Known as Pilot Guides in USA too?

Someone recently added that the name Pilot Guides is used in the USA and Canada. I know that name is used in Canada, but I've never seen it in the USA, except on some videocassette and DVD packages. Confirmation please? —mjb 22:47, 10 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I would say yes as the website is called "Pilot Guides: Home of Globe Trekker" - http://www.pilotguides.com/tv-shows/planet-food/series-6/planet-food-special-the-story-of-tea/ When the show is listed in TV channel guides and the trailers are shown on the various PBS channels in the US (that I've seen), it's called "Globe Trekker". Either the production company or the parent corporation is called "Pilot Guides". At the end of an episode, it says "Pilot Productions". Yours, Wordreader (talk) 21:59, 31 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:GlobeTrekkerLogo.jpg

Image:GlobeTrekkerLogo.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 04:24, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changed Image:GlobeTrekkerLogo.jpg to use the appropiate Non-free use rationale title-card template, should be complying with Wikipedia policy now. Fleon11 (talk) 22:56, 19 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Samantha Brown

When did Samantha Brown do a Globe Trekker episode? Her own articl on Wikipedia makes no mention of it. Avman M 12:06, 19 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Curious to know about the "Lonely Planet" association...

...including subsequent "divorce"

Great show either way. Just wondering what straw broke that back(ing). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.190.25.79 (talk) 04:12, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedia Globe Trekker Episode Guide differs from that on Pilot Guides Website

I notice differences between the episode guide listed on Wikipedia, as compared with that listed on the Pilot Guides website. For example, Wikipedia lists the following titles as the first 5 episodes of season 16:

Episode 1: "Buenos Aires City Guide"
Episode 2: "Colonial Australia"
Episode 3: "Art Trails of the French Riviera"
Episode 4: "Great Australian Hikes"
Episode 5: "Myanmar"

However, the Pilot Guides website (http://www.pilotguides.com/tv-shows/globe-trekker/) lists these titles as the first 5 episodes:

Episode 1: (none listed)
Episode 2: "Globe Trekker Special: Art Trails of the French Riviera"
Episode 3: "Colonial Australia"
Episode 4: "Great Australian Hikes"
Episode 5: "World War 1 Special"

I'm wondering why there are differences here; and whether or not the Wikipedia episode guide should be updated. I didn't want to attempt to update the existing guide without first knowing the source for the current list. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Sanitas-Valley (talk • contribs) 20:29, 20 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Season 1 episode listing

The listing for season one appears to list an incorrect order, which is in contradiction to online hosting sites and IMDB (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0209673/episodes?season=1) which lists them as follows: 1 Indonesia: The Eastern Islands 2 La Ruta Maya 3 Morocco 4 Jamaica 5 Alaska 6 Pacific Islands 7 South East Australia 8 Vietnam 9 North East Brazil 10 Ecuador & the Galapagos Islands 11 Japan: Tokyo to Taiwan 12 North India: Varanasi to the Himalayas 13 Africa: Zimbabwe, Botswana & Namibia 14 (none listed?) 15 Israel & the Palestinian Territories
