per the Beauty and the Geek page, I'm not going to fight with you on this, so a few things:

1. the last names are correct, even if they aren't cited 2. look around nearly any page, nobody cites last names, its absurd to insist that you do it for this page 3. if you so much need last names cited, then insist on the same thing for seasons 1-3 of the show, not just season 4 4. in your rush to rip down what was on the page for the cast, you destroyed the season 4 challenges section... so if you want to talk about vandalism, you might want to look at what your doing —Preceding unsigned comment added by BATG (talk • contribs)

"You write on my talk page "The last names are correct, even if they aren't cited." How do you know? If it's a fact, then that information had to come from somewhere. --24.215.162.198 19:32, 3 December 2007 (UTC)" because I'm one of those names and I know they are all correct, which is why I tried to keep them up there. --BATG —Preceding unsigned comment added by BATG (talk • contribs) 21:04, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

The above claim is unverifiable. I've answered in detail on BATG's talk page. --24.215.162.198 21:14, 3 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Big Brother (U.S.) articles.

Hi and thanks to contributing to the Big Brother USA articles. I just have some problems to address with you. In Big Brother (U.S.) this paragraph: For all seasons, eviction night is hosted by Julie Chen, wife of CBS President Les Moonves and co-host of the network's The Early Show. Television critics gave Chen largely negative reviews[citation needed] during her first season (2000), citing wooden delivery, stilted interaction with the studio audience, weak interviews with evictees on the live programs, and her overuse of the phrase "But first..."[citation needed] This led fans to dub her "the Chenbot", a moniker of which Chen is aware and says she accepts. had two citations at the end which both were about Chen's negative reviews and her acceptance of the term "the Chenbot". ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 22:17, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

For Big Brother 9 (U.S.) the article was fine as is. And is important to note that a companion show that aired last season might not air this season. Also we don't include names of HouseGuests from any site until the launch show airs and they are revealed by Julie. Also more than just fan sites reported that Big Brother 9 could have been a season of Celebrity Big Brother plus we don't mention stuff from fan sites in Wikipedia articles. If we did then we would have to mention that some fan sites are saying that there will be a shopping task similar to Big Brother UK. Someone before me removed the cast information but I have reverted a lot of edits back since there was nothing wrong with the information. Also the guy that has been confirmed is not Tony Benton but Tony Westbrook of Benton and you did not get the information from Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (Little Rock, Ark.) you got it from Fox Reality.com and they got it from Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (Little Rock, Ark.) and another reason we don't list HouseGuests prior to the launch show is that they could be disqualified prior to the start of the show. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 22:17, 14 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Big Brother

Hi and thanks for your reply. We usually wait until launch night for the HouseGuests even if there has been some leaked in the media. Once the season starts you will find that the articles are up to date as events happen which is why we also have a spoiler tag once the show begins. About the article style with the main article we are aware that the article is written in a passive tone, we also have Prose/MoS issues as well. Please see the talk page for the review on the article. A lot of editors try to improve main pages and season related Big Brother pages when Big Brother is off season. We know some articles are written to the tone like fan magazines and we are working on it. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 22:12, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Journeyman

I haven’t seen the last episode of Journeyman, “Perfidia”, so I can’t say whether they speculate on Livia’s jump in that episode, but I do know it wasn’t the first time, because I heard them do so. I think it was in “Blowback”, the episode where Dan got shot (not “Double Down”, which you probably rightly reverted). Just letting you know I re-edited something you reverted. —Frungi (talk) 03:19, 14 January 2008 (UTC)
