Total Votes

Is it really necessary for there to be a column in the contestants section for total vote count? I think that all the tables should just be tribe placements and finishes. Total Vote Count is unnecessary Pokemon315066 (talk) 18:40, 23 December 2015 (UTC).

Survivor jury vote table discussion

There is a proposal at Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Television/Survivor task force#Jury vote tables to list the vote totals in the same order as the names in the finalist row immediately above the vote totals. All interested editors are invited to join that discussion. Since the Survivor task force appears to be inactive, I'm notifying Misplaced Pages talk:WikiProject Television/Reality television task force and the talk pages for each Survivor season in order to reach interested editors.

New Table Layout

Does anyone else agree that the new table layout for contestants, season summary, and voting history are very unpleasing to the eye? The way that they were previously looked way better. Thoughts? NintendoGeek (talk) 23:38, 30 March 2022 (UTC)

The new Voting History charts are terrible.

The charts were completely fine before. Nothing needed to be changed AT ALL. Who decided this was a good idea? 78.152.207.254 (talk) 22:59, 30 April 2022 (UTC)

The old charts failed accessibility requirements and WP:MOS. --Masem (t) 23:00, 30 April 2022 (UTC)
It looked perfectly fine before, but go off ig 110.174.21.178 (talk) 05:10, 1 May 2022 (UTC)
May I ask which requirement(s) failed, and which part(s) of the Manual of Style failed? I would have to agree that, not only did the old charts look better, they also were much more readable. These changes (as well as changing from the logo to the DVD slipcase cover) feel unnecessary, and detrimental to the overall quality of the Survivor articles.

Deleting color from tables

Hi Bgsu98. In regards to this revert, may I suggest that if you are going to delete colors that convey information, that it is your responsibility to add that information as a column in these tables. Simply deleting the colors is disruptive. Also have you achieved consensus for your mass changes affecting multiple pages? You just reverted my revert, which seems to go against WP:BRD and a WP:SILENT consensus that has stood for many years. Thank you. –Novem Linguae (talk) 04:09, 17 May 2022 (UTC)

Per our MOS and ACCESS, color should not be used to convey information. And it's rather clear that if a one tribe won immunity, the other tribe was going to tribal council and thus there's no need to reiterate that tribe. --Masem (t) 05:05, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
Colors can certainly be used, but colors cannot be the only means of expressing information. You could always add the tribe name into the Eliminated cell and re-add the color. The tribe could also be noted with a symbol and have a key that showed this. There are multiple ways it could be done, but using only color is not one of them. Those with colorblind issues would have no way of knowing what data you were trying to convey. Fyunck(click) (talk) 06:18, 17 May 2022 (UTC)
