I know I'm the one that put this in, but it's what the source said. If there's second audition that takes place in front of an audience, then the arena auditions technically haven't been "axed", have they? Unreal7 ( talk) 20:58, 18 April 2013 (UTC)

Maybe I'm being a total idiot, but each series is regularly referred to in the media by the year it takes place in, and also at the end of each series Dermot O'Leary/Kate Thornton always says "The winner of The X Factor (year) is...". Unreal7 ( talk) 12:59, 11 August 2013 (UTC)

The live shows will begin in October. It is reported that Katy Perry, Lady Gaga and Justin Timberlake will perform during the live shows. [1] — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lawsj1234 ( talk • contribs) 17:04, 17 August 2013 (UTC)
It has been reported that a 'flash vote' will be introduced this year. After all act have performed on the Saturday, viewers will then have 200 seconds to phone for their chosen singer. O'Leary will then reveal the act with the lowest amount of vote, and this act will be up for elimination. The lines will then reopen for Sunday's result show and the lowest-scoring act will join the act with the lowest votes. If the vote goes to deadlock, the act who recieve the lowest votes on Saturday will be eliminated. [2]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Lawsj1234 ( talk • contribs) 11:49, 21 August 2013 (UTC)
References
Has anyone got a reference that shows this new series starts on the 31 August, or is this just guesswork? - if there is a reference, why has it not been included? Bruno Russell ( talk) 16:32, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
When the series starts, do we put "present", or leave the date, since it's reliably referenced? – anemone projectors– 10:04, 29 August 2013 (UTC)
I don't know when the name was changed but if a source was published when they were called Associated Newspapers, the publisher should be listed as Associated Newspapers, not changed to DMG Media. Also wanted to note that websites still say they are published by Associated Newspapers, so I'm not sure it should be changed at all yet. Associated Newspapers does still exist. – anemone projectors– 12:20, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
Some references are saying that Nicola, Shane and Sinitta are all helping Louis, while others only say Nicola and Sinitta are [2] - which makes logical sense as 3 seems overkill. Are we sure that Shane is helping, and should reference to him be removed until there is more surity. Bruno Russell ( talk) 13:46, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
The Guardian and Digital Spy are reporting different viewing figures. Digital Spy says that Sunday's episode brought in 9.11m with a 35.5% share [3], but The Guardian claims it was 9.6m with a 37.6% share [4]. Who should we believe? Unreal7 ( talk) 20:56, 10 September 2013 (UTC)
I think that with the ratings table should be an extra column, next to the date, that says how long each episode was broadcast for (e.g 60 minutes, 80 minutes, 90 minutes and 120 minutes are the most common throughout the series. It's just because there is so much vary in the lengths of different episodes through the series, and I feel this is important to note. It is done with other shows that often differ in length, for example I'm a Celeb. Bruno Russell ( talk) 16:51, 21 September 2013 (UTC)
Kaz says he's still in Rough Copy. [5] Unreal7 ( talk) 12:16, 26 September 2013 (UTC)
Hey. Do you think the article should be semi-protected? There seems to have been a growing number of edits from IP addresses adding in people they believe, or want, to make it through to the live shows. I would say a semi-protect should be put on the article until such a time the finalists are confirmed on the ITV show, and they can be put on with reference. Open to opinion on the matter. Thanks Bruno Russell ( talk) 13:30, 28 September 2013 (UTC)
Should all the stuff on Sooli Roots have been removed - they came from good sources, including the Daily Mail. The X Factor is well known for twists and turns - just because she was seen going home yesterday does not mean she won't be back (for example, Sharon might not fill all her seats and thus might add someone in previously out).
I think this stuff should be re-included. What do you think? Bruno Russell ( talk) 12:27, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
He had nothing to do with bootcamp this year. Unreal7 ( talk) 21:33, 29 September 2013 (UTC)
Hi all, just wanted to let you know that last night I created redirects for all the final 24 (apart from Melanie McCabe - already redirected here - and Jade Richards - redirected elsewhere but now redirects here). You can see them all here. – anemone projectors– 11:16, 30 September 2013 (UTC)
Hey. Do we know what's going to happen if Sunday's sing off goes to deadlock. They can't go to earlier public vote as one will have had longer to collect votes. Is this where Simon Cowell will come in? Bruno Russell ( talk) 19:15, 4 October 2013 (UTC)
Do you think this needs to be changed, with two differnt colours for the bottom two, the one that was put in on the saturday after the flash vote in one colour and the one in on the Sunday in a different colour. This would then have to be inserted in the key aswell. I think it's important to distinguish when the contestant was put in, as this will effect the voting percentage they have listed.

I've reverted mine and pasted yours below, for comparison. Actually, yours is better because it's clear who loses one vote and who loses the other, and mine looks silly! They probably will release all the %s, so shall we just do it now? – anemone projectors– 15:49, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Everything fits in well, so yeah, this is great. Made one small change to the references line. – anemone projectors– 15:54, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
As I said above, this year there isn't a "bottom two" because there are two votes, so it's the person at the bottom of each vote, two "bottom ones" if you will. Also, it would be better to state in the live show details sections which vote each person lost, rather than just to say that both lost the vote (however you want to say it), so I'd rather see it go back to "lost flash vote" or something similar. Obviously I'm discussing it and not reverting it per WP:BRD. – anemone projectors– 22:03, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
I've noticed so far this year we haven't heard the words "final showdown" mentioned, only "sing off". Should we change this article to reflect that, or leave it for consistency, or wait for tonight and see what happens? (Note I will be out tonight and not watching (unless it's on at the pub)!) – anemone projectors– 10:45, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
He's featured in this article as a returning judge, but are we sure he's actually going to be featured? It seems unlikely... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonnyt 123 ( talk • contribs)
Do you think that the controversy surrounding See See (from Miss Dynamix) being pregnant should be included? - critics are saying she should be kicked out. I could write it with refs if you think it should be, but I wasn't too sure if it was notable enough to be included. What do you think? Bruno Russell ( talk) 17:34, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
When there's been a tie in the past, in the results summary table, we've always put "2 of 2 votes, deadlock". What do we put this year if it's a tie? – anemone projectors– 08:28, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
I feel that it's silly to keep saying "[Act] and [act] performed on the [n]th live results show" over and over again, and think it's better to just say something like "Performers included [list of acts]". The information is all given below in the details sections, and looking at older series, we didn't go into this much details and it reads better. Just because series 9 follows a format doesn't mean we can't change it for series 10. So because Lawsj1234 insists that we state "[Act] and [act] performed on the [n]th live results show" over and over again, I want to discuss it. Thanks all. – anemone projectors– 10:16, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

You know on The X Factor (UK series 10) page, where it says {n/a} for when Miss Dynamix didn't perform i would like you to replace it with the word "Absent". Your sincerely, MrWikis2013 MrWikis2013 ( talk) 16:21, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
Did I hear Dermot correctly in saying that there is no flash vote from here on in, meaning it will be axed for the rest of the series? -- MSalmon ( talk) 21:52, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Hey. I'm not sure how accurate is that people "not liking" who the judges have sent through is actual controversy. Some people are always going to dislike who goes through - but its not an actual controversy of this series - it happens EVERY year. People always say "I think they should have gone through" - it's never been included on previous series so don't see why it is here now. Bruno Russell ( talk) 18:58, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
How come soloists in the finalists table only have their surname when showing when the judges voted against them, but then it shows their full name in the "Eliminated" square at the bottom? Unreal7 ( talk) 01:06, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
Not getting involved in an edit war so bringing it here. Please can we remove the original (or not in most cases) artists from this table. We don't list original arists, and although in this case it's to explain the reason a song was chosen for the theme, we don't give this information for any other theme other than songs from films. The articles about all the songs being performed explain which former contestant performed or recorded the song. In fact, we shouldn't need to list the films in week 3 either for the same reason. – anemone projectors– 16:39, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
Other celebs have appeared giving advice. Do we add these to the relevant weeks as well? I assumed not since nobody had done so, but the ones for this week have been added. So we either add the others or remove these. Which is it? – anemone projectors– 23:27, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
Hi folks,
According to this source, two former-Eurovision artists and judges of X Factor Adria ( Kristina Kovač and Željko Joksimović) from Serbia have been invited as musical guests for the UK X Factor finals on 15 December. But there are no other details to further explain if they are performing songs or presenting other acts, or part of the "finalist duets". Not sure if this needs to be mentioned in the article? Wes Mᴥuse 17:49, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Not being funny but about three or four people are trying to add the same information to the page at the same time. Why not just let one person get on with it? Then edit conflicts won't happen. Checking the history I'm seeing people's hard work being removed by the next person. – anemone projectors– 22:51, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

I know we don't normally do it this way, but I just thought I'd ask. Still greyed out, meaning they didn't face the public vote, and still explained in the note. It's probably not that good an idea, but I thought I'd try it. – anemone projectors– 09:51, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Simon Cowell said a lot of things about this series, like he would consider axing the flash vote, but as he's not (credited as) an executive producer on the show, does he really get a say in it anymore? If not, then shouldn't we remove the things he said as irrelevant? – anemone projectors– 11:33, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

With regards to this edit, the assertion in the edit summary is incorrect. Episodes can be used as sources for things that happen in those episodes; it is only if interpretation is required that a secondary source is needed, per WP:PSTS. Reviewing the material cited to the episodes themselves, it does not appear as if any of it falls into that category, although please feel free to point out anything I may have overlooked.

I've reverted mine and pasted yours below, for comparison. Actually, yours is better because it's clear who loses one vote and who loses the other, and mine looks silly! They probably will release all the %s, so shall we just do it now? – anemone projectors– 15:49, 8 October 2013 (UTC)

Everything fits in well, so yeah, this is great. Made one small change to the references line. – anemone projectors– 15:54, 8 October 2013 (UTC)
As I said above, this year there isn't a "bottom two" because there are two votes, so it's the person at the bottom of each vote, two "bottom ones" if you will. Also, it would be better to state in the live show details sections which vote each person lost, rather than just to say that both lost the vote (however you want to say it), so I'd rather see it go back to "lost flash vote" or something similar. Obviously I'm discussing it and not reverting it per WP:BRD. – anemone projectors– 22:03, 12 October 2013 (UTC)
I've noticed so far this year we haven't heard the words "final showdown" mentioned, only "sing off". Should we change this article to reflect that, or leave it for consistency, or wait for tonight and see what happens? (Note I will be out tonight and not watching (unless it's on at the pub)!) – anemone projectors– 10:45, 13 October 2013 (UTC)
He's featured in this article as a returning judge, but are we sure he's actually going to be featured? It seems unlikely... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jonnyt 123 ( talk • contribs)
Do you think that the controversy surrounding See See (from Miss Dynamix) being pregnant should be included? - critics are saying she should be kicked out. I could write it with refs if you think it should be, but I wasn't too sure if it was notable enough to be included. What do you think? Bruno Russell ( talk) 17:34, 18 October 2013 (UTC)
When there's been a tie in the past, in the results summary table, we've always put "2 of 2 votes, deadlock". What do we put this year if it's a tie? – anemone projectors– 08:28, 24 October 2013 (UTC)
I feel that it's silly to keep saying "[Act] and [act] performed on the [n]th live results show" over and over again, and think it's better to just say something like "Performers included [list of acts]". The information is all given below in the details sections, and looking at older series, we didn't go into this much details and it reads better. Just because series 9 follows a format doesn't mean we can't change it for series 10. So because Lawsj1234 insists that we state "[Act] and [act] performed on the [n]th live results show" over and over again, I want to discuss it. Thanks all. – anemone projectors– 10:16, 26 October 2013 (UTC)

You know on The X Factor (UK series 10) page, where it says {n/a} for when Miss Dynamix didn't perform i would like you to replace it with the word "Absent". Your sincerely, MrWikis2013 MrWikis2013 ( talk) 16:21, 2 November 2013 (UTC)
Did I hear Dermot correctly in saying that there is no flash vote from here on in, meaning it will be axed for the rest of the series? -- MSalmon ( talk) 21:52, 2 November 2013 (UTC)

Hey. I'm not sure how accurate is that people "not liking" who the judges have sent through is actual controversy. Some people are always going to dislike who goes through - but its not an actual controversy of this series - it happens EVERY year. People always say "I think they should have gone through" - it's never been included on previous series so don't see why it is here now. Bruno Russell ( talk) 18:58, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
How come soloists in the finalists table only have their surname when showing when the judges voted against them, but then it shows their full name in the "Eliminated" square at the bottom? Unreal7 ( talk) 01:06, 7 November 2013 (UTC)
Not getting involved in an edit war so bringing it here. Please can we remove the original (or not in most cases) artists from this table. We don't list original arists, and although in this case it's to explain the reason a song was chosen for the theme, we don't give this information for any other theme other than songs from films. The articles about all the songs being performed explain which former contestant performed or recorded the song. In fact, we shouldn't need to list the films in week 3 either for the same reason. – anemone projectors– 16:39, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
Other celebs have appeared giving advice. Do we add these to the relevant weeks as well? I assumed not since nobody had done so, but the ones for this week have been added. So we either add the others or remove these. Which is it? – anemone projectors– 23:27, 22 November 2013 (UTC)
Hi folks,
According to this source, two former-Eurovision artists and judges of X Factor Adria ( Kristina Kovač and Željko Joksimović) from Serbia have been invited as musical guests for the UK X Factor finals on 15 December. But there are no other details to further explain if they are performing songs or presenting other acts, or part of the "finalist duets". Not sure if this needs to be mentioned in the article? Wes Mᴥuse 17:49, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
Not being funny but about three or four people are trying to add the same information to the page at the same time. Why not just let one person get on with it? Then edit conflicts won't happen. Checking the history I'm seeing people's hard work being removed by the next person. – anemone projectors– 22:51, 15 December 2013 (UTC)

I know we don't normally do it this way, but I just thought I'd ask. Still greyed out, meaning they didn't face the public vote, and still explained in the note. It's probably not that good an idea, but I thought I'd try it. – anemone projectors– 09:51, 16 December 2013 (UTC)

Simon Cowell said a lot of things about this series, like he would consider axing the flash vote, but as he's not (credited as) an executive producer on the show, does he really get a say in it anymore? If not, then shouldn't we remove the things he said as irrelevant? – anemone projectors– 11:33, 22 December 2013 (UTC)

With regards to this edit, the assertion in the edit summary is incorrect. Episodes can be used as sources for things that happen in those episodes; it is only if interpretation is required that a secondary source is needed, per WP:PSTS. Reviewing the material cited to the episodes themselves, it does not appear as if any of it falls into that category, although please feel free to point out anything I may have overlooked.
