I really think that if anyone has time to go through this article they should, because it needs much help in improving sentence structure and small grammatical errors. RELBlack ( talk) 09:06, November 6, 2012 (UTC)
I recently reverted countless additions of fancruft, unreliable sources and statements and unverifiable last names of the contestants on this show. However, it was reverted by AmericanDad86 ( talk · contribs). The article is as of now not a good article like it once was. As the nominator who helped it achieve GA status, I would like to revert the undue weight here on this article added by vandalizing fans of the show. If the article stays as it is, it may be removed from the Good Article's list. Best, jona talk to me 14:28, May 27, 2013 (UTC)
So the page is on lock right now since the death of someone from season 12 was published in many sources. This is a CLASSIC case of "it doesn't matter WHAT the facts are, as long as there are reliable sources."---and this information HAS been reported far and wide all going-back to ONE source which is the woman's TV-network. As an editor, I'm not real satisfied with that, because an obituary would at least confirm age and maybe some other public details. We really don't even have an exact date of death, just the date that it was reported.
I think that we could safely edit something like (reported deceased), with a cite or ref to a reliable source article--(of which there are many), and leave it at that. I know that we don't usually require primary sources or death-certificates, or even obituaries per-se, but something is weird here. It could very well be that the family, (who are BLP--and even the woman shortly after death is considered BLP)-----is in mourning right now, and/or do not want publicity, but I am NOT comfortable with asterisking a "deceased" unless it is verified further, and until then the reality character/person is "reported-as" deceased imo. 2601:C:6783:6A01:C80C:A620:F3FB:D718 ( talk) 02:00, 5 April 2015 (UTC)This is me-I logged-in and added it-if someone wants to move the info.??? but I thought that putting it next to her name would help readers who are looking-for that info. find it quicker. Also-the ages are pretty ridiculous for ALL of these women. I don't think that we need an "age" column unless the ages are verified. ChangalangaIP ( talk) 02:11, 5 April 2015 (UTC)
Originally when I made the decision to split the season's of Bad Girls Club into their own individual articles back in 2010, I introduced the 'Duration of Cast' subsection. I am beginning to regret ever doing so as it continues to be the prime suspect of vandalism by IPs and WP:VOAs on Bad Girls Club articles. I decided to bring this topic to the forefront of WP:RfC and users who are regular combats of the constant vandalism found on Bad Girls Club related articles (and others who stumble upon them), to decide whether or not the "Duration of Cast" is encyclopedic and appropriate for this subgenre of television. The purpose of the "Duration of Cast" is to showcase the cast members appearance on their respective seasons by using various color codes for various denotations (e.g., removed, replacement joins). This table, though fails WP:ACCESS, was based on another subgenre of television such as game shows, whereas Bad Girls Club is a reality television show not based on competitive challenges. Because of this, the "Duration of Cast" is not appropriate for this subgenre of television, as producers do not plan to have a cast member removed from the show (even if it's always an occurrence) as it is not a game show like Survivor and Big Brother where producers plan to have an eviction or an ejection from the show as it progresses into the season. In Bad Girls Club, there is no eviction episode or an episode where producers plan to have a cast member voted out; if this was the case the "Duration of Cast" would be appropriate for Bad Girls Club. Currently, the "Duration of Cast" is seen as a battleground for IPs and VOAs who constantly rearrange or introduce color codes and start a color war based on fan cruft and are not based on reliable sources; rarely do you see an IP or VOA introduced a non-social media source to the article(s). Since its introduction the table used in Bad Girls Club have been duplicated into other non-game shows such as The Real Housewives. I would like to get consensus on this issue, should Bad Girls Club articles (with the exception of Bad Girls All-Star Battle) be stripped from the usage of the "Duration of Cast" based on the information provided above or should we continue to encourage the table and if so, which methods should be performed to tackle the current issues it faces? (vandalism, WP:ACCESS, color wars, and encyclopedic). Best, jona (talk) 16:11, 30 June 2015 (UTC)
The 16th and 17th installments of the series have been confirmed by Oxygen via television promos. The 16th season is called Social Disruption and will premier in September of 2016. [1] The 17th installment will be an East Coast vs. West Coast installment and is still in the casting process. [2] This information should be added to the main page for Bad Girls Club.

Since the cast photo is out and we know he girls we should make a page for bgc16 Baconnnmmmmmmm ( talk) 23:40, 19 July 2016 (UTC)
Why isn't there a bgc 16 page yet. It literally premieres in 2 weeks. The casting special is next week. Quit making a page and then delete it. There needs to be a page for it. Starbucks6789 ( talk) 07:00, 6 September 2016 (UTC)
Ok this is getting ridiculous that there is no page for BGC 16: Social Disruption. There are promos everywhere and the casting special premieres in 3 days and the first episode premieres in 10 days. There has always been a page for a new season probably a month before the actual season has aired. Now we are 3 days away and there's still no page.

the minimum requirement for a season article is a sourced episode list. At the moment the only information available is a cast list. When the episode table can be created, a season article can be created at Bad Girls Club (season 16). Can you create a sourced episode table? If so, then create a draft at Draft:Bad Girls Club (season 16) and submit it for creation. If it's suitable for moving to article space, Bad Girls Club (season 16) can be unprotected and the draft moved there. It's really that simple. -- AussieLegend ( ✉) 15:40, 10 September 2016 (UTC)

Jaimee and Jaz from season 15 are actually from Philadelphia, PA. Not from Florida. Paulkellyy ( talk) 02:00, 18 May 2021 (UTC)
theres a tell all video of the Clermont twins explaining their experiences and they revealed that the cast members/the girls fed their dogs some laxatives and the production company was getting charged/sued for allowing animal abuse as well as other situations they revealed on it.
this probably would have given it their own section under controversy — Preceding unsigned comment added by 199.204.164.130 ( talk) 18:46, 6 October 2021 (UTC)

Now I get that the premise of the show is to call grown women "girls", but I believe that we, as encyclopedia editors, should not stoop to the level of the show. As I have been taught to be a gentleman, it is demeaning to call grown women "girls" as if they are minors or children or immature. Please let's keep the colloquial term to a minimum according to the needs of the article and the inherent dignity of women, especially those who choose to participate in this series.
