Text and/or other creative content from Big Brother voting history (USA season 5) was copied or moved into Big Brother 5 (U.S. season)#Voting history. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists.

A More In-Line Look[edit]

I've given this article a makeover to make it look more like it should - following the WikiProject Big Brother Guidelines. I hope that we can change the American Big Brother articles to look like, for example Big Brother 7 UK article, which is probably one of the best. Geoking66 20:46, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Making this look visually like Big Brother (UK series 7) is nice, but unimportant (though I do support your changes). The main thing, I would like to emulate from Big Brother (UK series 7) is the "References" section, since editors of that article have properly added sources for each addition (unfortunately, when I split up the main US article into seasons, it didn't have references (beyond the main CBS BB page), and I didn't add them myself). --Rob 21:09, 28 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:BB5Cast.jpg[edit]

Image:BB5Cast.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 Wikipedia articles 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 01:01, 1 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Natalie entering on Day 35[edit]

This in all actuality is incorrect, Adria and Natalie switched every three days in the house, with Adria going in on the launch night. Although nobody knew it, Natalie technichally would have entered the house for the first time on Day 4, she just became independent from Adria on day 35.

Actually on Day 35 didn't she become a full HouseGuest. I thought that if they were caught something happened to one of them. And on Day 35 she had earned the right to compete as a separate HouseGuest. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 07:19, 3 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Natalie/Adria in Voting History[edit]

Should we colspan 2 Adria and Natalie's voting history area into both boxes for Weeks 1-4? 71.31.95.182 17:02, 9 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No the voting history is fine, Natalie wasn't an eligible contestant for the first four weeks. She became a HouseGuest on Day 35 (Week 5) so it is fine. Those were Adria's votes for the first four weeks. ♪♫Alucard 16♫♪ 18:50, 18 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Not upgraded to C-Class[edit]

This article needs some kind of reliable sources and references before it can be moved to C-Class. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 22:02, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Worth mentioning[edit]

The 90 minite premiere first and only time

Days[edit]

I was rewatching this season on youtube today and I caught that it said Adria was evicted on Day 65 on one of the shows. Are we sure that the days are correct? Or was this an error on the shows part? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.104.10.80 (talk) 04:39, 15 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
