Constant Undoing of Edits[edit]

I've no idea why a few people on here constantly undo edits others have made when there is no need to. You can't take ownership of a wiki page and just undo anything someone you don't know has written. That is being biased when people on here gabble on about not being (see below). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.107.160.166 (talk) 07:52, 13 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism and Controversy[edit]

Whilst this may be a worthwhile section, it really needs more reliable sources and more information if its to stay. Forum speculation cannot vouch for an section. Greggers ^{(t • c)} 20:55, 7 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

- This isn't speculation about anything as it is opinion. Criticism IS opinion. Lots of wiki pages have this section, all from someone's/a group of people's point of view. No need to have it removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.24.220.23 (talk) 15:41, 9 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Please read WP:NOR, WP:V and WP:RS --Numyht (talk) 09:10, 12 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well the bit about the rules change should definately be there as Total Wipeout is the only version to use this rule on the Dizzy Dummy and it has led to contestants being eliminated when they wouldn't in other versions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.38.204.200 (talk) 22:40, 28 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Then add it to the Format section then --Numyht (talk) 12:17, 15 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Total Wipeout Awards?[edit]

Is there going to be any mention of this? 90.195.72.86 (talk) 13:46, 6 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Takeshi's Castle[edit]

Doesn't Takeshi's Castle deserve a mention somewhere on this page? I've watched a few episodes and some of the games are almost complete replicas... 217.43.119.7 (talk) 21:02, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There are many differences between the Argentinian course and the ABC course[edit]

The international version differs in more aspects than is mentioned in the article, the big balls are much higher up and further apart than the ABC-version and all four are level (whereas the US balls are on different heights), the "boxing wall" punches faster and harder (the extension of the punching arms is greater) than the ABC version and generally every Argentinian course is alot harder. The american show is being broadcasted here in Sweden now and the commentators (who also comment on the swedish edition) make frequent references to how much easier the american course is. —Preceding unsigned comment added by AiR (talk • contribs) 09:46, 1 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

vandalism[edit]

pretty sure there will be no celebrity episode with Geoff Hurst and Agatha Christie but i have no idea how to remove it —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.194.23 (talk) 18:54, 12 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fastest Non-Celebrity flawless time[edit]

The fastest flawless time in Total Wipeout not by a celebrity is James' time in the Season 4 final. Does this deserve its own part? Also should there be a list of every ball-crosser ever on Total Wipeout? Tez011 (talk) 19:53, 12 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

ended?[edit]

the web site says " Unfortunately we are no longer producing new episodes of Total Wipeout, but from all of us (and the Big Red Balls) thank you for your interest in taking part and your support for the show. Sadly though, we are not looking for new contestants." http://www.totalwipeout.co.uk/apply/ — Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.16.49.46 (talk) 12:48, 5 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
