Hi. I'd like to clarify my position on the two pieces of trivia you've been adding to Survivor: Fiji. The note about Gary not being voted off, and Liliana technically being the first voted off from that tribe, is fairly self-evident. We explain that Gary left for medical reasons, and if the reader thinks it notable that Liliana was therefore the first voted off from the tribe, he or she will be able to make that conclusion on their own rather easily.

The information you add about Paschal and Stacy is at best a question of terminology, and at worst original research. You seem to be implying that Stacy's elimination is more attributable to the voting results than Paschal's, but his elimination was also the result of the voting results. While he did not receive any votes, his elimination was made possible by the voting results, especially in contrast to eliminations like Gary's, which have nothing to do with Tribal Council. You seem to be making a distinction between the eliminations of Paschal and Stacy that is far from universal. Again, someone who wishes to make the conclusion you add to the text must do so on their own, not because we wish to advance our original interpretation.

I apologize for not explaining my edit earlier; many additions of trivia and commentary are made by users who lack the fortitude to add the information again after its removal. --Maxamegalon2000 03:38, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
