Talk:Big Brother 1 (American season)

message: I removed  because it was not implemented properly.  All (every single one) of the ten links for contestants was broken, because they all point to internal sections which don't exist. There are three stand-alone articles for contestants, including one for the winner, which we should link to, which  doesn't handle.  So, please, only add back  if you're going to also create a section for each contestant.  --Rob 22:26, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, I de-linked non-articled names, to avoid the annoyance of circular links to redirects, which point back to this page.  --Rob 22:27, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: However, according to the WikiProject, the official infobox is Big Brother Housemates, so technically this is what we should be doing. If we adhere to the guidelines, this article will be better. This includes giving the housemates sub-headings (houseguests in the American version). This makes it easier to read and main article templates can be included for larger articles. This is resolves the need to delete pages of housemates which are stubs and having to delete them. Look at Big Brother (UK series 7), as it is laid out quite well, along with the other UK Big Brother pages. Geoking66 01:04, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I have no problem with the  template *if* it is added properly, which means *first* having a section for each houseguest.  But it wasn't added properly, and all the links were defective, and there were no links to the stand-alone biographies.  There's really no justification for having ten broken links.  Once houseguest sections are made, you can link from each section to any stand-alone article.  It seems absurd to break one season's article, and then go on to break other articles, before fixing the first one broken.  I suggests in any future edits, you preview the change, and ensure *all* links you add (internal and external) work.   --Rob 02:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

message: I have upgraded this article to C-Class as it meets the criteria, the article has a good amount of information but not enough yet for B-Class. More reliable sources would be good to improve the article. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 21:55, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: When it first aired this season was referred to as Big Brother 2000 like the UK but starting with the second season the titling was changed to season numbers. When this season is referenced or talked about the producers/CBS use the title Big Brother 1 which fits into the current title scheme. Big Brother 9 (U.S.) was the only season to be called simply Big Brother with no season number or year aired once it dropped the subtitle "Til Death Do You Part". And for consistency with Big Brother US articles a consensus was reached to title this article "Big Brother 1 (U.S.) to fit with the current naming pattern. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 04:18, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

message: Big Brother 1, known at the time as Big Brother 2000 (much like the international versions, which do not use numbers to classify each season, but the year they were broadcast)
This is the start of the article. However, by just looking at the logo which says "BIG BROTHER 1", I doubt it was known as Big Brother 2000. That claim should definitely have a source. 82.141.116.251 (talk) 09:04, 17 February 2012 (UTC)

I honestly didn't know that some decision someplace now mandates that US be U.S. now, or that UK is still UK (which I would favor stay as it is). And 'OtherContent' has nothing to with any valid or invalid argument, it is part of an essay.

Hey guys I was checking the article out and apparently someone edited it and said that eddie the winner of season died recently but I can't find any proof. It appears to be an anonymous edit and I keep on investigating. I suspect that someone  been playing a death hoax  prank or joking off .
