sense

"Original run May, 2008 – present" --- Doesnt make a great deal of sense right now, does it? anon

Neither did series 2-present for Wolf and some of the Gladiators! I've made changes to reflect the show's demise. Digifiend (talk) 22:37, 28 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

new glads

I added in the stuff about the new Gladiators' names and aliases, but I'm not sure how to reference things in a table, so I've put it as is. Sorry if that's wrong. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.210.41.62 (talk) 12:05, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cyclone?

Yeah, erm, how do we know about this seventh female Gladiator? I looked for a source, and couldn't find one, and she's not up on the website either. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.23.76.119 (talk) 13:45, 18 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

John Anderson

It says somewhere that John Anderson is the only person to return to the new series, however most of the video's on the website are presented by two of the old Gladiators (Hunter for one, I think the other might be jet). I think they should be mentioned. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Errlloyd (talk • contribs) 12:35, 9 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Two Gladiators Events Sections

Is there any point in having to articles about gladiators events, surely it would be best to combine these two articles? Xrateddan (talk) 10:38, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The List of Gladiators events page, is a brief summary of all the events ever used in Gladiators. The category Gladiators events provides links to pages regarding each specific event, both in the English and the American versions (and other minor versions), all of which are covered in more detail. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 10:44, 12 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeh i know, but is there no way of getting these two things together as they are about the same subject and it just seems silly not to combine all the information into one place so that the most information is possible to be found in one place. I would suggest that the article called Gladiators events as it is better layed out and would benefit from the extra history that is contained in the list of gladiators events article Xrateddan (talk) 07:15, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think this is probably what you don't understand. The Gladiators events page is a category page, it is merely a list of links to pages for the events in more details than the list. The list is a brief synopsis of each event, but there are also links from each of those synopsis' to the event's main page, where it's history, full workings and other information can be found.

Lists and categories are two different things, and cannot really be merged. TheChrisD ^{Rants•Edits} 09:51, 13 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

New Series

Does anyone have any sources for the final article entitled future series, as i cant find any and if sources cant be found than the section will need to be deleted Xrateddan (talk) 19:15, 22 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The result of the proposal was move. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 15:41, 17 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Gladiators (2008 TV series) → Gladiators (2008 UK TV series) - There are *two* 2008 TV shows called "Gladiators", one being this one, the other being Gladiators (2008 Australian TV series), so having this one at this name is prejudicial against the Australian one. Further, it could be confused with the American Gladiators (2008 TV series)]] — 76.66.198.171 (talk) 00:10, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
