Talk:List of The X Factor finalists (British series 9)

Union J missing
Title kind of says it all, there's no section for Walsh's third group Union J (formerly Triple J, but now with solo contestant George Shelley added). I would attempt to put it in myself, but I'm not that great with Wiki editing. 86.31.34.21 (talk) 22:14, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Vandalism reverted. – anemone projectors – 23:00, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

You need to lock this page from random edits; Twitter trolls keep adding their own names to the Union J section as George Shelley's girlfriend and are listing their own twitter URLs as reference sources. The particular culprit is an underage girl named Evelyn Viernes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.246.212.166 (talk) 02:17, 23 October 2012 (UTC)
 * Done. Thanks. – anemone projectors – 15:45, 23 October 2012 (UTC)

Information
How are you meant to edit this page? I have some information that it may not say or is wrong in the articles about Jade Ellis and Union J. Jade Ellis is not single. She is a lesbian and fell pregnant with her six-year-old daughter, Caiden by a close male friend. Jade and her daughter visit him every other month and they are still friends. She is dating another girl. Don't believe me? Google it. George Shelley has apparently never had a girlfriend, that was a friend (who was a girl)who told him to audition. Also, in a recent twitcam, when being asked if he was single, George said yes.

I hope this information is helpful to you. If you do not believe any of this, simply look it up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.251.168.103 (talk) 10:23, 30 October 2012 (UTC)


 * The page is semi-protected until 23 November because of vandalism. If you want an edit to be made, you can request one on this talk page using the template Edit semi-protected. Thanks also for the above information. Please can you provide the sources yourself, here on this page. – anemone projectors – 16:20, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

District3
Why is there four times as much written about them than any other act? It's highly disproportionate. We should either write similar stuff for the others, or cut them down. I'd rather the former. – anemone projectors – 19:27, 13 December 2012 (UTC)

Surely the District 3 entry has been vandalised? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 5.65.93.113 (talk) 07:02, 29 June 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes! I've reverted it. – anemone projectors – 17:47, 29 June 2013 (UTC)

Bias
The sections about District 3 and Union J are both written with extreme bias towards District 3, as well. The length of District 3's section and emphasis on their positive judges' comments, and the lack of notation that Union J made the semifinal and placed fourth overall, as well as beat District 3 in their sing-off against each other, are issues with tone. The District 3 section is disproportionate as well, as said above. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pineconesanddirtclods (talk • contribs) 09:55, 17 December 2012 (UTC)

Vandalism
The Union J section is consistently vandalized by a teenage girl named either Evelyn Viernes, Emmy Viernes, or Emma Viernes, who lists herself as a member's significant other and changes their info section to link to her Twitter account. Please keep on alert to stop this from happening! She removes real information (the friend of George Shelley who asked him to audition, Emily Tollner, cited in a reference article) and changes it to her own name and Twitter account. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.246.212.166 (talk) 03:32, 25 December 2012 (UTC)

Rylan Clark
Rylan is now eligible to have a stand-alone article of his own. I'm surprised nobody has already done it. – anemone projectors – 11:43, 26 January 2013 (UTC)
