I'm currently rotating between editing and improving articles on the big three reality competitions of CBS, Survivor, Big Brother, and The Amazing Race. Something strange happened. hiddenelastic suddenly put in a cutlist request for the page that was supposed to display the top two players of Big Brother 19 and their information, and wanted to rename it Big Brother 19 Winner and Runner Up. The page was abruptly cut. However, the rename itself has been messed up and it is redirect to a red link and the cutlist entry has been buried. When I went to try and transplant the folder text from the old page, everything was wiped out.
I checked Wayback Machine, and it has the data from back in November in a snapshot. https://web.archive.org/web/20171109052623/https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Characters/BigBrother19WinnerRunnerUp
Is there anyone who can the most recent information before the botched cut?
This is the repair shop entry. (made a rather idiotic mistake and somehow double-posted the same entry with an extra mouseclick) https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=1516048485085561500&page=1#1
As a side note, on the Survivor: Heroes vs. Healers vs. Hustlers character page, a user got in touch with me. I have been advised to make the information on future entries less emotionally charged and matter-of-fact, and a lot of the Big Brother entries have been guilty of that, some of which I realized I inadvertently worsened thinking the style of writing was acceptable and I am now trying to find and rectify. The entries for Big Brother 1 I have made are attempts to be faithful to the source material (pure expansion and gameplay events and their interactions), but then you get to Season 19 and suddenly it turns into a swamp of negative commentary which is so messy I don't know what to add or remove.
