Would we have to keep all chasers' nicknames on the international versions in this section, or are their real names on the table enough?!
If not then I would say no. 90.249.136.231 ( talk) 17:46, 23 December 2021 (UTC)
Can we just make page for Darragh Ennis, in here, Wikipedia? Because the other Chasers does have their own page here, and not for Darragh, one of most successfully quizzer in UK...
There, would be great to add facts by his tv-shows and his scientist projects, as well the main facts and history, and so on... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.240.131.100 ( talk) 12:21, 22 June 2020 (UTC)

This section provides sources that show the premiere date of each season, but within the linked sources, there is no statement that the date listed as "end date" is the final episode of the season. The start date for following seasons also do not give a clear source for the number of episodes aired during the first season. Can anyone provide a source for either the episode count or the final episode within a season? AldezD ( talk) 02:29, 24 July 2014 (UTC)
I find it amusing that all of my recent attempts to improve the style and phrasing of the article were reverted by another editor using MoS and grammatical arguments when, in fact, most of them were improvements according to MoS and grammatical principles. For instance, when series are mentioned in articles the preferred style is "Season 1" not "season 1". They are treated as proper nouns and capitalised as such. Otherwise it should be "the first season" and so on. If any of my specific edits are clearly incorrect according to the MoS then fix them instead of just doing a mass revert. It is this kind of WP:OWN behaviour by some editors which causes unecessary conflict. Afterwriting ( talk) 14:14, 6 August 2014 (UTC)
How come there's an end date for the celeb specials but not the main ones? Shouldn't they be readded? Unreal7 ( talk) 19:07, 3 September 2015 (UTC)

The number of episodes needs to change from 915 to 910. 2A02:C7D:B394:3800:E892:3F93:3C57:16B8 ( talk) 21:09, 7 July 2016 (UTC)
Please do not add non- WP:V information about the creators of this article. If these individuals are creators, a WP:V source needs to accompany an edit adding them to the infobox. AldezD ( talk) 13:48, 4 January 2017 (UTC)
I know one of the creators named above but do not work on the programme. Can you explain how the original change was allowed? Their names should never have been deleted in the first place. Look on http://ukgameshows.com/ukgs/The_Chase This is a very reliable source for the creators of the programme. ( Feelgoodbingo ( talk) 13:42, 15 January 2017 (UTC))
But that does not address my original point of why it was changed in the first place. For 7 years, the correct creators were listed. Why was this allowed to be changed last year? What sources did they provide? ( Feelgoodbingo ( talk) 17:50, 15 January 2017 (UTC)) Look at this clip https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VrkQPC3XiXQ It's an early episode clearly listing the creators/devisers — Preceding unsigned comment added by Feelgoodbingo ( talk • contribs) 17:57, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
Great. Sorry, I don't know how to add that as a source. I think the best thing is to exclude Kelpie and Allison as creators and list Carvalho, Faherty, Gepp, Johnson, Pritchard and Wilson. f I add them, can you add the source for me? Thanks ( Feelgoodbingo ( talk) 19:53, 15 January 2017 (UTC))
Please stop changing the episode count in the infobox without providing a source that meets WP:V. The count of 1,000 episodes as of 29 September 2016 is accurate based upon the linked reference. AldezD ( talk) 14:50, 9 January 2017 (UTC)
question: is Jenny Ryan exclusive to the celebrity specials (that is, seen if not exactly featured in most of them)? As far as I can tell, she seems to be... Visokor ( talk) 10:11, 28 July 2017 (UTC)
As per this website, Barnstorm Games released a major update to The Chase app. It features all five Chasers, commentary from Bradley Walsh, the ability to take a selfie in the app, and multiplayer mode where one player plays as the Chaser while the others play as the contestants. Should this update be mentioned in the article? TheSecondLugia ( talk) 16:39, 20 November 2017 (UTC)
Please add the Text Santa specials for consideration.
Please put dates when episodes were cancelled up for consideration and the reasons that these episodes were cancelled on their originally scheduled air date. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Dan Gallagher ( talk • contribs) v (UTC)
@ User:Dave Harton, please stop adding episode lists to this article. This has been discussed ad nauseam:

There is obviously more than one chaser in the Israeli version: [1]. I do not understand a single word, but the one wearing glasses seems to be called something like Yakobi (which I find quite funny, as one of our German chasers is called Sebastian Jacoby). -- slg ( talk) 13:06, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
Hello, I have the wish to write an article for the english wikipedia which deals with the German pendant (Gefragt - Gejagt) in details. One of my reasons is, to save the German logo of the show (with reduced resolution), provided with the american/english license {{Non-free logo|image has rationale=yes}} . Please tell me your oppinion here. Best wishes from Berlin. 44Pinguine ( talk) 18:18, 21 October 2018 (UTC)

Update
As of 2nd February 2022, I can't see any evidence online it is real. Can someone confirm for me if it is, I will delete that entry on the table if I find no sources. ThisIsNotAShill ( talk) 23:50, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

To add Vikkstar123 as one of the chasers from the show because he was in a special version of the chase Bbetter1712 ( talk) 10:06, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
So far all the reversals for including Vikram Barn in the chaser section appear to only be rejected based on the lack of reliable sources. Once that criteria has met would he be included in the proper 'Chasers' section or just relegated to the specials subsection? If the latter then surely Issa Schultz should also only be relegated to a specific specials subsection considering they only appeared in a single special. Regardless of which outcome is decided it should be at least based on keeping the article consistent rather than the current inconsistent state.
