Talk:The Voice UK

The 'Format' Section
I have found my way to this page in an attempt to find out more about the format of this show. The section regarding this topic is factually accurate, but poorly worded which makes it quite difficult to follow. If somebody feels confident in their abilities to fix this then I would suggest that a revision is appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.97.56.200 (talk) 09:24, 15 April 2012 (UTC)

Edit request
Could the contestants be in alphabetical order please? 92.20.142.67 (talk) 08:33, 18 April 2012 (UTC)

Judges in infobox
Hi, shouldn't it be Coaches in the infobox not Judges but I don't know how to change it (I tried to change it but it didn't work) --MSalmon (talk) 19:57, 14 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It's done from the Infobox television I originally put 'Judges' field in due to the large number of shows now having them. I think you need to ask on the templates talkpage for any changed to the template now. --  [[ axg  ◉  talk   ]] 21:30, 14 July 2012 (UTC)

yeah i tried to change it but it didn't work Frogkermit (talk) 11:28, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

When are they going to change it to coaches Superman011 (talk) 10:00, 29 May 2021 (UTC)

Edit request
It is Becky Hill, not Becky Hall. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.73.18.205 (talk) 10:19, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * It is fixed --MSalmon (talk) 20:05, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

Quote under Tom Jones
Could we find new referenced text under the picture of Tom Jones? Having the words musical legend in quotes makes it seem as if Wikipedia doubts it, especially as the wordage is stuck on its own. 92.20.166.85 (talk) 10:49, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

2014 results?
Really? The 2014 results are on wikipedia, even though only the first episode has aired? Even if this is correct, I think ti should be removed, to prevent it being spoilt for anyone. Spockyt (talk) 20:32, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Series 2, incorrect winner
Can someone please fix the series overview for series 2? Leah McFall/Team Will is listed as the winner, whereas in reality it was Andrea Begley/Team Danny. I'd do it myself but I have zero experience in formatting tables in Wikipedia and don't want to screw it up. Thanks. Rwintle (talk) 15:17, 25 September 2015 (UTC)
 * Actually the result for every series had been vandalised. It wasn't a simple revert either, as nobody seemed to have noticed the vandalism. I've fixed it now. – anemone projectors – 21:49, 26 September 2015 (UTC)

Series overview table
I would like to edit the table a little bit, to make it similar to the U.S. "Voice" wiki page. I just want to re-arrange the coaches' column, so we can see which coaches sit on which chair order. the current column does not include the info(rmation) of the chairs' order. Can I do that, so that there is no more edit war?? Andimuhammadrifki (talk) 07:25, 23 July 2017 (UTC+8)


 * Unfortunately, I am in agreement that it is a bit of overuse of colour, and don't see the necessity for use of it. The way it is, currently, is a much cleaner and simpler approach to the table.   livelikemusic    talk!  20:28, 25 July 2017 (UTC)

If you say that it could not be done because of color overuse, can I do it without color overuse?? Andimuhammadrifki (talk) 19:17, 30 July 2017 (UTC+8)


 * It's an unnecessary change that makes the table more cluttered and confusing. And whether you make it or someone else makes it does not matter, because that would be an issue of owning the page for you, as it appears that's the stance you might be taking.   livelikemusic    talk!  22:40, 30 July 2017 (UTC)


 * Also, the chair order isn't really important, as it doesn't affect the process or the outcome of the series. —  a nemone   p ro j ec t ors  10:04, 28 August 2017 (UTC)

Next season is 2018 not 2017 😀 Smoon92 (talk) 23:11, 29 September 2017 (UTC)

ITV in the infobox
Please discuss here instead of reverting and counter-reverting, thanks! anemone projectors  09:05, 21 April 2016 (UTC)

WP:ACCESS
Wikipedia's Manual of Style on accessibility says: However, I thought this was a much better way of conveying the exact same information without the need for colour. I have no problems with colour but I find it distracting when there is so much of it, and WP:ACCESS should be adhered to. An IP seemingly attempted (but failed) to restore colour so it was reverted to the version I made with colour and symbols. So I'm here to discuss which is better: Thanks. anemone projectors  13:13, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * "Ensure that color is not the only method used to convey important information"
 * In the table here, colour is the only method used to convey the information.
 * "do not use colored text or background unless its status is also indicated using another method such as an accessible symbol matched to a legend, or footnote labels. Otherwise, blind users or readers accessing Wikipedia through a printout or device without a color screen will not receive that information."
 * In this version, I did that.
 * Colours and symbols
 * No colours and text
 * Colours and text would also be an option - I like the text instead of symbols as it makes each series row the same height.


 * I've put in a version with colours and text. This keeps colour for those who want it, but the text satisfies those using screen readers. I like the row heights being the same and the text also means no need to look up the key to see what team someone was in, though the colour is a quick way of seeing how well each team did for those who can use/see colour. anemone  projectors  15:35, 30 May 2016 (UTC)
 * Clearly someone didn't read the hidden notes or the talk page as it has been changed MSalmon (talk) 08:55, 28 July 2018 (UTC)
 * I haven't checked this page for a long while but the last time I did, it had all been changed and I changed it back. I will continue to do so every time I notice. — ᴀnemone  ᴘroᴊecтors  16:10, 19 August 2018 (UTC)
 * I have also redirected Series 8 page to The Voice UK as it is way too early for it MSalmon (talk) 17:39, 19 August 2018 (UTC)

The table layout has continued to be changed, most notably team names removed and only colour used in their place, therefore I have applied pending changes protection to the page. A separate issue seems to be the listing of the coaches. I thing it looks very neat how it is and does not need to change, however, if there is consensus to change, it should only be to this format:


 * Team Will
 * Team Jessie
 * Team Tom


 * Team Danny
 * Team Kylie
 * Team Ricky


 * Team George
 * Team JHud
 * Team Olly

Except with the coach column widths all set to the same. The coaches themselves should not be coloured in. But it would require consensus because I would oppose this change. — ᴀnemone  ᴘroᴊecтors  21:07, 9 September 2018 (UTC)

Use of third place
Hi, in the series overview table third place has it's own column when there has never been a third place as there has always been two artists eliminated at the same time during the final so we never know third place. MSalmon (talk) 10:53, 27 November 2016 (UTC)
 * The table should be reverted back to how it was before, so I have done so. anemone  projectors  08:25, 1 December 2016 (UTC)

Nicole Scherzinger
Whoever keeps adding Nicole Scherzinger as a coach needs to stop because she has never been a coach on The Voice UK MSalmon (talk) 10:12, 22 July 2018 (UTC)

Anne-Marie's colour
Most people have agreed with red ("#ff7f7f") for Anne-Marie's colour. Why do you have to come here destroy that?

Jennifer Hudson's key colour
Hello! I would like to suggest a change. As you most likely know, JHud was also a coach in the American The Voice and her key colour used to match in both series. However, the American page has been reformed in terms of key colours, and now her new colour there is, which is similar to Pixie Lott's colour in the British The Voice Kids. Do you think it would be possible to swap Pixie's and Jennifer's colours? JHud would have (matching with the American version), and Pixie would have ? Everyone is invited to consider it, please, and show your opinion on the matter. Ping me when you can. Thank you. – (Talk!! :D) 01:23, 3 January 2021 (UTC).

I think that is a great idea Superman011 (talk) 16:27, 8 April 2021 (UTC)

When are we going to change the colours then? Superman011 (talk) 07:21, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
 * They're changed already :D – MarcioRob24 (talk) 14:55, 15 May 2021 (UTC)
 * I think Gavin Rossdale's colour looks similar to Jennifer Hudson's colour  on the coaches' timeline do you think we should change one of the colours

Meghan’s Colour
As many of you might know, Ronan Keating has just been announced as a new coach on The Voice Kids UK. His colour from when he was a coach in Australia is the same as Meghan’s current colour. Many of us believe Meghan’s colour should be changed to make way for Ronan’s colour for The Voice Kids. Wikisteveb4 (talk) 12:19, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

IMO, Unless Meghan joins The Voice Kids, the colour should stay the same. Peterrrroblox (talk) 17:56, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

Ok, I’ll wait to get other input but that would be fine. Wikisteveb4 (talk) 21:48, 25 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello, I suggest turquiose for Meghan and Ronan has the orange. - MarcioRob24 (talk) 23:28, 25 January 2022 (UTC)

I agree, it looks good on the table. Glad we have a general consensus. Wikisteveb4 (talk) 15:25, 26 January 2022 (UTC)

A Voice from Yesterday TODAY (18 Nov 23)
Could a comment be made in the article highlighting the point that that, since the series aims to find new voices and talant, would it not be wrong for the show to attempt to rejuvenate the careers of past singers? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.149.166.167 (talk) 21:34, 18 November 2023 (UTC)
