My computer (and probably a few others') do not support .ogg format. Would you mind reuploading [[Image:Powers peter matt.ogg]]. [[User:Shoyru1177|Shoyru1177]] 18:51, 21 June 2008 (EDT) |
|||
* Unfortunately, .OGG is the only audio format supported by MediaWiki for uploads by default, in part because it's free and open source. Codecs like MP3 are actually proprietary and licensed and thus cost money.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT) |

So my computer crashed last weekend. I know, sob sob, it's okay. But the good news is I have all new, um, everything. I'm loving Firefox 2.0 (yea spell check!) Two quick questions, though. First, I'm not able to use the alt functions now (for instance, I can't patrol using alt-p, or upload using alt-u). Any way to turn this on, or any remedies of which you know? Second, I somehow lost my picture editing program, and can't remember what it was. Is there a good free one (yes, I'm a cheapo) I can download? Thanks! — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 21:26, 1 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
*I hope you used the Firefox link at the bottom of the wiki, Ryan. :) As for photo editing, if you want something simple try Picassa. There's a link to that at the bottom of the page, too. :) If you want more power, I like [http://www.gimp.org/windows/ the GIMP]. Free, open-source... and has a Windows version for you people still stuck on Windows. :) ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 21:48, 1 March 2007 (EST)) |

*I dunno if that was a typo or not, but all of the alt functions show up as Alt+Shift+(Letter) on mine, not Alt+(Letter).--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 00:14, 2 March 2007 (EST) |

**Actually, it wasn't a typo. On my old Firefox, it was just alt+letter. Including shift works like a charm. Cheers! — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 00:21, 2 March 2007 (EST) |

Sorry about that (adding the two non-Preview Parasite clips. I hate this Canada-early thing....) I'm glad you brought it to my attention though....I'll just have to avoid all-things-Heroes until later tonight. At least those two clips weren't too 'spoilery'. <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 03/5/2007 16:30 (EST)</small> |

**Yes, quite an interesting suprise in that entire scene....nothing humongous, but quite interesting.

== Google == |
|||
* Hey, if you do a Google search for Heroes from http://google.com, does Heroes Wiki show up at the bottom of the first page for you? It's showing up there for me at the moment (placement is usually pretty fickle)... I'm excited to see it hit the top results finally. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 01:55, 6 March 2007 (EST)) |

|||
== Ryan Smith == |
|||
Any idea who [http://imdb.com/name/nm1270217/ Ryan Smith] is? IMDb lists him as playing a deputy (I'm assuming at the [[Burnt Toast Diner]]) in ''[[Six Months Ago]]'' and ''[[Homecoming]]''. He was also in ''[[Las Vegas (TV series)|Las Vegas]]'', which is nice. — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 17:15, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
* I think he's one of the ones we couldn't really identify. He must be one of the ones who speaks in ''[[Homecoming]]'' as they arrest Peter, since he's credited, but I'm not sure which. Incidentally, my best friend when I was a kid had a younger brother called "Ryan Smith". Probably not the same guy, I'm guessing--but y'know, "Smith" is such an uncommon name, to say nothing of "Ryan". Only weirdos name their kids ... ah ... <small>Ryan</small>.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 17:19, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
**I knew a guy named Ryan Smith in elementary school. (Again, probably not the same guy.) However, were sworn enemies, precisely ''because'' we had the same first name. Kids... — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 17:22, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
***OK, now that his IMDb has pictures, he's easier to locate. He's the first one on the scene when Peter's arrested in Homecoming (picture coming). Haven't seen him in Six Months Ago; I'm presuming he's at the diner, since the only other Midland-Odessa scenes are at the Bennet home.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 17:24, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
****That's kinda what I was thinking, since there's not too many common places in those two eps. Although, IMDb has been known to be wrong. ([[James Kyson Lee]] is credited for 19 ''Heroes'' episodes, and [[Santiago Cabrera]] is credited with only 3. Go figure.) — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 17:28, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
*****Actually, I think it's just because Peter's arrest appears again at the end of 6MA. It's shot from a slightly different angle, and our boy Ryan speaks again, so I guess he would need a credit, even though it's the same scene.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 17:31, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
****** Weird. He was also credited as the "Montecito Deputy" in <s>some crap show</s> ''Standoff''. Looking at the episode, it appears to be a bank, not a casino. But I guess this R.S. likes to get his deputy on. — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 17:38, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
******* He has a case of copface.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 17:41, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
******** Hmm, "copface" sounds so ... dirty. — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 17:47, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
******* While we're on the subject, are there any other overlooked trivial characters we can add?--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 17:44, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
******** Well, there's [[Heroes Wiki talk:Community Portal#Web Episodes — Nice, clear credits at last!|these]]. — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 17:47, 10 March 2007 (EST) |

== Parking lot == |
|||
Aw, shiz ... I just got done linking the stupid parking lot. It's definitely a convenience store where they stop, but I mistook some newspaper kiosks for gas pumps when I was looking at [[:Image:Primm parking lot gustavson.jpg|this pic]] as a thumb. It's not a gas station, is it? — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 18:13, 10 March 2007 (EST) |
|||
* Nope. Oddly enough, I had named [[:Image:Primm parking lot hope ando.jpg|this pic]] "Primm gas station hope ando.jpg" when I capped it, thinking the same thing, and then realized that Steve's outside a liquor store and a Greyhound station.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:15, 10 March 2007 (EST) |

==Linderman's power== |
|||
*Thanks for the edit. My only problem is the fact that he does have a power. It's not just a theory, but what power he possesses is anyone's guess. I understand where you're coming from, though. The edit can wait until April 23 when we finally find out what the ability is. I can't wait! ([[User:Culpable|Culpable]] 19:11, 15 March 2007 (EDT)) |
|||
:I think it's more about the fact that it's considered as [[Spoiler:.07%|spoiler]] to know(/presume?) that [[Mr. Linderman]] have a power. For the moment, regular visitors that only have watched the last episode ([[Parasite]]), it's still a theorie so it shouldn't appear on character's main page! Well, that's just my thought, I might be wrong! --[[User:FrenchFlo|<span style="color:black; font-weight:bold;">FrenchFlo</span>]][[User talk:FrenchFlo|<span style="color:grey; font-size: 8pt; font-weight:bold;">(talk)</span>]][[Special:Contributions/FrenchFlo|<span style="color:grey; font-size: 8pt; font-weight:bold;">(contribs)</span>]] 19:19, 15 March 2007 (EDT) |
|||
::No, you're absolutely correct. We have a pretty tight policy against putting unaired information on main pages. That's what spoilers are for. Beside the fact that the clip from aintitcoolnews isn't exactly confirming much of anything, since Linderman is seen demonstrating a power (and McDowell telling ''EW'' that his character has a power is convincing, but hardly canon), nothing has actually aired yet. Theory or no, it doesn't belong on the page until April. — [[User:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>RyanGibsonStewart</font>]] ([[User talk:Ryangibsonstewart|<font color=#0147FA>talk</font>]]) 19:36, 15 March 2007 (EDT) |

So for the map (and other pages), I've noticed that some have links for a character/place/item once, and all occurrences afterwards do not have a link.

You needed to add a table around the entries, and do one call of Template:gueststarsnavcell per line for it to work properly.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 01:52, 18 September 2008 (EDT) |

If you need to undo multiple moves, just work backwards from the most recent to the oldest. Cutting-and-pasting the article contents instead wipes the edit history, which can be valuable.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:38, 26 March 2007 (EDT) |

**Your fix worked, but not in the way I wanted it to. It will fix the pictures, but not the link. I don't know what to fix, so I started down the route of just manually making templates. However, if there's a way to have the link for the second page of season 2 to link to Portal:Guest Cast 2/Season Two or if the season was one, Portal:Guest Cast 2/Season One, then I wouldn't have to manually fix it. The template works like a charm with the season aspect, but it doesn't change the link. That's the problem, and if that's fixed, that would be a great help.--{{User:Baldbobbo/sig}} 02:29, 18 September 2008 (EDT) |

*** Right, for the Season One Guest Stars archive, we made a new template instead of using Template:gueststarsnavcell. That template isn't set up to do the archive links, so making a new template was the way to go. I'll look at making a new template so we can consider whether or not to swap out the manual ones.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 11:11, 18 September 2008 (EDT) |

Grrrr! I know that's stupid but I can't stand the [[Special:Unusedimages]] page. There is picture from November 2k6 we won't ever use. I want to delete theeeeeeeeeeeeeem! But I can't ! :( I know that keeping them is not a problem but I don't see why we should and as a perfectionnist, I'm pretty anoyed by this page! Can't we just delete files we won't use ? -- [[User:FrenchFlo|'''FrenchFlo''']] [[User talk:FrenchFlo|<span style="font-size:8pt">(talk)</span>]] <span style="border: 1px solid black"><span style="background-color:blue"> </span><span style="background-color:white"> </span><span style="background-color:red"> </span></span> 17:50, 28 March 2007 (EDT) |

* I think we can make a concerted effort to use as many of them as possible, if there's an appropriate page. We can also check and make sure none of them are duplicates (or near duplicates) which can be deleted. If any are just plain bad, we can probably delete those, too. But I'm afraid we're probably stuck with a bunch of them just floating around unused. If there are any which are particularly useless, go ahead and slap <nowiki>{{afd}}</nowiki> on them and see what people say. It's worth a shot, even though there's really no ''reason'' to delete them. That said, I tend to agree with you: I'd rather have the page clean, too, but I get over it by just not going to it very often.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:13, 28 March 2007 (EDT) |

All [[:Category:Behind_the_Scenes_Images|the BTS (Behind the Scenes) files]] are in the [[Special:Unusedimages]].

* [[User:Heroe|Heroe]] uploaded most of them. I'm not sure if he has plans for them, but it's worth waiting to see what he does with them. Personally, I don't see much value in a "behind the scenes" image page, and the copyright lawyer in me really dislikes the thought of image-only pages. They could be used to illustrate various articles in [[:Category:Production]] and the like, though ... again, unless [[User:Heroe|Heroe]] has some other plan for them in mind.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 18:13, 28 March 2007 (EDT) |

==Gitelman/Gittelman== |
|||
There's an argument to be made that "Gittelman" is correct; however, a caption on NBC.com is about the worst evidence you can provide. They screw up so frequently that the fact that they spell it with two T's makes me more convinced it's spelled with one. Among their errors to date, they've confused D.L. with the Haitian and spelled Niki with two K's. They're about as far from a reliable source as you can get, and definitely not a canon source.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 23:28, 29 March 2007 (EDT) |

* Well they spell Gabriel Gray with an A instead of an E does that mean their wrong? They corrected Deveaux and I don't recall seeing them having mixed DL with SED are you sure your not mixing it with a fan posting? also they spelled Bennett with a double T so which cannon are you following?<br>'''<span style="color:#FF0000">~ ~ ~ ~ [[User talk:Red|Red]] =</SPAN> 15:09, 30 March 2007 (EDT) |

** The only canon source is a broadcast episode or the graphic novel, period. A caption for the end of ''Hiros'' said "D.L. Hawkins -- Mr. Bennet's cleaner". It was rather famously mocked, and yes, I saw it myself. "Gray" ''is'' spelled with an "A" on-screen (see the window of Gray and Sons). "Bennet" has been spelled with a second "T" exactly once--in the closing credits for Lyle's name. Since the credits are not the episodes, the episodes (which have always spelled it with one T). While we're at it, "canon" is spelled with two n's, not three. A "cannon" is a big gun. A "canon" is a body of work which is formally recognized. Also, comments go at the bottom of talk pages, not the top.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 15:28, 30 March 2007 (EDT) |

*** If your Following the Graphic Novel, then GiTTleman is the Right Answer; since it has been USED/Spelled more than once in the Novels in that manner than a Single T.

**** You don't have to be immature about it. Hardvice is an administrator to the site, and his job is to ensure quality standards. The quality standard set for this site is to site canon from aired episodes. If you have a problem with it (or cannot express yourself in a mature manner), go to another site. We're trying our best to provide a service, and you're only making it difficult for others by carrying on this attitude.--[[User:Baldbobbo|Bob]] 16:52, 30 March 2007 (EDT) |

Matt feedback loop file
My computer (and probably a few others') do not support .ogg format. Would you mind reuploading File:Powers peter matt.ogg. Shoyru1177 18:51, 21 June 2008 (EDT)
- Unfortunately, .OGG is the only audio format supported by MediaWiki for uploads by default, in part because it's free and open source. Codecs like MP3 are actually proprietary and licensed and thus cost money.--Hardvice (talk) 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
Intuitive aptitude
I guess NBC liked your suggestion. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 17:50, 7 February 2008 (EST)
- Looks like it! BTW, I should be back full-time on Monday (project is wrapping up) -- anything major I've missed in the last two weeks?--Hardvice (talk) 17:51, 7 February 2008 (EST)
- The server crashed and I single-handedly recreated the entire site... :) Nothing major, just a few fun graphic novels. Evolutions has been quite slow lately. Glad to see you back. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 17:54, 7 February 2008 (EST)
- Please... as if I don't keep backups. :) As for the intuitive aptitude, that's really neat. I find it amusing when I see people call it that even on Wikipedia when I believe it was a term Hardvice coined right here. (Admin 20:49, 7 February 2008 (EST))
- The proof is in the pudding. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:08, 7 February 2008 (EST)

Category:Characters autocat

Gun identification
Hey Hardvice. Would you mind calling upon the awesome gun IDing skills of your partner to tell what kind of the Bennets' gun is? Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:00, 1 June 2008 (EDT)
- I really can't tell from the pictures we have.--Hardvice (talk) 11:42, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
- I'm not an expert in firearms, but there's an image [1] on Wikipedia that closely resembles the Bennet's gun. Here's a black version of it: [2] Chrisyu357 14:04, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
- I'm not an expert either, but the grip in this image doesn't match (the Taurus 605 model's grip is not a complete arc like the Bennets' gun). The barrel of the 605 looks too long and it doesn't match the grip of Bennets' gun. I think it's something like the Taurus 85 Ultra Light, but with a wooden grip. Does that look right, Hardvice? Are there other manufacturers that you know of that have a similar make?--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:16, 22 June 2008 (EDT)
