[edit] Big Brother 2008 (UK)

Big Brother 2008 (UK) (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs) – (View log)

The last series has only just finished, the next is not for another 9 months, there will be no information on this until a few weeks before the series starts John Hayestalk 20:12, 1 September 2007 (UTC)

  • Delete. Past articles haven't been created until a week or so before the main series: once official information has been released. We should stick to this trend as per the Big Brother WikiProject - ǀ Mikay ǀ 20:14, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete It is has been strongly suggested there may not even be a 2008 series given the reduction in average number of viewers and the decline in interest. Delete for now and if/when a series is definitively confirmed, the article can be recreated a few weeks before the series starts or at such a time as there is an abundance of material to write about.

  • The auditions have already been mentioned in Big Brother (UK), so since the 2008 article has very little content apart from this, that page is now a bit redundant. I would suggest that it is redirected to the main Big Brother UK article for now, then later on when more concrete information comes out about the new series, the page can be recreated over the redirect.

  • Redirect and semi-protect. Redirects are cheap and easy. AfD it again if it's confirmed there will be no new series. Wl219 21:24, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete - the only non-trivial information in this is the prize money, and that's so completely irrelevent - in the terms of a WP article - that it's really not enough. Delete per WP:CRYSTAL as there's no confirmation the series will go ahead, there's no information worth keeping, and there's no bonus from keeping the article now over recreating it [much] closer to the date. Redirecting could be fine, depending on where. AllynJ (talk | contribs) 21:56, 1 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete, there appears to be no real information about this new series yet available, and certainly no confirmation it will take place. J Milburn 00:48, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete per WP:CRYSTAL, doesn't contain any actual content. When more information is released about the series, it may be re-created. Melsaran (talk) 10:43, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Comment: It was confirmed on the Big Brother 2007 (UK) final, with auditions being held? Channel 4 recently confirmed Celebrity Big Brother would be cancelled; they would've confirmed it then also if Big Brother wasn't to return, I'd have expected. 82.13.40.46 14:10, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete still to early for an article. Any non-trivial information can be handled in the main article.-- danntm T C 16:09, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete I love BB & am all for making this article. But if this is supposed to be a reliable. don't you think we need to gather a bit more info?--Hiltonhampton 21:30, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete future event that hasn't even been confirmed yet. -- Roleplayer 00:43, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete too early for an article. T (Formerly Known as FireSpike) 02:01, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
