While it's in my mind, I'd like to make a proposal. I don't like how when I come on the site, things the happened on the feed are on the site before they're shown on TV. Here's my view on this: the article is about the TV show itself, while the feeds are a supplement. I know I probably shouldn't be on here if I don't want to know, but I don't see the point of putting results from the feed, considering not everybody that watches the show has the feeds, but everyone that has the feeds watches the show.

I noticed that the article for the new series of Big Brother UK has revamped the structure of season articles. One of the noticeable changes is the "Housemates" section merged with the "Summary" section and the Summary written in prose instead of a table. Also the nomination/voting history table is now sourced. These changes should help Big Brother articles become FA articles. Take a look at the talk page for the article. I think we should adapt these changes to this article as well then once the season is over go back to previous seasons and apply the changes to them as well. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 15:57, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
Back in November I proposed the idea of Task Forces (a mini group inside a project with a more dedicated focus on a certain area within the project). Since Big Brother (US/UK) was off-air I guess many editors didn't notice my
initial post until editors of the UK articles started
proposing a UK task force. I think to better improve the USA articles a USA Task Force should be created since the USA version of Big Brother has different rules than other versions. The first USA edition would follow guidelines established by the UK task force due to their similar rules.
Also (and with the proviso that
voting is evil or
not).
Several changes to the overall article structure was made to Big Brother 2009 (UK) such as merging the Housemates & weekly summary sections, sourcing the nomination table, axing the ratings table and replacing it with prose of the notable episodes and ratings. These changes should be adapted here in order to help strengthen the article. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 19:35, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

I just don't like how spoilers are visible at the top of the page. For people just stopping by looking at what the time the show comes on, spoilers are fairly hard to miss. Also, a spoiler warning might also be a good idea. I had no idea that there were spoilers already until after it was already too late.-- 75.206.49.2 ( talk) 21:58, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
Posting nominations and POV winners before the actual television episodes air is CLEARLY a spoiler for the show's primary audience: those who watch it on TV. Viewers of the live internet feeds are not the show's primary audience. To make things worse, seeing the POV winner before tomorrow's episode was pretty much non-avoidable in my case (and I'm sure many others'), as it's right there in the info box where readers will, more likely than not, view. If the core audience of this show were live internet feed viewers, it would be a different story. But that isn't the case, therefore we need to gear this article toward those who watch the show on TV, yet would also like to see its article on Wikipedia WITHOUT finding out the result of a future, yet-to-be-aired episode. Percxyz ( Call me Percy, it's easier) 15:21, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
(indent reset) There's two issues at play here. First, spoilers are allowed. Wikipedia does not conceal information for the benefit of people who haven't seen a show yet. The secondary question is, is the information verifiable?

1. I think a Nomination Vetoed background entry should be used on the voting history, as the only way to currently tell is the confusing entries on the top. 2.

Since this is the first season of Big Brother (U.S.) that will heavily feature the "Exempt" color some editors want to indicate what the color stands for. Since the HouseGuests that are exempt from being nominated will still be eligible to vote on eviction night the words "Exempt" or "Immune" will be removed on Thursday and replaced with the HouseGuests vote. I would like to point out that when the infobox templates was revamped during 2007 the goal was to standardize the colors used in both the nomination/voting tables and the infobox. All the possible colors that can be used in any giving Big Brother (immune/exempt, walked, expelled, etc.) are the same for the tables and the infobox. The legend in the infobox describes what colors are used and what they are so there is no need to indicate in the table area which colors mean what. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 16:37, 14 July 2009 (UTC)

What if people who watch the show without live feeds visit this article? I mean, the table is just right there flashing you as soon as the page loads. The poor saps don't stand a chance.

There was a table in the article for the HouseGuests that was created and keeping track on the total number of eviction votes a HouseGuest may get in one season (similar to the "nominations received" column in the UK articles). Since in UK articles that type of column is okay I just removed the unnecessary table in List of Big Brother 11 HouseGuests (U.S.) and added the column to the voting history table similar to Big Brother 2009 (UK) until a consensus is reached about the column for American articles. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 02:54, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

I just removed an edit about the Chima vs. Russell terrorist controversy, and also the live show, and wanted to go into greater detail here. While Chima and Russell's dustup was entertaining, there was no coverage of it as a major notable controversy. The source given was a blog, and what I read didn't even involve the argument. If it gets significant coverage, it should be readed but for now, it just seems like another BB blowup, not notable outside of the show where it aired.
As for the reason for the taped show tonight, the source didn't definitively state the reason for the change in show filming. It speculated, as we're all doing, that the reason is because Chima could go nuts if Jeff used the Coup D'etat (or as he would pronounce it, the "Coupe Tater"). Unless we get official word from a reliable source that Chima was the reason for the change in taping schedule, I don't think we should state is as a definitive fact. Any thoughts?

If this is picked up by reliable secondary sources, we should report it. However, it's not up to us to decide what's notable and what isn't. Wikipedia isn't just to report everything we see on the internet feeds, or on BBAD. If something's a legitimate controversy, it'll be discussed in secondary sources and we can add it from there.
That being said, it wouldn't surprise me to see some of the things Chima's saying to wind up causing controversy outside of the house. We just need to wait until it's confirmed as notable. Dayewalker ( talk) 06:04, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

As this would affect the BB articles worldwide, I've posted a link to this discussion here. Please don't discuss the issue here, please take it to the link posted in order to centralise the discussion. Thanks, DJ 22:36, 31 July 2009 (UTC)
Is it really necessary to refer to jessie as the two pump chump on the houseguests page? Seth71 ( talk) 03:20, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
Is it posible to change the color on the sidebar for hoh or nominations? The Colors are bout the same and on older monitors they look the same -- Bkopicz3 ( talk) 04:46, 3 August 2009 (UTC)
I just removed an edit about the Chima vs. Russell terrorist controversy, and also the live show, and wanted to go into greater detail here. While Chima and Russell's dustup was entertaining, there was no coverage of it as a major notable controversy. The source given was a blog, and what I read didn't even involve the argument. If it gets significant coverage, it should be readed but for now, it just seems like another BB blowup, not notable outside of the show where it aired.
As for the reason for the taped show tonight, the source didn't definitively state the reason for the change in show filming. It speculated, as we're all doing, that the reason is because Chima could go nuts if Jeff used the Coup D'etat (or as he would pronounce it, the "Coupe Tater"). Unless we get official word from a reliable source that Chima was the reason for the change in taping schedule, I don't think we should state is as a definitive fact. Any thoughts?

As a result of various discussions during Big Brother 8 - Big Brother 11 USA I have restored the format that has been agreed upon through various discussions. If anyone would like to change part or all of the table please start a discussion first. This revision has the correct table. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 01:21, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
Could we get a Table for the Jury? and the other question, short while ago Chima had told Kevin that her, Natalie and Lydia were going to walk off the show, should that be posted cause it certainly is newsworthy. 98.163.120.145 ( talk) 03:21, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
If this is picked up by reliable secondary sources, we should report it. However, it's not up to us to decide what's notable and what isn't. Wikipedia isn't just to report everything we see on the internet feeds, or on BBAD. If something's a legitimate controversy, it'll be discussed in secondary sources and we can add it from there.
That being said, it wouldn't surprise me to see some of the things Chima's saying to wind up causing controversy outside of the house. We just need to wait until it's confirmed as notable. Dayewalker ( talk) 06:04, 14 August 2009 (UTC)

I am having an issue with Chima on the voting table. I think we should only have one Head of Household cell for Day 33, then change it to exempt on Day 40 being the overthrown Head of Household. I am getting repeated reverts. Why??? I have been warned as vandalism, when I did not vandalize the page. -- Dudejerome ( talk) 20:58, 14 August 2009 (UTC)
