thread_title: Possible 2015 Revivial

message: Just to let readers know, I have removed most of the content from this article, and moved it to Australian Survivor (season 1), to allow this page to serve as a series overview page similar to other reality show articles. I haven't added or deleted much from the original content, it has simply moved over to the other page, then I have rewritten this page to serve as an overview. -- User:Whats new?(talk) 22:49, 19 November 2015 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: Opening discussion on a proposed change for the reformatting of this page to better represent the changes that the show has seen over its time. 
Enough time has passed between each incarnation for them to be listed separately on the page - as "original series" and "revived series". To the casual reader, lumping the five seasons together makes it seem as if the show has run for five years with no significant changes. When in reality, it has been on three different networks, and had completely different production companies. The airdates in the infobox are already separated into its different runs - for consistency throughout the page, the episode tables should also be split this way. Also considering that Channel Ten referred to their seasons of the program as "Season 1", "Season 2", etc., it would make more sense to represent that on this page.
If this change was approved by major editors, the individual season pages would be renamed like; "Australian Survivor (2016 TV series) (season 1)", etc. It may appear to be more confusing, but it would be more accurate, as the new seasons are technically part of a revival.

replies: text: Oppose: Numerous shows, Australian and globally, have changed broadcasters or production companies during their run. All five of the seasons of Australian Survivor are Australian adaptations of the same television format, and each has detailed season pages describing the differences between them. Both the Seven Network and Network Ten versions of The X Factor reside from the one parent article, as do the Network Ten and Nine Network versions of Big Brother. Similarily, the one parent article houses series information about the original and revival of formats such as, for example, American Deal or No Deal and The Contender. American Idol, arguably one of the biggest reality programs of recent times, also does not have separate articles for the "original" FOX run and the "revived" ABC run. In any case, your proposed season renaming would violate WP:NCTV -- Whats new?(talk) 10:34, 10 August 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Thankyou for the response! I appreciate all of your points, and I agree that everything should be kept to one parent article. At the very least I am just suggesting that the "Series Overview" section clearly states the changes in networks; potentially like I have drafted below. As a point of reference, Big Brother (Australian TV series) also notes the network changes in their Series Overview and I believe that works fine with WP:NCTV - and much neater than my original proposal.

text: You'll note in the main article, that broadcast information is in the very next section, in the very next table, which already includes the "Network" column you proposed above. There's no need to duplicate the information. The Big Brother season detail doesn't have nearly as much information, so it doesn't need a split between actual 'in-season' information (location, tribe makeup, etc.) and the broadcast detail. Also, NCTV is only about article naming conventions, which was about your initial proposal. -- Whats new?(talk) 06:13, 12 August 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reformatting page 

message: As is standard on Wikipedia, I keep having to correct the season numbers to match that of the show. The shows entitled "Australian Survivor" on Nine and Seven were entirely different shows that the Network 10 version does not count as part of its canon. They count them as separate shows. Please note the season numbers in the chyrons in All-Stars - those are what the show uses, so Wikipedia should not contradict that. 
This has been accepted in the fanon community as the true numbering since All-Stars, and all articles need to be updated to reflect the canonical numbering instead of challenging it (and thus confusing people). Andymancan1 (talk)  — Preceding undated comment added 14:36, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
