User:Alucard 16/sandbox5/Old BB Infobox Replacement Proposals

Examples of how information from Template:Big Brother housemates and Template:Big Brother endgame can be integrated into the Housemates tables. Templates can be created so at all an editor would need to do is put  in the Results column and it would automatically take care of the formatting and coloring.

These example are using the special Pinoy Big Brother seasons where multiple batches compete separately then form one batch at the end to determine the ultimate winner. These formats can be adopted for other Big Brother seasons based on the need of the season.

Completed editions
This uses Housemates table from Pinoy Big Brother: Lucky 7 and how it could possibly look like with the fields from the existing Big Brother season templates merged into it. These are two possible ideas on how they could look.

This is how the current table would look with the "Entered", "Exited" and "Results" columns and colors integrated into the Housemates table in its current form.

This table borrows an idea from the Survivor (U.S. TV series) season tables with the "Original batch" and "Merged batch" columns.

Ongoing editions
Using Pinoy Big Brother: Otso here is how an ongoing edition could look by using "Example 2" from above. Instead of the last column saying "Results" while a season is in progress it can say "Status" which would be more accurate.

All-Stars format
This uses Big Brother 7 (U.S.) as the example but here is how an All-Stars formatted table can look.

Bigg Boss
This is an example using Bigg Boss (Hindi season 10) on how the new infobox and table format would look. For articles like Bigg Boss (Hindi season 10) that are underdeveloped and don't have much content the table won't outright replace the Housemate section. Instead the table would be placed above the text of the Housemate section as seen in the "Housemate section format" below. Eventually the goal for WP:BIGBRO should be to go back to articles like these, review them and bring them up to compliance with Manual of Style at MOS:TV and WP:BIGBRO.

Additional notes
--Gonnym (talk) 15:12, 14 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I believe that use of colors should be limited in infobox and not used to note every variety of thing that happened in the house.
 * If a color is used and it isn't used just for the result column, then it should be used for the whole row and not part of it. In the example above you can see that in one row both yellow and green are used (I copied the existing example). The example at the bottom shows the use of one color.
 * If a color is decided upon that should be used for something across all articles, then it should probably be a template in the style of the CMain, CGuest etc templates - this will lead to more consistency and easier to write then "style="background:#73FB76;". The example at the bottom shows the use of a template.
 * As always, if you do use a color, use a table key to explain what each color represents. In the above example, I have no idea what the yellow color is for.
