	Radicell, why exactly did you add multiple iStory chapter appearances? We never did something like that for characters in multiple seasons, why shoud we do it for multiple iStory chapters? I mean, making more than one season appear on the template, otherwise we'd have, for example, four character navbar levels for Peter and Claire, who were mains since season one.

	* We're not talking about doing it for the regular characters for the exact reason you listed, IE. But I personally like it for the iStory characters because there are 1) only a handful of them who are in multiple iStories, 2) none of them are in more than two iStories, and 3) I can see the argument that [[Portal:Slow Burn Characters]] should have all the Slow Burn characters in it, not just the ones who are introduced during Slow Burn. I think it works nicely. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 13:55, 30 September 2009 (EDT)		* We're not talking about doing it for the regular characters for the exact reason you listed, IE.

			**It's all about hierarchies, in my opinion. The big hierarchies are Episode, Graphic Novel, Webisode, iStory, and Heroes Evolutions. We put characters into the category of the highest level in that hierarchy. When we split up one of those hierarchies into multiple portals (like Ryan did with iStory), some characters fall into multiple portals in that hierarchy (in this case, the Bowmans in both Faction Zero and Slow Burn). When this happens in the Episode hierarchy, we put the character into multiple categories, but leave one navbar on their page: the character navbar for the most recent season. With the iStory level though, we can't do that because 1) there are no categories for each individual iStory chapter and 2) it doesn't make sense to leave the most recent iStory volume's navbar on ''all'' the iStory character's pages. But I did think that Portal:Slow Burn should definitely include the Bowmans. So, I went with multiple navbars. If you go on some of the crew pages, you'll see a mirroring example: some crew members do more than one job; they get more than one job's navbar on their pages. --[[User:Radicell\|Radicell]] 21:25, 30 September 2009 (EDT)
