[edit] Merging contestants' articles

I've nominated all of the contestants' articles (except the Big/Final Four) to be merged here. Reasons:

  • If a page is very short and cannot or should not be expanded terribly much, it often makes sense to merge it with a page on a broader topic.
  • Also, much of material from the contestants' articles were directly lifted this website, so it would be copyright violations, but instead of deleting them altogether,lets just put them all here, just like what they did with Big Brother UK series 6. Howard the Duck 17:01, 9 January 2006 (UTC)
Blame that on Kevin nico. He has developed a habit uploading like crazy. You better tell him like I did. - 上村七美 14:39, 18 January 2006 (UTC)
I'll be merging the articles, I need help on how to write everything because I haven't watched the whole show. Unless somebody objects, that is.Howard the Duck 09:03, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
I think the best way to give sections to all the housemates is to write the most significant events (I forgot the better term) that they have inside the house. Maybe I'll contribute something later. - 上村七美 13:17, 19 January 2006 (UTC)
Perhaps reading this deletion request will help. I myself couldn't merge the articles because I haven't followed the series. Howard the Duck 15:14, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
Copy and pasted the contestant's articles already. Looked for NPOV entries and had them edited. Perhaps I've missed some of them so anyone can correct them. Also, we should have a chronology section. Howard the Duck 07:28, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Contestant's Own Page

I think every contestant should have their own page/articles by now since the Season 1 of Pinoy Big Brother is over and they are all individual celebrities now. As for "copyright violations" case, I think we should remove the About him and Favorites section rather than merging the contestant's article to Pinoy Big Brother, Season 1 13:35, 21 January 2006 (UTC)

I would still want all of the names of contestants to be redirected here. First, they're too short to have their own articles, and almost all of them were copy and pasted from the website provided. If the articles would be improved significantly then they'd deserve their own article. But as of know, I'd like them to be merge here. Also, why was the notice removed? The issue wasn't decided yet. I'm bringing them back. Howard the Duck 06:52, 22 January 2006 (UTC)
Better tell that to ApprenticeFan. Blame him for removing the merge links. - 上村七美 12:42, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Separation from main article page

Since some contestants may have been notable already, lets organize a staw poll on which housemate will get his/her own page. Note that Wikipedia is not a democracy so even if there are lots (and I mean LOTS) of votes but no consensus the proposal can't be done. --Howard the Duck | talk, 09:36, 3 May 2006 (UTC)

I think, aside from Nene, the only one who deserves to have his own page was Sam. From his stint in PBB, his popularity shot high enough to cut his own album. But I may be wrong. - 上村七美 | talk 16:16, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
Support. I agree, Sam Milby may have an article. I dunno about other editors who might put it at AFD. --Howard the Duck 01:05, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rename to Pinoy Big Brother (season 1)

As said at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (television). Any objections? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Howard the Duck (talk • contribs)

I'll say it's a go. - 上村七美 | talk 02:10, 29 July 2006 (UTC)
Ok, I'll be moving it. If season 2 is created lets move it there too (it's a redirect at this moment). --Howard the Duck 03:42, 29 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:PBB TBN percentage.JPG

Image:PBB TBN percentage.JPG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 05:22, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Final - evicted?

No one gets to be evicted at the finale, right? Unless Nene lived there... --Howard the Duck 10:26, 30 June 2007 (UTC)

Technically (if you see the other BB articles), the other placers are evicted from the House, leaving the winner inside and getting out of it too. But, it's just my opinion. - 上村七美 | talk 10:55, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Other BB articles say that too, I'll try to ask at WP:BIGBRO. --Howard the Duck 11:28, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
