhaps not a strong performance, because she was part of the team that overall gave a better performance.

However, Divina De Campo CANNOT place HIGH on week 2 because she was on a losing team. It is true that Divina received positive feedback, but the fact remains that their whole team lost the challenge, hence why Divina is not LOW and is SAFE (with critiques), because that's exactly what she is - SAFE for another week, having received critiques as part of a losing team. This falls in line with the other team members of the winning team all being HIGH.

This is the SAME situation for every other season of Drag Race's contestant progress chart. For example, Jinkx Monsoon received some good comments from the judges on week 2 of Season 5, but is ultimately SAFE (with critiques) as she was on one of the two losing teams (with the WINNING team all being placed HIGH).

PLEASE keep consistency.

Episode 4

Blu Hydrangea was ultimately called SAFE before the ensuing judges' critiques, and therefore cannot place HIGH, despite receiving a few quips from Ru about her performance.

Episode 5

Cheryl follows the same rules as Divina; not being able to place HIGH as part of the losing team. The confusion appears to arise due to there not being a HIGH placement that week. That's because all three of the other team were declared winners. If, for example, Divina had been singled out of the Frock Destroyers as the winner, Baga and Blu would have been given the automatic HIGH placement. However, all three were given WINs.

I think the confusion here is whether Cheryl Hole should be HIGH, SAFE, or LOW. She is part of the losing team, so I can understand the LOW placement. However, she did receive primarily positive critiques (and ultimately got a positive critique at the end so she wasn't quite Bottom 3), so you could say HIGH. I think cornsilk SAFE is the most accurate placement for her there, and it would stop the edit warring since it's just neutral. (Bleachies (talk) 00:04, 27 August 2020 (UTC))


Please keep consistency across this entire season and do not edit based on personal preference or confusion of the rules/guidelines. Thanks, Ellis.o22 (talk) 15:31, 20 November 2019 (UTC)

Episode 4 & 5

"HIGH" means either receiving positive critiques or being in the winning team; Blu was declared safe and did not receive critiques on Snatch Game, so there is no reason for her to be HIGH, Cheryl was in the losing team on episode 5 regardless of her positive critiques, she must get a SAFE since she was not in the winning team. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 181.58.59.243 (talk) 19:28, 11 November 2019 (UTC)
