It asks everyone why they're the biggest Heroes fan in 30 seconds or less and says you have a chance to be on TV. |

Your thoughts? I'm gonna compile my videos since they're all short and submit that.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 15:18, 5 September 2008 (EDT) |

*I guess Main Page is the wrong place to discuss this? I put it here 'cause I figured it'd go under news, if anything.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 14:42, 6 September 2008 (EDT) |

** Oh, I didn't think there was anything to discuss. I thought you were just letting us know. What did you want to discuss? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:47, 6 September 2008 (EDT) |

I changed the very old "Next Graphic Novel" section to direct to [[Heroes Reborn]]. No spoilers, just a point to the new page. I figure that it should be a bit more prominent than it is. Also, I figure that's what people are looking for when they come to the site. Any objections? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:21, 20 April 2014 (EDT) |

==Preparing for S.3== |

Given that we are entering the last week before the season premiere, what about replacing the "latest webisode" blurb with the "latest episode" one (i.e. [[Powerless]])? The "Going Postal" webisodes are (sorta) a closed book, and with NBC's heavy promotion of the third season, it's likely that new people will stumble upon Heroes Wiki, presumably looking for info on where the series left off: [[Powerless]]. [[User:Pierre|Pierre]] 07:27, 15 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
* Agree. By the way, [[Timm Keppler]] and [[Jim Martin]] are busy writing the next set of webisodes now, I believe. As far as I can gather, they won't have anything to do with ''Going Postal''. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 07:49, 15 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
** Since we're gonna have the Eps, GNs, and Webisodes this season, how are we going to arrange them on the Main page? Personaly, I'd go for all three in the left hand column below the welcome message. --{{User:SacValleyDweller/sig}} 10:26, 15 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
*** Yeah, and if you're looking for order, I would suggest eps first, then webisodes, then GNs. If that takes up too much room, the DYK section can be trimmed or hidden--it's really just filler anyway. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 10:45, 15 September 2008 (EDT) |

I combined the [[Template:languagebar|languagebar]] with the [[Template:mediabar|mediabar]] since the language bar was looking kind of skimpy. I changed the name to the all-encompassing "Sites Related to Heroes Wiki". If it's an issue, let me know and I can revert everything. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:57, 8 April 2015 (EDT) |

I think we need to archive everyone's character history into Season One and Season Two, like we've done with all the main characters. Thoughts?--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 09:00, 25 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
* |
* Looks good to me! ([[User:Admin|Admin]] ([[User talk:Admin|talk]]) 17:00, 8 April 2015 (EDT)) |
||
** Yeah, I don't see any reason to archive [[Meredith]]'s history or [[Nidia]]'s history, for example. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 15:35, 25 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
***We should archive only for characters who have been in more than one season. It makes the wiki look better and more organized.--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 16:26, 25 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
****Ditto. Also, I think we should write the summary for seasons chronologically. For example, in [[the Haitian]]'s article, the summary for the ''It Takes a Village'' arc was put behind the summary for the episodes in the Season 1 summary. It'd be less confusing for others if we put it in front of the season 1 episodic history. [[User:Chrisyu357|Chrisyu357]] 03:21, 28 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
***** I definitely don't think we should archive all characters who are in multiple seasons. For instance, [[Kin Egami]] appeared in two seasons, but it would be ridiculous to archive what amounts to about ten lines of history. I do think we should simply take characters who have appeared (or been mentioned) a lot and look at them on a case-by-case situation. If their pages are long and they look like they'll be back for another round of episodes in an upcoming season, then we'll archive their page. If they're at the end of their run (hello, [[Isaac]]!) then their pages can remain a little long. Hence, characters like [[Monica Dawson]] and [[Elle Bishop]] really don't need to be archived. In fact, I think their pages should be restored and the archives deleted. All it amounts to is an extra click for people who want to read about that character. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 04:11, 28 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
******We all know Heroes has graphic novels, and writing character histories in chronological order would make this a richer wiki. We're wasting that opportunity by not even referencing the GN events in some of the character season histories. Also, we don't have to archive EVERYONE'S histories, only the main character's histories. [[Kin]]'s Season One and Season Two histories would just go on the article.--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 23:31, 28 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
******* I don't think we're talking about the same thing. I was talking about taking the character histories and putting them (or not putting them) on a separate page at the end of the season. I think you're talking about including graphic novels in those summaries, and about making the summaries chronological. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 23:35, 28 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
*I edited [[Kin]]'s page to look like [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=Kin_Egami&oldid=198995 this] (I reverted it immediately). Does that look sloppy or ridiculous to you? We can make it so that only the characters that have been in [[Portal:Main Characters]] and/or have been in more than one season have archived histories. Also, making the summaries chronological wouldn't be a bad idea. Imagine how awesome [[Adam]]'s page would look like :).--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 23:41, 28 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
** It seems pointless to me. Why generalize the season instead of being specific with the episode? And as awesome as Adam's page would be, imaging how confusing Hiro's page would be--do we start with the 1671 stuff, or do we start with him learning of his abilities in October 2006? And think about how screwed up pages like Gael's would be, where he dies around March 20, 2007, and then hires Donna shortly thereafter. Hmm... And what about those events that are in an unspecified future or an unspecified time in the past? Good luck trying to sort those out! :) No, I definitely don't think organizing events in chronological order is a good idea. I think it opens us up for a ton of speculation and confusingly written articles, not to mention the 200+ articles that would have to be reformatted (and that's if we only do the character articles and not the items, places, locations, etc.) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:20, 29 September 2008 (EDT) |
|||
** This discussion sounds familiar to me. I know the question of why we order the information by episode/graphic novel has come up a few times before and ordering the events chronologically cause the problems Ryan mentioned plus makes it more difficult for those who may not be up to date on the episodes (like people in other countries) to sort through the information they're supposed to know already.

Heroes Reborn
I changed the very old "Next Graphic Novel" section to direct to Heroes Reborn. No spoilers, just a point to the new page. I figure that it should be a bit more prominent than it is. Also, I figure that's what people are looking for when they come to the site. Any objections? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 00:21, 20 April 2014 (EDT)
Language Bar
I combined the languagebar with the mediabar since the language bar was looking kind of skimpy. I changed the name to the all-encompassing "Sites Related to Heroes Wiki". If it's an issue, let me know and I can revert everything. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 16:57, 8 April 2015 (EDT)
