Two of the same paragraph edit

There is two of the same paragraph at the top of the page. There should only be one. So, if someone can remove the duplicate paragraph, that would be appreciated. 85.211.72.172 (talk) 21:12, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply

That should never have happened. Editors should be really careful to watch out for this - advisable to check a preview of edits to insure that there are no mistakes to what has been edited into an article. GUtt01 (talk) 22:04, 30 May 2019 (UTC)Reply
Assuming it was a mistake it's fine, someone else noticed and it was removed. Everyone makes mistakes. TheDoctorWho (talk) 07:09, 1 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Colin Thackery winning "fix" edit

I don't know if The Sun is a reliable source or not but, this is something that I believe should be mentioned under the Criticism section, especially when this is currently a hot issue right now. Thoughts, anyone? Bryn89 (talk) 16:58, 3 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

  Not done I'm afraid this can't be agreed upon. Firstly, the source provided is considered unreliable by Wikipedia (see WP:RSP). Secondly, this is really not controversial or critical against the programme, since the views being made are probably by viewers who favoured other acts they wanted to win and are simply voicing unfounded claims that have no level of evidence to support them, and are thus not notable. Criticism or controversy needs to be notable enough to be added to that section (i.e. Such claims would have to lead to an investigation by the broadcaster, production staff, or the media regulator Ofcom).

Okay, I've got you. Thought I'd bring this up anyway. Also, I don't even know what are reliable sources according to Wikipedia's policy anyway. Bryn89 (talk) 11:03, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
Check the link above (one in brackets next to "see..."), as that lists what is considered reliable, what isn't, and what is facing consensus/debate on reliability. GUtt01 (talk) 14:38, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Simon Cowell walk-off edit

For the 'criticism', should we add when Simon walked off stage during an act on the semi-finals? Cincinnati resident (talk) 01:30, 5 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
