Recent Updates
The article's list of releases stops at series M, but references are made to series s. Why aren't later series listed? 10:16, 21 September 2022 (UTC) -- Steve -- (talk) 10:16, 21 September 2022 (UTC)
- Even worse, series T is not even mentioned. A lot of old and oudated thinges here, but almost nothing recent. I would have expected to find information about filming and broadcasting of the most recent serien, but null. 47.69.97.190 (talk) 19:14, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
- To the anonymous editor and @EngineerSteve: later series aren't listed because you haven't added them. There is no person assigned to maintain any article, because we are all volunteers. If you see a problem then you need to fix it yourself. We have no shortage of tasks to do, but rather a shortage of volunteer labour. — Bilorv (talk) 20:12, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) WP:SOFIXIT. We don't have a team of elves maintaining our articles. If you can edit a talk page you can edit an article. DeCausa (talk) 20:15, 5 November 2022 (UTC)
Similitude to "Ilustres ignorantes" (Spanish TV show)... Spin-off?
There is a similar show in Spanish TV called "Ilustres ignorantes" https://www.search.com.vn/wiki/es/Ilustres_ignorantes which I always felt that has a very similar format to QI. However, it is not listed as one of the QI spin-offs, and the Spanish Wikipedia page also makes no connection between the two.I just note this here, in case anyone ever finds some connections and wants to look into it. 137.195.22.235 (talk) 10:36, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
Origins of the term "QI Elves"?
I feel like this is a Stephen Fry-ism that started out as an off-hand remark on the show and stuck, eventually ending up as the official name in the credits. Is anyone able to verify? Might be something worth noting in the "research" section. 152.78.210.207 (talk) 09:07, 3 January 2024 (UTC)
More on 'The Researchers'
This MAY have been mentioned before, but one of QI's 'elves' is/was Emily Jupitus, the daughter of Phill. As an aside, one of the existing researchers, Vitaly Vitaliev, appeared as a contestant on "Have I Got News For You" in 1993. Taff Hewitt (talk) 22:52, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
