Hi. There is a concern I have with an error on the Wikipedia article for Harry Maxwell. I have changed it, but it keeps getting reverted.

The article says that he finished joint third on Young Apprentice. I presume that in a multiple firing, unless people are actually fired TOGETHER, the person who is fired first will finish the series in a lower place than the person fired afterwards. Unless I have completely got that wrong, he didn't finish joint third, he finished joint fourth. Zara finished first, James finished second, Haya finished third and Harry M finished joint fourth, with Harry H and Lizzie.

It keeps being reverted back, by a number of people. It currently says 'joint fourth' because I just changed it again, but I have no doubt it will be reverted back soon. I'd just like to say that if anyone could give me any support with this, I'd really appreciate it. I've just started a discussion about it on the 'Talk' page.

Thanks, to anyone who wants to help. (Also, if I have misunderstood the way multiple firings work - which I may have done - feel free to point it out. I always assume that Ifti officially finished 15th and Rory finished 14th; Jennifer finished ninth and Jenny finished tenth and so on. But I may be wrong...)

Raise it as a discussion in the Talk section. Or if you like, lay out an explanation in Talk, then insert an editor's note in the main page's editing section to refer editors to Talk for your explanation.

Use this tag to insert in the main page's edit: <!-- blah blah blah please refer to Talk for an explanation blah blah blah -->

Your note won't show up in the main page, but editors will see your note when they enter the editing mode of that page.

Edited:

I just had a look. Looks like someone's messing with you. Probably a sock puppet of an editor you probably have had a run-in with in the past. Better to take it to editors' mediation cave.

Thanks. Already done the 'Talk' section thing, but didn't think of the other suggestion.

Chronology is on your side. There were three firing decisions that series at the end. One took out a whole team. There then was a decision about who went in the winning team, and then a decision who came first and second.

Logic is too, because the 3 went for being beaten in the task, and the person alone in third went because Lord Sugar picked her as the least successful winner. The achievements and reason for the decision are different between the 3 and the one. Making them all 3rd implies something untrue.

The only way to make them all 3rd is to designate people by which week they go, and then have a winner and runner up. The only justification for that might be that it solves the problem that some Apprentice contestants didn't go in the order shown some weeks where there are multiple evictions, and that he may save the worst of 2 to last. But it loses the logic that usually who goes first is wanted least. It doesn't make sense to apply that counting method to Young Apprentice as in this case 3 went together , followed by one for a completely different reason, and everything happened in that order.

Yes, that's my logic. I generally rank them in order of when they went - regardless of which week it was - and do it like that - except obviously with Alex and Helene, Zoe and Kirsty, Harry H, Harry M and Lizzie and Maria and Patrick, as these people were literally all fired together.

I agree with you George

the result that year was

Winner - Zara
Runner Up - James
Third - Haya (she was deemed to be the weakest member of the Winning team)
Fourth = The two Harrys and the other girl (Lizzy?)

No way was Harry (much as I loved him!) joint third - his team were all eliminated for losing the task leaving the three members of the winning team ahead of them to finish first, second and third.

Harry Maxwell has came across the thread and has tweeted about it

Alright Harry? :L
