Hello!

I clearly understand the reason behind separating both the regular and the All-Stars seasons, as they are separate shows produced and aired by World of Wonder and Logo/VH1 respectively. If that is the case, why don't we separate the winners from the regular and All-Stars seasons as well? This is to clearly distinguish the winners from the regular and All-Stars seasons in the same way as we see both regular and All-Stars seasons. In addition, even non-RPDR fans who choose to navigate the infobox will find out at a glance who won each season respectively. What do you think?

It is unnecessary to add each contestant's Wikipedia linked to their name in the navbox because it can get overtly busy and become difficult to navigate with.

Absolutely agree, in fact it shouldn't be up for discussion. The other contestants do not hold enough notability within the show to be included in the box.

The argument made in previous discussions is that the participants are notable because of their involvement in the show. For the most part, they were not "celebrities" before their appearance, therefore they belong in this navbox (similar to how categorization uses WP:DEFINING). --woodensuperman 16:34, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-03-23T16:34:00.000Z","author":"Woodensuperman","type":"comment","level":8,"id":"c-Woodensuperman-2018-03-23T16:34:00.000Z-Dallasansel-2018-03-23T13:53:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"wooden"}}-->

Your argument that "The other contestants do not hold enough notability within the show" holds no water.

The argument that there is "no room" is BS. This is a relatively compact navbox. And as you can see from the discussion I linked above, there is some consensus that non-celebrity participants for reality shows do belong in navboxes, as the reality show is what they are primarily known for to the wider world. Per WP:PERFNAV, we don't include hosts, judges, celebrity contestants, etc., as these people are known for many other things. Better comparisons are navboxes for other "talent" shows, like {{America's Next Top Model}}, {{The Voice (U.S.)}}, etc. --woodensuperman 09:52, 23 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-03-23T09:52:00.000Z","author":"Woodensuperman","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Woodensuperman-2018-03-23T09:52:00.000Z-K_CMS-2018-03-16T17:05:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"wooden"}}-->

• Keep the contestants, per woodensuperman's comments. The inclusion of non-winning contestants of a reality show (and Ru the day that reality shows began to indoctrinate society that all the world is a mistrusting battleground) have been discussed before. I saw this discussion mentioned, and first read the discussion without looking at the template which I then expected to find as a very large template. What I found is that the template is not large at all, and it is well-arranged and understandable. I guess I'm not understanding what the problem is except for the notability of the non-winning contestants, which has been addressed by woodensuperman above.

• Comment. Would the users who are insisting on continually removing these entries note that prior consensus for navboxes of this type is to include non-celebrity participants, per the examples I've listed above, and consensus in this discussion is also to include. Rather than continually revert, I would suggest that you continue to discuss. Other than WP:IDONTLIKEIT, neither of you have posited a good reason for excluding these. Note that this content already existed as it was included on another navbox, a merge was necessary as we don't need two navboxes - a single navbox is of an easily manageable size. --woodensuperman 08:09, 29 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2018-03-29T08:09:00.000Z","author":"Woodensuperman","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Woodensuperman-2018-03-29T08:09:00.000Z-K_CMS-2018-03-16T16:43:00.000Z","replies":[],"displayName":"wooden"}}-->

How should we display the shared win by Monet X Change and Trinity Taylor? I had included both as one bullet with a plus sign, but User:Dominikcapuan changed this to a bullet in between but both names in a set a parentheses. I think the parentheses are confusing, but maybe others find the plus sign confusing. My goal was to show they both one together, rather than having separate bullet, because readers might be confused why there are 5 names listed when there have only been 4 seasons.

• From a logical perspective, I think the plus sign without parentheses makes the most sense. Because of both the intrinsic meaning of a plus sign and the fact that it differs from the dot that separates all other entries, it clearly indicates that the two won together. Adding parentheses is confusing, since they are used elsewhere in this template to indicate that their contents are related to a series name explicitly stated outside the parentheses. There is no series name (nor any other parent category, for that matter) before these, which makes this usage inconsistent. Also, unlike a plus sign, parentheses do not inherently imply anything about "together" or "simultaneously" or "in conjunction".

That said, I am also fine with going back to the simple dot between the two names, since one could argue that that section of the template merely contains people who fall under the category of "Winner of RuPaul's Drag Race". That is true of both Monét and Trinity regardless of whether we include the additional info that they won together.

@Naraht I believe this is resolved since there are now separate navboxes for various iterations of the show. The only thing to keep in mind is IF we separate out a navbox for All Stars then we will want to update Pangina's article (the others are covered by Template:RuPaul's Drag Race for now). ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:08, 3 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20220803160800","author":"Another Believer","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Another_Believer-20220803160800-Naraht-2022-05-15T02:27:00.000Z","replies":["c-Naraht-20220803161300-Another_Believer-20220803160800"]}}-->

Judges and crew should not be included in these navboxes, as per WP:PERFNAV entertainers and crew members should not be included. These are celebrities who are known for their careers outside of this franchise, so including them is WP:UNDUE. --woodensuperman 14:23, 21 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"20230421142300","author":"Woodensuperman","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Woodensuperman-20230421142300-Judges_and_Crew","replies":[],"displayName":"wooden"}}-->
