Talk:American Idol season 19

These changes

... were twice deemed "unnecessary". If consensus is that they are indeed not necessary (pointless), please – somebody – explain the insistence on changing them back. --Oblio4 (talk) 18:48, 11 April 2021 (UTC)

Color Consistency

@Edwyth and BrickMaster02: I don't mind either way, but in the other season's, the name of the contestant is also colored in. Furthermore, in the Showstopper round, they are also colored all the way in, but in last season they were not... So I think we need to develop a plan to change it to one or the other.

One of my goals was to make the charts more like The X Factor (British series 15)#Week 1 (20/21_October) I find those charts to be particularly clean. Edwyth (talk) 03:02, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Reply to @Edwyth: I am perfectly fine with whatever, just as long as someone is aware and has a plan to make things consistent. Chase | ^talk 21:36, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

The Comeback Contestants should not be in the elimination chart

I don't think the Comeback Contestants should be in the elimination chart. Only one winner actually "becomes" a contestant/finalist. The contestants that placed in the Top 24 should not be listed as placing 27th-34th, and the contestants that placed in the Top 16 should not be listed as placing 22nd-26th, because the comeback contestants did not place in the eventual Top 19 and beat the eliminated contestants, they only get a *shot* to re-enter the competition.

Reply to @OctoberBirch: I actually agree with this and that was the first thing that I thought as well when I saw them on there. Chase | ^talk 02:17, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

I see your point, this whole setup is a bit confusing so I was trying my best to make it all work when I worked on the chart. I think I have a plan on how to fix it. Edwyth (talk) 03:05, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

What do we think about moving the Comeback Contestants to the bottom of the chart? Edwyth (talk) 03:20, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Yes, I think that would be more fair/accurate to the contestants eliminated before the Comeback! OctoberBirch

I'm 100% in favor in changing the current eliminated contestants to 14th-25th place placing the current comeback contestants at the bottom the chart and moving those who enter the competition to the top. And making the comeback contestants "place" when they lose "CC". BrickMaster02 What are your thoughts? Edwyth (talk) 22:48, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

I agree. BrickMaster02 (talk) 22:50, 13 April 2021 (UTC)

Updated the elimination chart with my idea. Hope you all like it :) Edwyth (talk) 00:20, 14 April 2021 (UTC)
