Talk:The Amazing Race 3

Location list

I have Season 3 on divx... I'll end up expanding the location list after I finish seasons 1 and 2. --Madchester 01:17, 2005 May 12 (UTC)

Roadblock

The Roadblock in Singapore had teams run around some fountain (maybe the one in Suntec City) three times. Probably the easiest RB ever, and probably why the editors were wise not to air it. --Madchester 02:58, August 11, 2005 (UTC)

Leg 7

Is it really true to list Leg 7 as "Morocco→Germany→Austria→Germany→Austria→Germany" when really no team actually went out of and back into Austria? Wouldn't it make more sense to have "Morocco→Germany→Austria/Germany→Germany" or simply "Morocco→Germany→Austria→Germany" while having a footnote explaining the unique situation?

sallam alaikum, i am reviewing this mostly because my other review is still going to wait (i am sure you know who the nominator for it is, you can see it here: Talk:Lehakat Pikud Merkaz/GA1. in the meantime, this article will help in my goal to improve articles related to The Sopranos. season over-view articles are probably very easy to improve, but i'd rather save them for after i'm done with the episode articles. anyhow, i will be clearing the "basics", this is unlikely to be a long review, but i'm sure that you appreciate it anyway =) BedsAreBurning aka Sound🇵🇸 09:10, 18 January 2026 (UTC)

copyvio: 46.8%, but it's nothing that bad =) BedsAreBurning aka Sound🇵🇸 09:15, 18 January 2026 (UTC)

@Bgsu98, since you pledged to review any category except for two, i will be asking you to review a GAN in the same category as this GAN, television. great work on the article, by the way =) BedsAreBurning aka Sound🇵🇸 09:40, 18 January 2026 (UTC)

GA list

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   ce here and there, but that's all

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

   good stuff all around

2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   no notes here

   B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):

   see source review

   C. It contains no original research:

   see source review.

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

   copyvio said 46%, but the similarities are nothing to really note.

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

   no comment

   B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

   short and sweet, that's the way you do it.

4. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

   the reception section is a good example of the neutral tone used here.

5. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

   article is as stable as the pyramids

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   with the exception of the home media cover art (which has a rationale), most of the images are free with CC licenses or are in the public domain

   B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

   the article makes great use of a wide array of images of the destinations that the show went to during this season. (shout out to leg 13 =P)

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

   great job, man =)
