Talk:Big Brother (Australian TV series) season 6

message: A sentence under the Week 14 heading reads "She was then told that she, and three friends in the house, would later that day dine with Big Brother". I added that it was BB producer Kris Noble who they actually dined with. It was removed by User:JD UK as "irrelevant". I think the sentence makes more sense by including whom, exactly, they dined with, rather than just stating it was "Big Brother". Can we get some discussion on this? Cnwb 23:59, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Unless the housemates saw, or were told who the voice of Big Brother is or was at the time, it's irrelevant.  We don't need to know what the housemates didn't.  â€”JD[don't talk|email] 10:01, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Also, saying that they dined with Kris Noble if they dined with Big Brother could make some people think they dined with the man himself.  â€”JD[don't talk|email] 10:07, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

text: The IMDb says here that Kris Noble is the voice of Big Brother from 2004 onwards, but another page does say that there is another voice for the most recent Big Brother seasons.  I guess I trust the IMDb a little too much if that is incorrect.  talk to JD wants e-mail 20:14, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Even back in the Peter Abbott days, there were different voices of Big Brother; Abbott did not voice all of the Big Brother commands. There was even a female voice in season one. Asa01 21:07, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Can anyone help with providing a summary of prizes for contestants ?
:Which ones?  All of them?  â€”JD[don't talk|email] 10:53, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Most of the contestants got the same prize - $2500, $5000, or $10,000; a car or scooter; and a holiday.  I'd certainly help, but I dunno if people think it should go in; me not being people and all.  â€”JD[don't talk|email] 12:28, 1 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I removed the claim that Big Brother votes follow the Approval vote method. They don't. Anyone may vote both evict or save and multiple times for any nominated housemate. Approval voting allows only one approval for any or multiple candidates, but not multiple approvals which is what Big Brother allows. Approval voting also does not feature a disapproval vote (evict), so the inclusion of "Approval voting" is pretty meaningless. Asa01 04:55, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

message: I just noticed this article in my watchlist - Wikipedia:WikiProject Big Brother#Naming articles states "Articles about a Big Brother series are named Big Brother ([country] series [number])".   I suggest the recent name changes to the Australian BB articles should be reversed. -- Chuq 05:09, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

message: Although each individual use of each copyrighted image on this page would qualify as "fair use" in U.S. law, as a whole, having 28 copyrighted images would not qualify as fair use. In the U.S., the quantity of the copied work is of principal importance in determining whether the use is acceptable or not. I have removed all but the most important copyrighted images. Note that an article on the each individual person could include that person's image without problems, if anyone wants to do that.

replies: text: Just a question, I am not disagreeing with you (it actually makes good sense), just curious for your imput, but since most individual constestant pages are not allowed anyway to have a photo of them on (since they are not considered famous/worthy enough), isn't what you just suggested a bit of a Catch-22 situation? Can't have their photos here, can't have them there. Eh, I am new(ish) and am just intrested in the advice of people like yourself. Hope that is okay. ChenBot 01:31, 17 September 2006 (UTC)

message: Rachel (2001), Nicole (2002), Jaime (2003), Violeta (2004) were all evicted through existing housemates voting for which intruder they wanted to stay. Each year, these specials were advertised as "Housemate's Revenge". Only Jaime from 2003 is quoted as being evicted in this way. Due to no public involvement, this is significant and thus I have added these to the respective years' HM tables.
This would also include Lauren for this year as Big Brother asked the HMs to vote which Intruder they wanted to keep.

message: The following seems irrelevant:
Despite publicity using the term "World First", international seasons of Big Brother have previously used similar concepts.  The fourth Greek season had a series called Big Mother where nine houseguests participated in the game with their mothers, with whom they had to co-exist during the contest. The houseguests' mothers were not eligible to win the prize, but had to stay with their sons and daughters until their eviction.  Another Big Brother series had housemates enter the House with their mothers, but the mothers did not stay.
To me it seems like original research to decide that this is somehow similar to or is in any way connected to or comparable with the Krystal/Karen mother/daughter secret relationship task. Their's was a secret relationship. Their challenge was to not be detected. Other housemates had the challenge to discover the secret relationship in the house. The fact that it was a mother and a child is the only similarity with Big Mother. Presumably in Big Mother the mother child teams were not secret. Their were no challenges to keep the secret, or for others to uncover it. Also, in Big Mother, all the housemates had their mothers, not just one. And in the case of Krystal/Karen, if successful (which they were), both would be considered normal housemates. They could be evicted separately, and were not required to stay together, and were both eligble to win. It seems to me someone included this as they were miffed at the "world first" advertising hyperbole. That seems pretty silly, and in any event, the editor has not successfully proven that the Krystal/Karen situation wasn't a word first, because Big Mother was a way different thing all together. Anyway, who really takes these advertising slogans seriously anyway? Format 08:35, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
