Big Brother 2008 (UK)

DeleteToo early. Most of the contenet is hear say. Not good enough sources. Recreate page when more facts have been comfirmed. Hiltonhampton (talk) 00:11, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This AfD nomination was incomplete. It is listed now. DumbBOT (talk) 14:37, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - I see no problems with it. We known it is being planned and it is fair enough to have the article. Maybe trim to established referencable facts, but keep the article. Ben W Bell talk 14:49, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete and redirect to a "Big Brother 2008" section in Big Brother 2007 (UK). The only verifiable info in this article is audition dates and places, but Wikipedia is not an advertising service. Brad (talk) 14:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as an officially announced and verified series on a major network, which will begin airing in only a few months. 23skidoo (talk) 15:10, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Ben W Bell. Why delete, so it can be re-created in few months (or less)? Do some research, there's probably more info out there. Jauerback (talk) 17:08, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Just because we'll have to create it in awile doesn't mean that we keep a bad article. Also for an event so far away the only dources that can really be used would be official press releases. Blogs or fansite won't do.--Hiltonhampton (talk) 21:12, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Big Brother USA 9 has a page so why doesn't Big Brother UK 9 have one.In23065 (talk) 18:44, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment. Because that article describes how the US series has been brought forward to fill the gap left by a lack of scripted shows, using reliable sources. The UK article lists audition venues, "who knows where the house will be?" and "there might be chavs but then again there might not be". Brad (talk) 20:55, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment Also BB9 USA starts three months ahead of BB9 UK therefore we know more about it.And a lot of the content is contains words like, "perhaps", "rumored", "uncomfirmed" ect.--Hiltonhampton (talk) 21:08, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    - Comment Big Brother 9 US follows the guidelines as per WP:BIGBRO. Quote from the project page "Articles for a series of Big Brother should not be created until there are promos on television. This, and only this, should be taken as a sign that Big Brother will be happening, and is good enough a reason to create an article. Anything else, unless it can be confirmed by some high up-there television executive guy, is not enough reason to create a series' article, and is most likely speculation." There have been commercials airing for Big Brother 9 on CBS. Also the main show will return on February 12, 2008 and the companion show Big Brother: After Dark. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 20:02, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Keep, notable television program. Everyking (talk) 03:01, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - far too early, there's nothing to say about it yet except speculation. This can always be recreated later when there is actual significant information available. Terraxos (talk) 04:03, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Might as well keep but ensure that everything is referenced and mere rumours/wishful thinking/inventions from forums are eliminated. The JPS ^{talk to me} 16:12, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - still too early for the page. If it wasn't for the fact of the Writer's strike we would be saying the same thing about Big Brother 9 US because if it wasn't for the writer's strike the season wouldn't have been pushed up from the summer to air in the winter/spring. The BB9 UK page should be created sometime in late April or early May since the season was already confirmed when it was announced that Celebrity Big Brother wouldn't return in 2008. ♪♫Al ucard 16♫♪ 20:04, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. It's going to happen, and the article's going to end up being recreated anyway, and there's enough verifiable information for a stub at least right now, which will only grow with time. There's no reason to delete this.--h i s ^{s p a c e} _{r e s e a r c h} 05:48, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Just becuase it's going to be recreated doesn't mean that we should leep a bad article. There is virtually no info what so ever.--Hiltonhampton (talk) 15:17, 11 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Keep. BB9 is notable and people are discussing it. 82.150.99.2 (talk) 13:36, 15 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Not yet its not--Hiltonhampton (talk) 17:56, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
