Redirect
No clue why this page was redirected. Not a case of WP:CRYSTAL and every other season has its own page. Sulfurboy (talk) 22:47, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
 * The reason for the redirect was because there is no information, other than the confirmation for an 18th season of Big Brother, available at this time. While I acknowledge CBS confirming Big Brother 18, there is still a possibility the show may get cancelled after this season; you never know what the future might bring.--OfficerAPC (talk) 15:45, 13 July 2015 (UTC)


 * It is a case of WP:TOOSOON. Every season we have to go through this...and with Survivor, Amazing Race, etc...and every year it is kept as a redirect until a few months before it actually airs, once concrete details of start dates, movie-in dates and so on.  This can be enforced by going to WP:AFD if need be, but one would hope that common sense can prevail first. Tarc (talk) 15:56, 13 July 2015 (UTC)


 * The single-purpose account insists on edit-warring, so, AfD filed. Tarc (talk) 20:24, 13 July 2015 (UTC)


 * I say the article shall have a redirect to the "lobby page," just like for Big Brother 17 (U.S.) last year.--OfficerAPC (talk) 20:53, 13 July 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, weigh in at Articles for deletion/Big Brother 18 (U.S.), "redirect" is a valid option for deletion discussions, it's just that delete is the default. Tarc (talk) 21:17, 13 July 2015 (UTC)

Removing the Redirect
Now that CBS has more information about the confirmed 18th season of Big Brother, the redirect may be removed.--OfficerAPC (talk) 22:18, 26 March 2016 (UTC)

About New Information
If the information is a rumor, it is not to be included until it is confirmed by reliable sources.--OfficerAPC (talk) 20:54, 10 June 2016 (UTC)

Roadkill Competition
There has been no roadkill competition yet on this season. So please delete it. If you are going to put it on here, then explain what it is. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.187.108.155 (talk) 16:14, 24 June 2016 (UTC)

Constantly update the page so that the information is accurate to what happens on the Live Feeds and the show itself.

Update to show that Natalie won the Never-Not, meaning a line should be put through her name under the Have-Not section for Week 6. Also update that Paul has nominated Paulie and Bridgette for eviction. And then once the Veto competition happens later today, on July 30th, it should be updated again to show who won that competition.

2nd request
I believe that for all of the news that comes up from the show, including HoH/Veto competition wins, evictions, care package winners, and possible returns from the round trip tickets, the page should be updated as soon as the information is released to the public from various reliable sources.

Only update after competitions shown in episodes, i.e. removing that Victor won HoH week 8. Put new information up there after the episodes. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Namz011 (talk • contribs) 05:29, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

I disagree with that, as I believe it should be updated after the competitions happen on the feeds. However, there are a lot of edits that have been made too early. For example, Da'Vonne and Zakiyah's evictions were edited in hours before it happened. And now, Paulie and Corey are marked as nominated, when the ceremony hasn't happened yet today. Update the information as it goes on the feeds, but don't always make assumptions, as there's a chance that plans could change last minute. 100.33.130.200 (talk) 20:47, 12 August 2016 (UTC)

Michelle and Paul should be bolded as the note suggests

Da'Vonne was evicted 16th place in Big Brother 17, not 15th (as there were a total of 17 houseguests). In addition, almost every night Big Brother aired during the Olympics, it rated #2 in its slot as the Olympics took 1st place. Gc1215 (talk) 22:06, 25 August 2016 (UTC)

last line in summary should read "Natalie and Victor would have become", replacing "would of become"

{{edit semi-protected|Big Brother 18 (U.S.)

I have a small edit request I think would help the page. The first would be Having Michelle shown as "bb care package" in week 9 versus "co-head of household." Since we have the note and he nominations in bold, it would help it become more clear that Natalie was technically the HOH and Michelle was granted a power to make a nominee. I think the current way it is listed does not show well that Natalie was the HOH. Diamond pov's are shown in that blue color and coup detat's are purple so I think some kind of teal color would work. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bgc7676 (talk • contribs) 22:25, 9 September 2016 (UTC)

In the voting history chart, for Week 7, Zakiyah was also evicted on Day 58 like Bridgette because it was a double eviction. Please change Day 51 to Day 58 in the heading.

Day numeration
Can someone please explain why the day numeration is so messed up? I fixed the eviction days for houseguests on the right table, but all over the summaries someone seems to have added an extra week (7 days) to each action. Someone thinks that Glenn was evicted on day 2 and then absolutely nothing happened for a week until Jozea was evicted on day 16.... The game hasn't even been going on for 30 days, as somebody assumes with Bronte's eviction being put under day 30. — Preceding unsigned comment added by ZyMarionete (talk • contribs) 11:47, 17 July 2016 (UTC)
 * The eviction days are correct because the season premiere was pre-recorded, currently it is Day 33 in the house --MSalmon (talk) 12:14, 17 July 2016 (UTC)

Grammar error
"For being the last two HouseGuests to place an egg in their special "Have" holder, Natalie and Victor would of became Have-Nots for the week, but Natalie was a never-not and Victor won HoH."

It's would have or would've, not would of

Care Package
I think an extra column should be made either in the top part or at the bottom to show care packages. I think it definitely helps to see who got the care packages and what they did. It would look like this if we put it below. There is also the option to put it above.


 * Color key:
 * – Big Sister
 * – Category 4
 * – Freakazoids
 * – Team Unicorn

If we put it up top it would look like this.


 * Color key:
 * – Big Sister
 * – Category 4
 * – Freakazoids
 * – Team Unicorn


 * Comment: There is already a table that shows all of this information, and for lack of redunacy, does not belong on the "voting history" table. Thank you. Chase (talk) 18:22, 3 October 2016 (UTC)

Co-HOH

 * Color key:
 * – Big Sister
 * – Category 4
 * – Freakazoids
 * – Team Unicorn

The Co-HOH should be shown as this. It distinctly shows Michelle was voted as co hoh Bgc7676 (talk) 04:23, 14 November 2016 (UTC)
