Why Croatia and Estonia aren’t on the participant’s list and map?

Croatia and Estonia said they will participate but why aren’t they on the participant’s list and map? Achichorta11 (talk) 07:17, 15 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

From what I gathered in this discussion thread, it's because the sources are not official enough for it to count as confirmation. For example, an estonian journalist confirming estonia's participation without a sufficient source isn't enough to count as a water-tight confirmation of participation.

RTE Has Confirmed Participation An Few Hours Ago 2001:16B8:253C:5C00:B9D1:DAB8:649C:EF88 (talk) 17:21, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's right. Can you please include it? 95.235.246.84 (talk) 19:44, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please specify your source with these kinds of requests. This time, I found a source by myself and added it to the article, but in other cases it's not as easy to find a source and most editors aren't willing to spend that effort on someone else's behalf. ―Jochem van Hees (talk) 16:18, 19 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Other countries edit request

Could someone with editing privileges add the following info (with usual style guidelines) under 'Other Countries'?

Australia: Requires an invite from the EBU as an associate broadcaster

Moldova: Not confirmed yet - but expenses were debated in Jun 2024 on the contest (source: https://eurovoix.com/2024/06/04/moldova-debate-rexpenses-eurovision-2024/)

Armenia: Not confirmed yet, but will be participating in Junior Eurovision 2024.

Bulgaria: Decision being taken in September (source: https://eurovisionfun.com/en/2024/06/bulgaria-in-september-the-decision-for-eurovision-2025/)

North Macedonia: Eurovision appeared in its programming plans, but has not yet confirmed participation. Last time they competed was in 2022.

Thanks, but those are all speculative or unconfirmed. The other countries section is reserved for broadcasters that have made outright efforts for the specific year/contest. Grk1011 (talk) 14:07, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is the point not to show the information, short of participation confirmed, that we know so far? We can put these points in a factual manner for those interested in knowing it, and I think this is relevant info in terms of other countries. Hwikipedianuk (talk) 17:37, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit voting system

"Viewers around the world can vote up for 20 songs, and their votes are distributed proportionally" is not accurate for participating countries. Can someone with editing access change this to reflect the same wording as 2024's page? Hwikipedianuk (talk) 17:40, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

yeah nice catch there. Removed it entirely for the time being unless we have something confirming that 2025 will stay the same as 2024 on this front Toffeenix (talk) 17:54, 25 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
