The current table currently has all the season information combined in one table together- premiere/finale dates, number of episodes + contestants, winner, finalists, etc. Would it be fine if we could cleanup this up rather than having all this information together in one table. Surely using Template:Series overview would be better than using a custom/standard table, right?
I would think using two separate tables would be fine, such as using the tables at America's Got Talent#Judges and hosts and The Masked Singer (American TV series)#Series overview. I'm not sure if there's any template/table for judges, but as I said before, I think we'd be far off better at least using the 'Series overview' template instead of this.
Please feel free to let me know if changing this would be fine, I'd be more than happy to help/do this. (I'd also think some cleanup could be done such as the specials section below, but for now, I'm mainly interested in at least cleaning the table(s) up.) Magitroopa ( talk) 17:03, 22 April 2021 (UTC)
Alright, so with the new season now premiering tomorrow, I've decided to go ahead and start up some clean up- I'll eventually get around to cleaning up the special episodes listed here, as well as some of the lead, updating/cleaning up and changing the 'Broadcast' section into a 'Production' section, as well as clean up in the season articles as well. I've also begun an actual article for the upcoming season at MasterChef (American season 11) (was previously a redirect to the main series article), so feel free to use that now as well.
I do still also plan on getting an LoE article for MC (and possibly MCJ) soon/later on. My only issue in that regards would be that I'm not the best with colors on Wikipedia. I usually don't know what to use for colors, and usually end up using colors used for other seasons of other shows on Wikipedia, lol. I'm pretty sure there's some guidance in either an MOS or WP that colors usually should be based upon something such as DVD or season colors, which is the case for SpongeBob SquarePants. Quickly looking through the images used in the season articles for MC, the only one I can think of would possibly be an orange color (possibly #FF8000?) for season 10, the color being used to 'paint' the logo and season number in the image. If you (or anyone else who stumbles upon this discussion) would like to, it would be super helpful to have a separate/distinct color for each season- and then use that color in the infobox as well as for the episode table listing (see SpongeBob SquarePants (season 13) or other SB season articles for an example of what I'm talking about). I believe there should also be some guidance regarding this in the 'Formatting' section of MOS:TVOVERVIEW (and as it says there, colors must adhere to the color guideline).
Thanks again, and hopefully will continue cleaning up/updating the next month (or more?...). Magitroopa ( talk) 22:43, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
A recent editor attempted to change the colors of some contestant names in MasterChef and MasterChef Junior articles due to some contestants identifying as a different gender than their biological sex. This made me think that the use of the pink and blue backgrounds (to identify female/male contestants) is no longer needed seeing how gender identification has become more fluid. Bottom line, I don't think there's a need to have a pink or blue background for any contestant in either series any longer. I'm welcoming any feedback on this, but if no one comments on this within a few days, I plan on being WP:BOLD and removing the colors altogether. Feedback welcomed. - SanAnMan ( talk) 16:11, 24 August 2022 (UTC)
I think there should be an update to all the MasterChef elimination tables. The "NPT" should be phased out because there really is no difference between it and the light green "IN", which represents not being selected as a top or bottom entry in a team challenge, or the recently added light blue "HIGH", which represents a top entry in a team challenge. Under any kind of situation, the contestants in a specific team would always both be immune from elimination and would not have to cook in a pressure test at the same time. So, under my request, all the NPTs should be replaced with either a light green "IN" or a light blue "HIGH", depending on how many contestants were saved from pressure tests.
