Housemates

Please do not add any rumoured housemates onto the main article without using a source, otherwise it will be removed. Thanks. MSalmon (talk) 14:03, 22 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think Boy George's failed attempt to have the courts allow him onto the show should be mentioned, once we get a housemates section. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 13:51, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Is it worth adding rumoured housemates at all? Won't they just get removed when we find out the rumours were false at the start of the series? Anyway, we've had Peter Andre (though he denied it on Twitter), MC Hammer, Dane Bowers, Heidi Fleiss, Paul Danan, Ivana Trump, Pamela Anderson, Boy George's failed attempt, and now Brooke Kinsella. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 21:07, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Boy George is notable and sourced enough to go into the pre-series section. Leaky Caldron 21:13, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You can put the rumoured housemates in the pre series section (with source) but not into seperate housemates section, which is fine with me MSalmon (talk) 21:15, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Provided the source meets WP:RS. Why not just wait until it is official per wp:crystal etc? Leaky Caldron 21:27, 27 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As I type "Katia" is spelt "Katya" in the table. Can someone correct this if they haven't already? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.2.169.202 (talk) 22:07, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Lady Sovereign

Should Lady Sovereign be refered to as Louise as it is her real name or something else? MSalmon (talk) 22:34, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What was her name on the wall when she went in? Use that. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:35, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It was Lady Sovereign, but I was talking about nominations table etc MSalmon (talk) 22:37, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

If they're going to call her to the diary room, etc, with "Lady Sovereign" then I'd go with the whole thing. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:48, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Depends what they call her to the diary room by MSalmon (talk) 22:49, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I would think it'll be the same as what was on the wall when she went in, as the others just had their first names. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 22:52, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Leave it as Lady Sovereign for now and we will just have to wait and see MSalmon (talk) 22:53, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 23:16, 3 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On today's highlights show, Marcus the Narrator refered to her as SOV (Sov is in the kitchen) --BigOz22 (talk) 23:37, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Has she been called to the diary room yet? MSalmon (talk) 23:42, 5 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not that I've seen. I just think we should keep it as Lady Sovereign even if they call her Sov, though. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 00:38, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On the official Channel 4 website, it is Lady Sovereign, but we'll see on the future on how the show will publicize her name (Sov? Lady Sovereign? etc.) --Dude (talk) 06:50, 6 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

On the main site where it lists all housemates, it shows her full name, on news pages and stuff, it says Sov, but when BB announced the nominees, they lised Sov as SOV rather than Lady Sovereign. --BigOz22 (talk) 23:30, 11 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, all Housemates, big brother, and maybe Davina may call her Sov. But When Marcus Bently called out the numbers for the evictions, he said Lady Soverign for both the nominees and her number to be evicted! So I guess we should keep it as Lady Soverign. --81.98.98.6 (talk) 11:43, 12 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ratings etc

Ratings should be place again into this article when available. Also Davina's opening line should be nored as well.--Cooly123 03:19, 7 January 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

Table vs. Prose

Did we go back to the table format for the Chronology or is the consensus still on prose? ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 23:56, 7 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Prose please. I'm guessing the person who added it copied the last CBB article and not the last regular BB article, which is when prose was introduced. I forgot we'd changed from table to prose to be honest. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 01:28, 8 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I tagged it for conversion to prose but someone has removed the tag. Since we decided since the 2009 regular series to use prose instead of a table, we should go with that consensus, or discuss it further. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 12:35, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Another reason to change it to prose: Day 25 is not in chronological order. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 01:37, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Housemate entrance song

It should be noted the song that plays as they are introduced (eviction/leaving too if possible).--Cooly123 01:42, 10 January 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

It's not mentioned in any other Big Brother article, is it? I think this has been requested for previous series and consensus was always not to. I can't see any reason for it to be included. AnemoneProjectors (talk) 01:49, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It it can be found lets put it in!--Cooly123 03:18, 10 January 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

Why? AnemoneProjectors (talk) 13:18, 10 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Since Celebrity Big Brother is done for the forseable future, this could be added into each season. It could make the article more intersting since not many show use regular music in this fashion. Alex's wining song "Theme from Rocky movie" --Cooly123 22:44, 29 January 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

It could, but it's rather trivial. It wouldn't help anyone's understanding of what happened in the show. Would someone who has never watched it need to know what song was played during someone's eviction? AnemoneProjectors (talk) 23:29, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Katia

Katia is Russian. When she was born, Kazakhstan was part of the Soviet Union and she moved to the UK during its collapse. As a Russian person born in Kazakhstan myself (I'm also certainly not Kazakh, ethnically they look Chinese by the way!), maybe I suggest you write: Ekaterina "Katia" Ivanova (born 1988 in Kazakhstan) is a Russian/British model best known for being the ex-girlfriend of The Rolling Stones' Ronnie Wood. PS. No insult to any Kazakhs out there!! 81.147.92.159 (talk) 19:34, 10 January 2010 (UTC)thaliafan[reply]

Day 8 punishment

Sorry, due to this being Semi-protected, could someone add the Housemates punishment. They basically discussed nominations and were therefore punished by Big Brother. Big Brother has removed all the luxury food. Here is the source [1] --Mr tim111 (talk) 20:49, 10 January 2010 (UTC)\[reply]

Mr Tim: I dont think that the day's events should be added before they are aired on the following day's highlight show. We'll see this happen tonight and then it can be added.

Vinnie "Welcome Pack" game

He answered 9/12 correct should be notes as well as what was won. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs) 22:08, 15 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sisqó

It seems odd that this page puts an acute accent on Sisqo's name. The acute accent doesn't appear anywhere on CBB (not that I recall seeing), and his own website seems to prefer SisQo (although there are some examples of SisQó too). Just wondering why? Hibbertson (talk) 07:14, 20 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Davina's entry

I think Daina's entry into the house should only be listed in the summary and nowhere else because she was only a guest. Discuss. MSalmon (talk) 16:24, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Barely worthy of being mentioned at all. Leaky Caldron 16:33, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ok thanks, I will remove any other mention of her (except in summary) from now on MSalmon (talk) 16:36, 28 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"Seventh and final" series

Isn't it a little premature to call this edition the "final" series? Perhaps "final series to be aired on Channel 4" would be more fitting? 12bigbrother12 (talk) 05:45, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have to agree, I just saw channel five interested in the celebrity big brother series, so this may not be the last. [2] --81.98.98.6 (talk) 10:54, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"last scheduled C4 series....." Leaky Caldron 11:52, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Finale

All housguests except Heidi were present for the finale, I keep trying to add this to the article but it is being deleted.--Cooly123 23:47, 3 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

Is it important? AnemoneProjectors (talk) 00:21, 4 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

It is of note, why not have it listed?--Cooly123 00:03, 6 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

Why is it of note? AnemoneProjectors (talk) 01:29, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well on many shows the entire cast usually appears on finale night.--Cooly123 13:28, 1 May 2010 (UTC)

Integration of quotes

Since no one really wants davina's lines in here, how do I set them up into wikiqoutes?--Cooly123 00:04, 6 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cooly123 (talk • contribs)

Celebrity Big Brother 7 (UK) → Celebrity Big Brother 7

I know we've only just been through a complicated renaming of every single Big Brother UK article, but disambiguation is not necessary here, as not only are none of the other CBBs called "Celebrity Big Brother 7", but none of them have even reached seven series.
