I was wondering if I could make pages for all of the finalists. Queens like Kerri Colby and Kornbread have their own pages, and both placed relatively low on season 14. There is already a page for Bosco and Lady Camden (I created one earlier today), so I should be allowed to make pages for the rest of the finalists (Daya Betty, Willow Pill, and Angeria Paris VanMichaels). Thoughts on this? TatiVogue ( talk) 18:45, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
Should there be a boot category for whoever wins the Golden Boot award? I think it's more of a joke award unlike Miss Congeniality because the winner only gets the statue? I don't remember from season 13 if LaLa got something, but I would like to know if it should be on the elimination chart. TatiVogue ( talk) 11:42, 20 April 2022 (UTC)
An unregistered editor keeps restoring the poorly sourced Anubis Finch article, without demonstrating notability or discussing on the Talk page. Are we still in agreement the subject is not independently notable yet? If so, I could use help restoring the redirect so I'm not accused of edit warring.

Hello fellow RPDR editors! I found a source that adds some good background on Willow Pill's drag inspiration, but it uses (what I assume is a) deadname in the title. I've opened a discussion on Willow Pill's talk page and would love some other perspectives. I'm not married to an outcome; very interested in hearing other editor's thoughts! -- Kbabej ( talk) 19:15, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
On the Elimination Legend, when a contestant is disqualified (Willam & Sherry), or they quit (DeLa & Adore), should the legend have their names on it? As an example, instead of "QUIT indicates that the contestant quit the competition in that episode.", it says "QUIT indicates that Adore Delano quit the competition in that episode." same with disqualifications, "DISQ (Disqualified) indicates that Sherry Pie was disqualified for admitted sexual misconduct." If this has already been a topic discussed please let me know. If not, please give me your opinion on if the Legend should say that! 😊 TatiVogue ( talk) 13:32, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
Something I find *really* annoying articles about Drag Queen (specifically RPDR queens) is the attempt to make their drag name into a "First" and "Last" name when it has two or three pieces. As an example, on Bianca Del Rio's page there are at least two dozen occurances of "Del Rio" used as the Subject as it it was a last name (the way that for an article on George Washington, you'd use Washington as the Subject). As far as I know, the *only* RPDR drag queen where their drag name should be split that way is Derrick Barry since that his legal name (though I could see when it refering to her in drag the full name being used). *Possible* others are Mrs. Kasha Davis and *maybe* when it is a "house name" (see Phi-Phi, Asia and Ra'Jah). Some articles *do* get it right. Willow Pill never has "Pill" used as a sentence subject. If we don't have a way of distinguishing whether Monica Beverly Hillz should be referred to by Beverly Hillz or Hillz when it is used as a subject, then I just don't think we have a way of determining a "last name" for most of the other queens. Naraht ( talk) 20:17, 26 April 2022 (UTC)
One other queen competed under his legal name: Chad Michaels. So Kameron Michaels sorted under K and Chad Michaels sorted under M. *oy* Naraht ( talk) 14:23, 27 April 2022 (UTC)

Right now RuPaul's Drag Race (season 12) is self contradictory. Perhaps this should be discussed on the talk page for the article, but I hope this is a larger audience.
It boils down to the question as to whether Jackie Cox finished 4th or 5th. There is no question that Jaida Essence Hall, Crystal Method, and Gigi Goode finished ahead of her. The question is whether Sherry Pie should be counted in this regard. When Jackie left there were four queens heading to the final. When the Final was aired there were three queens. I know that this is explained in text, I'm wondering for the actual table. Note, the article on Jackie Cox (drag queen) says 5th. And of course this does affect the ranking of every other S12 queen who wasn't in the final. Naraht ( talk) 14:39, 6 May 2022 (UTC)
About Sherry Pie's disqualification, should it be included on the table? She wasn't disqualified in any of the episodes, but she was disqualified off of the show. Shouldn't it just be blank on the reunion and finale because she wasn't disqualified on the reunion or finale. TatiVogue ( talk) 20:28, 18 May 2022 (UTC)
I'm trying to approve Draft:Soa de Muse into mainspace, but the history of the redirect to Drag Race France of Soa de Muse has two items in its history. I've requested it as a non-controversial move.

Okay, so I saw the draft and… I’ll try to improve the article so it can be approved for the mainspace. ☺️ JuanGLP ( talk) 01:46, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
Moved it to Mainspace. Categories are currently Living People, Drag Race France Contestants (which I created, yes I know it only has one entry now) and French Drag Queens. I've got hidden year of birth missing since the infobox says c. 1989 (which is probably based on an age given at some point). If we find it, that's fine, otherwise we've got lots of queens without birth year, I think. Naraht ( talk) 13:50, 10 August 2022 (UTC)
I started
a section on the AS7 talk page that suggested reintroducing HIGH placements to some of the winners that they namedrop in the deliberation phase, only because the All Winners season removes the variable of negative critiques. Therefore, the show clearly states "These queens did very well this week." As there are no bottoms and only tops (heaven lol),adding HIGH placements aren't OR. Since this is touching on a very contentious matter in this subject topic space, comments would be appreciated. Thank you!

It needs coverage independent of the series as a whole that discusses elements of the episode beyond simply affirming its existence. I'm not sure its going to grow much more but there is a strong fan base that is VERY supportive of these articles even if they don't always meet our criteria and policies around notability and WP:SIGCOV.

How do project members feel about changing this project's name to WikiProject Drag Race? The scope of this project extends beyond RuPaul's Drag Race (U.S. version) specifically, covering all of Drag Race (franchise). I don't want to make any changes until project members have time to discuss and decide. Thoughts? Thanks! --- Another Believer ( Talk) 15:09, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
I feel like we should change it because yes, we are covering the whole Drag Race franchise. But if others don’t feel like it, then let them have an opinion. — JuanGLP ( talk) 16:55, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

The queen who finished seventh on Drag Race España (season 2) has a Wikipedia page on Spanish Wikipedia at https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamante_Merybrown . I guess it would be worth copying, but it isn't a slam dunk. If anyone would like to take a crack at it... Naraht ( talk) 23:19, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
I went through and changed the redirects for the first season DR España queens without pages of their own from "redirecting to DR España" to redirecting to "DR España season 1". I'll try to take a look at the other non-US countries with more than one season to see if they've got the same issue. Something to look for when a second season is announced for a country.

As someone who is colourblind, the new update to changing the ELIM/BLOCK placement to having white text rather than black, because apparently black is unreadable on a red background, actually hurts my eyes. The red colour used for the placement is a lighter, more saturated red, so naturally with white text it hurts to look at (for me at least), there has never ever been a problem with the previous black and red combination, therefore I was wondering if this change could be undone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Taylveon ( talk • contribs) 15:22, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under (season 2) was created with the only announced information being the date that the first episode would premiere. Is this enough going forward or should we wait for a list of queens? (I'm not sure if getting the list of judges affects this either way) Naraht ( talk) 13:35, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
Hey henny! I've book looking over some of the articles from the queens through the seasons, and lots of them incorporate a sentence such as this (example from Adore Delano's article): "In June 2019, a panel of judges from New York magazine placed her sixth on their list of "the most powerful drag queens in America", a ranking of 100 former Drag Race contestants." I believe that article has been incorporated into the lead on a majority of the alum's articles on WP if they are mentioned in this list. I'm fine with that sentence being included in the article body, somewhere in a Career or Impact section, but I do not think it is appropriate for the lead for a few reasons:
I'm interested in hearing other editors' thoughts. Note: this topic has been discussed previously on this WikiProject, which is now in the page archives here. One of the main editors involved in that discussion has been blocked. -- Kbabej ( talk) 23:19, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Per Category:Big Brother (franchise) and Category:Masked Singer, we might consider creating Category:Drag Race or Category:Drag Race (franchise) and making Category:RuPaul's Drag Race a U.S.-specific category per Drag Race (franchise) and RuPaul's Drag Race.

An editor on the french Wikipedia has already created a decent size article for fr:Paloma. Anyone want to try translating it for enwiki? Naraht ( talk) 03:28, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
I'm trying to remember when RPDR was "outside"... In an early season they had a pole dancing challenge or something similar when they were outside and in another early season, they had a final four(or five) mobile dance where the first queen started outside just outside the building...
Also, in which seasons regular or all star, did they have the finale in front of a *large* audience outside the studio. I know they did in the 7th (Jinkx), and I think most of the other more recent *regular* seasons, but I don't remember. :( Naraht ( talk) 03:42, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

KaladKaren (judge) would be another link to add... --- Another Believer ( Talk) 18:02, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
I went link and linked a show in the "Future Appearances" section of RPDR 5. I don't really see much use in what is in this section. This should all be in the individual queen's pages and IMO, gives less useful information than information on the queens going into the competition. Naraht ( talk) 21:28, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
I don't think these "Future appearances" sections are necessary. --- Another Believer ( Talk) 15:01, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
RuPaul's Drag Race (season 11)#Future_appearances probably has an example of *everything* except for Dragula. Are we agreed that *nothing* in that section belongs (future appearances on All Stars, future appearances as a guest, etc.) It feels like a *general* rule that nothing that occurs after the end of the episode in which the crown is given belongs in the article. (I'd make a minor exception for what happened with Sherry Pie afterwards if she didn't have an article) Are we agreed? Naraht ( talk) 14:58, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
Corygillis5550176 , it appears that you are doing a significant amount of the "Future Appearances" work on the RPDR pages (as well as Survivor and others). It appears that this Project views them as unneeded, but I wanted to get your opinions before we start chopping them. Naraht ( talk) 19:26, 19 August 2022 (UTC)

If the queens for PRDR:UK4 were announced *today*, it would be 16 days prior to the first episode being broadcast. That seems *very* short.

When I looked at what was linked to RPDR DU 2, oddly enough multiple pages already linked to Hannah Conda, and it turns out that there was an article on Hannah Conda that was AFD'd in 2011. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hannah Conda. Given that it was a Snow delete, is it worth looking at to see whether that plus RPDR equals something that should be brought back as an article?

I feel like we should change it because yes, we are covering the whole Drag Race franchise. But if others don’t feel like it, then let them have an opinion. — JuanGLP ( talk) 16:55, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
Closing this discussion since there's a formal move request below. Thanks! --- Another Believer ( Talk) 18:11, 16 August 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia:WikiProject RuPaul's Drag Race → Wikipedia:WikiProject Drag Race – The scope of this project extends beyond the American series RuPaul's Drag Race and covers all of Drag Race (franchise). Preliminary feedback from project members suggests support, but I'd like to open a formal discussion and invite others to participate. If renaming occurs, project members could use help with moving subpages, categories, assessment stuff, etc. Thanks! -- Another Believer ( Talk) 18:16, 15 August 2022 (UTC)
RuPaul's, whereas the other franchises without RuPaul on panel are always prefixed with the country name first. >> Lil-unique1 ( talk) — 20:32, 15 August 2022 (UTC)

The queen who finished seventh on Drag Race España (season 2) has a Wikipedia page on Spanish Wikipedia at https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diamante_Merybrown . I guess it would be worth copying, but it isn't a slam dunk. If anyone would like to take a crack at it... Naraht ( talk) 23:19, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
I went through and changed the redirects for the first season DR España queens without pages of their own from "redirecting to DR España" to redirecting to "DR España season 1". I'll try to take a look at the other non-US countries with more than one season to see if they've got the same issue. Something to look for when a second season is announced for a country.

As someone who is colourblind, the new update to changing the ELIM/BLOCK placement to having white text rather than black, because apparently black is unreadable on a red background, actually hurts my eyes. The red colour used for the placement is a lighter, more saturated red, so naturally with white text it hurts to look at (for me at least), there has never ever been a problem with the previous black and red combination, therefore I was wondering if this change could be undone. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Taylveon ( talk • contribs) 15:22, 28 May 2022 (UTC)
RuPaul's Drag Race Down Under (season 2) was created with the only announced information being the date that the first episode would premiere. Is this enough going forward or should we wait for a list of queens? (I'm not sure if getting the list of judges affects this either way) Naraht ( talk) 13:35, 22 June 2022 (UTC)
Hey henny! I've book looking over some of the articles from the queens through the seasons, and lots of them incorporate a sentence such as this (example from Adore Delano's article): "In June 2019, a panel of judges from New York magazine placed her sixth on their list of "the most powerful drag queens in America", a ranking of 100 former Drag Race contestants." I believe that article has been incorporated into the lead on a majority of the alum's articles on WP if they are mentioned in this list. I'm fine with that sentence being included in the article body, somewhere in a Career or Impact section, but I do not think it is appropriate for the lead for a few reasons:
I'm interested in hearing other editors' thoughts. Note: this topic has been discussed previously on this WikiProject, which is now in the page archives here. One of the main editors involved in that discussion has been blocked. -- Kbabej ( talk) 23:19, 17 July 2022 (UTC)

Per Category:Big Brother (franchise) and Category:Masked Singer, we might consider creating Category:Drag Race or Category:Drag Race (franchise) and making Category:RuPaul's Drag Race a U.S.-specific category per Drag Race (franchise) and RuPaul's Drag Race. Thoughts? --- Another Believer ( Talk) 19:22, 3 August 2022 (UTC)
An editor on the french Wikipedia has already created a decent size article for fr:Paloma. Anyone want to try translating it for enwiki? Naraht ( talk) 03:28, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
I'm trying to remember when RPDR was "outside"... In an early season they had a pole dancing challenge or something similar when they were outside and in another early season, they had a final four(or five) mobile dance where the first queen started outside just outside the building...
Also, in which seasons regular or all star, did they have the finale in front of a *large* audience outside the studio. I know they did in the 7th (Jinkx), and I think most of the other more recent *regular* seasons, but I don't remember. :( Naraht ( talk) 03:42, 13 August 2022 (UTC)
I just put in at Categories for Discussion/Speedy to have Category:WikiProject RuPaul's Drag Race participants moved to Category:WikiProject Drag Race participants. We'll change the instructions on the WP mainpage changed when it is moved. Naraht ( talk) 13:07, 27 August 2022 (UTC)

Logo TV announced all of the guest judges (and guests helping during challenges) at https://www.logotv.com/news/gadm9x/drag-race-uk-season-4-celeb-guest-judges .

Hello everyone!
Wednesday, August 17, will be the day for the premiere for DRPH! This is what we are expecting!
Well, start your engines! May the best drag queen win! — JuanGLP ( talk) 01:23, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
Well, I am just doing my duty! I am too excited for the show! — JuanGLP ( talk) 04:46, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
Even though Untucked (and AS Untucked) are one article, I think we should have a separate article for DRPH:Untucked. Feelings? Naraht ( talk) 03:34, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
At what point should we create this template? I figure that at this point, there would be three links from it. Drag Race Philippines, Paolo Ballesteros, and Jiggly Caliente. Naraht ( talk) 15:47, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
KaladKaren (judge) would be another link to add... --- Another Believer ( Talk) 18:02, 16 August 2022 (UTC)
I went link and linked a show in the "Future Appearances" section of RPDR 5. I don't really see much use in what is in this section. This should all be in the individual queen's pages and IMO, gives less useful information than information on the queens going into the competition. Naraht ( talk) 21:28, 17 August 2022 (UTC)
I don't think these "Future appearances" sections are necessary. --- Another Believer ( Talk) 15:01, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
RuPaul's Drag Race (season 11)#Future_appearances probably has an example of *everything* except for Dragula. Are we agreed that *nothing* in that section belongs (future appearances on All Stars, future appearances as a guest, etc.) It feels like a *general* rule that nothing that occurs after the end of the episode in which the crown is given belongs in the article. (I'd make a minor exception for what happened with Sherry Pie afterwards if she didn't have an article) Are we agreed? Naraht ( talk) 14:58, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
Corygillis5550176 , it appears that you are doing a significant amount of the "Future Appearances" work on the RPDR pages (as well as Survivor and others). It appears that this Project views them as unneeded, but I wanted to get your opinions before we start chopping them. Naraht ( talk) 19:26, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
FYI, I've forked Drag Race Italia (season 1) out from Drag Race Italia since Season 2 premiers next month. --- Another Believer ( Talk) 15:30, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
If the queens for PRDR:UK4 were announced *today*, it would be 16 days prior to the first episode being broadcast. That seems *very* short. Also, this is *probably* the first time in DR that we have back to back "seasons" announced without having the queens for either (with RPDR:UK5 casting having opened).

When I looked at what was linked to RPDR DU 2, oddly enough multiple pages already linked to Hannah Conda, and it turns out that there was an article on Hannah Conda that was AFD'd in 2011. Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Hannah Conda. Given that it was a Snow delete, is it worth looking at to see whether that plus RPDR equals something that should be brought back as an article? (I don't think so, but just thought I should let people know here. Naraht ( talk) 17:53, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
