::I'm sorry, but this just seems, to me anyway, rather unneccesary. This creates clutter in my opinion, and too much of it. The fact that you've argued that the template should have everything related to the show will just make said clutter worse. I find that I can't read or navigate my way around the template without getting headache pain. Again, I'm sorry, I do not intend to cause fights or edit wars, and I want to maintain a good relationship with the people who edit on the site. I respect you and your decisions even though I don't agree with them at times.--Cartoon Boy (talk) 7:00, 1 April, 2009

Can you please move "Monogem" to between Haley Reinhart and Colton Dixon, since she was eliminated in season 11, before Colton. Can you please do it? Please. 2601:40A:8480:1750:0:0:0:11B0 (talk) 13:43, 14 October 2022 (UTC)
