Way back when it was first proposed to have other Survivor versions from outside the US (I won't say whose idea it was :)), everyone knew some would not have enough information but it was decided to have them anyway and now it feels like every six moths this is discussed.

1. There is nothing wrong with looking like Wikipedia. That is a very good site and one of the better known in the world :)

2. Let's not be xenophobes and exclude some versions just because they aren't popular. It's all or nothing. If it's decided that they are going to be deleted, all of them should be deleted, without exceptions.

3. LOL at the thought of being ashamed because of a site. But if that is really a problem I suggest just having the season page, without contestants', tribes' and episodes' pages. At least until someone can add ~real content~. One way for the season page to have more information and not be just a page with a lot of tables, is to have the episode guide like it was being formated a few seasons ago with descriptions of challenges/tribal councils (is that still a thing? things here change so fast that I can't keep up).

As a side note, you should really stop with the dictatorial attitude, Ian. This is just a site for a TV show that nobody wins anything for editing it. If people come here to edit the pages, it's because they like doing it and t help the wiki to grow. Nobody wants to read "speak now or lose all your work forever".


 * 1) Wikia is not Wikipedia.
 * 2) It's not so much excluding the other versions. Let's be realistic here. 70% of our pages, US or international, barely have any info in them. Also, the admin panel is spread too thin and couldn't handle all of them. So for the sake of manageability, this has to happen.
 * 3) Survivor Wiki has increased traffic over the years. Ground control to you, Lincoln.

As for your side note (which pisses me off by the way): 1. And? What does that have to do with anything I said?
 * If I'm a dictator, I would've just said "fuck you all" and went about deleting them without your consent. If I'm a dictator, I would've taken credit for the creation of this wiki because I edit here more than all of you combined. But no, I choose not to engage on this further because this is not the topic at hand.

2. I'm pretty sure you got the numbers wrong there. And I just gave a suggestion for that in point 3 of my post and it wasn't even acknowledged by you.

3. Again, what does that have to do with anything I said?

And I never said you are a dictator, but you can have a pretty rude and authoritarian atittude. I believe I have already said this about you before. And everytime you fail to acknowledge that and change it, you will just keep throwing people off from this site. And I'm pretty sure you got your numbers wrong there². But yeah, as you said, this is not the topic here, but you should just think about it :)
