[edit] The Eviction & Percentage Table

moved from Talk:Big Brother (UK series 7) Tra (Talk) 19:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

I did start the Percentage & Vote part. Do we really need the horrific colour coding? The table will look much better without the Red, Blue and Green Colours as the background. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Coreix (talk • contribs)

For comparison, here's the current table:

Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Week 6 Week 7 Week 8 Week 9 Week 10 Week 11 Week 12 Week 13 Against Public Vote Bonnie Glyn Lea Richard Sezer Nikki Sam Grace Nikki Imogen Lisa Mikey Nikki Aisleyne Susie Lea Richard All but Jayne Jayne Richard Imogen & Susie; Michael & Spiral; Pete & Richard Imogen Jennie Mikey Susie Imogen Richard Aisleyne Glyn Jennie Nikki Pete Richard Evicted and Vote Percentage Bonnie 78.0% to evict Sezer 91.6% to evict Sam 53.7% to evict Grace 87.9% to evict Lisa 60.3% to evict Aisleyne 67.3% to move Jonathan Aisleyne's choice to evict Lea 53.8% to evict Nikki 37.2% to evict Jayne 67.1% to evict Michael & Spiral 9.7% to save Mikey 48.5% (out of 4) to evict Susie 59.4% (out of 3) to evict Imogen 62.0% to evict Grace Lea Mikey (Not chosen by fellow Housemates to return) Jennie 0.9% (out of 6) Aisleyne 22.0% (out of 3) Nikki 6.5% (out of 5) Glyn 38.8% (out of 2) Richard 9.2% (out of 4) Pete 61.2% to win

And here's how it would look without the coloured backgrounds:

Week 1 Week 2 Week 3 Week 4 Week 5 Week 6 Week 7 Week 8 Week 9 Week 10 Week 11 Week 12 Week 13 Against Public Vote Bonnie Glyn Lea Richard Sezer Nikki Sam Grace Nikki Imogen Lisa Mikey Nikki Aisleyne Susie Lea Richard All but Jayne Jayne Richard Imogen & Susie; Michael & Spiral; Pete & Richard Imogen Jennie Mikey Susie Imogen Richard Aisleyne Glyn Jennie Nikki Pete Richard Evicted and Vote Percentage Bonnie 78.0% to evict Sezer 91.6% to evict Sam 53.7% to evict Grace 87.9% to evict Lisa 60.3% to evict Aisleyne 67.3% to move Jonathan Aisleyne's choice to evict Lea 53.8% to evict Nikki 37.2% to evict Jayne 67.1% to evict Michael & Spiral 9.7% to save Mikey 48.5% (out of 4) to evict Susie 59.4% (out of 3) to evict Imogen 62.0% to evict Grace Lea Mikey (Not chosen by fellow Housemates to return) Jennie 0.9% (out of 6) Aisleyne 22.0% (out of 3) Nikki 6.5% (out of 5) Glyn 38.8% (out of 2) Richard 9.2% (out of 4) Pete 61.2% to win

I prefer it with the colours. — AnemoneProjectors (talk) 21:29, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

--- Neither are grade. Hopefully we can find an alternative method.

[edit] Eviction Table - Discussion (2)

Ok I got bored so the Eviction Table right now is really cramp. Can we maybe move the setting. I created this in frontpage. {{Was lazy to do it on Wiki, and nor am I good at it lol}}

I like it, but I think the housemates in the final week should all have a separate row. J Di 17:36, 12 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA review

It's well-written, well sourced, and all the images have fair use rationale. I wasn't sure about the charts, but the article does need them. I grant this article GA status. Good work! -- Scorpion 18:49, 7 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA revoked

I have removed this article from the GA list becasue-

• too much "in-universe" context (eg. Day 43 should be replaced with a real date, such as July 27, or this date should be added into the article with the "Day" also)
• Some sources are no longer active (eg. 1 and 21) and some do not have all of the necessary fields filled in (eg. 49)
• there is not 1 reference at all in the lead. Dalejenkins | The Apprentice (UK)'s FA plea-please have your say! 14:08, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

With Big Brother seasons/series referring to something that happened on a certain day like "On Day xx two housemates were nominated for eviction." Is a lot more concise than having this "On June xx ..." Alucard 16 18:31, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] geek task

no mention of the geek task in week 2? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.132.84.156 (talk) 12:25, 31 August 2007 (UTC)
