Ep. 2 Eliminations

Hi, Episode 2 aired yesterday and nobody has edited the eliminations. Here are the list of the eliminated contestants. These contestants are confirmed to be eliminated because at the end of the episode, it was shown these trainees had packed their bags and left the building.

These are NOT confirmed eliminations. The first elimination has not yet taken place and thus, nothing has been added here yet. The list of eliminated trainees you have given is based on speculation, not fact. Also, once the first elimination officially takes place, you can feel free to edit the article yourself. This is a collaborative platform — there is no need to ask other editors to add information when you could add it yourself. If you are unsure where and how to start with editing, please refer to Help:Editing and the Manual of Style. — wanna be your star, 루입니다 ★ 22:57, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

They released the top 42 of the contestants on Episode 2. The trainees I have listed as eliminated are the trainees that have not appeared in the top 42. This brings up the point of them being eliminated. Lucciisgucci (talk) 00:22, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

It appears that the ranking announcement was cut from the OTT VODs and was posted on the MBC Entertainment YouTube channel, instead here. — Eugh jei ♥ Kaorin 05:26, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I see. I don't know if MBC typically does not announce the ranks of the trainees they eliminate/makes a clear statement that they have been eliminated or if they do as I have not seen the previous season. Since they have now also been removed from the official website, I think they can be marked as eliminated in the main article. I would still wait to see if ranks are released for the eliminated trainees until the next episode before adding it to the list of contestants, though, as it would change the table structure.

Also, again, please edit yourself if you want changes to be seen and don't just request them from others. Imperfect edits are better than none. — wanna be your star, 루입니다 ★ 16:43, 8 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

References and article content

I have rewritten large portions of the article because I have noticed that most of it was copied verbatim from the Google machine translation of the corresponding references. Please refrain from copying text 1:1 from other websites, especially through machine translation. Also, I have noticed that some references did not match the content described in the article: for example, the article stated that the high-touch meeting took place on March 23, while it is literally stated right in the reference's headline that it took place on March 1 ("'Fantasy Boys', 'Hi! Fantasy' was held today (1st)... 5,000 applicants gathered" (Korean: ‘소년판타지’, 오늘(1일) ‘하이!판타지’ 개최…5천 명 신청자 몰려)). Please thoroughly read the references before adding wrong information when it could be easily avoided. — wanna be your star, 루입니다 ★ 23:04, 7 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
