Reinstatement of flags edit

The removal of flags cited MOS:FLAGCRUFT for their removal on the countries and locale (and the respective season) pages. The manual notes that: "Flags are visually striking, and placing a national flag next to something can make its nationality or location seem to be of greater significance than other things." While removing them in front of names of winners on the table of the international adaptions follows neutrality policy, removing the flags in the tables here doesn't seem to apply to the standards. The section is specifically made to highlight (dare say, make significant) the nations which have been visited throughout the show's history. The inclusion of flags in the table here doesn't break neutrality here and, if anywhere, fits the most for this section.

As somewhat of a congruent argument, the inclusion of flags when new countries are traveled to on each individual season page is purposefully added, as the show itself highly emphasizes travel to new countries. The inclusion of flags there is arguably relevant as well. 2600:8801:AC00:5836:DCD5:76E1:FD6C:417A (talk) 23:41, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Cool, yet another call for discussion on this matter that is completely ignored. 2604:3D08:7481:AF00:74F4:4B68:2CF9:97C5 (talk) 13:52, 27 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Improving Template:TAR Captionbox edit

I think about replacing double nbsp with single numsp (for figure space). I also thought about adding nbsp between an icon and a legend describing the icon. But I wonder how the changes would affect readability, especially on mobile.

Also, as I figured, the template is getting long, so I thought about putting parameters into its own subpage... unless it's not necessary. George Ho (talk) 23:24, 10 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

FYI: TAR 35 filming started edit

Per [1], TAR 35 started filming Oct 25, 2022, if we can't find a better source. Masem (t) 02:52, 26 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

Environmental impact edit

I imagine the carbon footprint of the show is quite high due to the frequent flying. I couldn't find any mention of environmental impact in this article. It is not clear if it the show has a carbon offsetting policy. (Fran Bosh (talk) 23:32, 4 March 2023 (UTC))Reply

Visited but not featured edit

I feel like calling Kenya on the map "Visited but not featured" is not accurate, as that implies it was visited but not shown in the episode, when it very clearly was shown in the episode and even has an entire route marker they go to. -184.56.75.144 (talk) 14:37, 24 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
