But do you know if an Australian TV network is broadcasting [[Heroes]]? It was previously on channel Seven but I am not sure whether or not they are showing the latest season. They have had a habit of putting Heroes on later and later as the season progresses and I am unsure whether they will even bother this season.--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 23:34, 1 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
*Wow, someone in the same boat as me! As far as I know, Seven still own the rights to the show, but will probably air Volume Four, and, by that stage, possibly Five, in the ratings off-season in December-January. If you weren't aware, Heroes hasn't exactly set the ratings on fire in Australia. However, I am hoping they make a Ten HD-style move, and air it on 7HD like Ten have done will ''Smallville'' and ''Battlestar Galactica''. -- {{User:Tristan0709/Signature}} 00:02, 2 February 2009 (EST) |

** Yeah I know Heroes hasn't been a success in Australia, but from what I gather neither has Lost and that looks to still continue. Hopefully it will be aired, otherwise I can just watch it online.--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 05:40, 2 February 2009 (EST) |

== Refrences == |

Before I went and made up another ability, I wanted to get your thoughts on the subject. I was thinking about making "Ability mimicry" and having the description be: The ability to temporarily exhibit the ability of another evolved human after physical contact. It seems that he was no longer able to use the strength he picked up from Mohinder after he touched Tracy and acquired her ability of Freezing. Let me know what you think. |
|||
--[[User:Bentonyang|Bentonyang]] 22:23, 2 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I think you're absolutely right, he wasn't able to use Mohinder's strength. It was almost as if he was only able to hold on to one ability at a time. Interesting, too, that Nathan asked him what he was able to do these days, and Peter replied, "What was the last thing you saw me do?" I think that's the essence of his ability now. I don't think that's really been confirmed yet, though, so I'm not sure I would add a new ability page yet. I would get others' opinions on the matter. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:27, 2 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** That's a great observation, Bentonyang. But Ryan, I'm confused about how we're supposed to list his abilities now... how do you suggest we go about doing that? <small>'''Sincerely, Thrashmeister [ [[User:Thrashmeister|U]] | [[User_talk:Thrashmeister|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Thrashmeister|C]] ]'''</small> 22:30, 2 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
*** I'm confused, too. I don't have a suggestion that I feel strongly about. Let's get some discussion going on a talk page... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:32, 2 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** I figured at first that he had the same ability he had before and that they just added an effect to it. However the fact that they added an effect, coupled with his touching Mohinder (and Tracy) first, plus his comment to Nathan... and finally PLUS their realization that Peter becomes too powerful too easily probably convinced them to alter his ability slightly now that he got it back. It could also explain why he was so worried about getting blown out of the plane rather than just flying back inside. So at this point I think you're right and his ability is now different... which I'm very glad to see. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 22:36, 2 February 2009 (EST)) |
|||
*** Agree, Admin. I'm very happy that it's different--yet it still maintains the essence of his old ability, which was absorbing the abilities of others. Only now, he seems to absorb them one at a time....If only we had a name for it. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:39, 2 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
**** Isn't "ability mimicry" good enough? I mean, empathy doesn't appear to be required at the moment so I don't think that has to be part of the name. The only trouble is that it might be "ability absorption" (what Arthur had), but we won't know until at least next week when we find out if the other people Peter touched on the plane still have their abilities...--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 23:21, 2 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
***** That works for me. It doesn't seem to be Arthur's ability, though--Peter could only have one ability at a time, where Arthur could have multiple. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:14, 3 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
****** I wouldn't go with ability mimicry, this doesn't suggest that Peter can only take on one ability at a time (it sort of suggest other-wise), I think we should wait until next episode to find out. ---- '''Bring on the [[User:Irony|Irony]]''' 11:31, 4 February 2009 (EST) |

Hey Ryan...does season 3 have 26 episodes and is this news? I thought it was supposed to be 24/25? Also, any schedule update, this site shows 26 episodes with the season ending in April end!? [http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=7938 Futon Critic] [[User:The ODI|The ODI]] 14:10, 3 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* There are only 25, as far as I know. In fact, [[Greg Beeman]] said there were 25 in [http://gregbeeman.blogspot.com/2009/02/beemans-blog-season-3-episode-14.html last night's blog entry] (13 in the first volume, and 12 in the second). Where are you seeing 26 episodes listed on Heroes Wiki? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:47, 3 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** Oops I guess how I wrote my post, made it sound like the info was listed here on Heroes Wiki, but I actually posted a link to Futon Critic above where it is listed. I sent the info to Andy and he said that FC is a reliable source and gets press releases a day or two early. So perhaps a small typo and will go with Beeman says for now... :) [[User:The ODI|The ODI]] 17:31, 3 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
*** Oh, didn't see the link. Could be 25. I've always trusted Futon Critic in the past, but it's also possible they make mistakes like everyone else. If it's a true thing, I'm sure NBC will promote it, so we'll catch word of it in a day or two if it's authentic. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:38, 3 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
**** Just got official confirmation direct from Gary Mednick at NBC that it IS 25 episodes with the finale on April 27th. Sucks it will end early, but at least we know now. [[User:The ODI|The ODI]] 14:46, 4 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
***** OMG! It will end so early??? I'm happy because there won't be any breaks between the episodes but then we'll have to wait 5 months for the next volume!--[[User:Alen76|Alen76]] 15:06, 15 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
****** On the upside, it will give a big chunk of time for the graphic novels to really develop a good storyline. Remember how compelling the evsdropr stuff was last year? Or the backstories for Claude, Candice, and the Haitian the year before that? I really enjoy the summer graphic novels, and I'm especially looking forward to them this year. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:08, 15 February 2009 (EST) |

I noticed in Enigma when Dahlia & 2014 Cassie interact that Cassie isn't wearing the Renautas smart glasses. Also in Enigma during the last meeting between Dahlia & 2014 Cassie, Dahlia doesn't have ask Cassie to do anything about the lasers or the platform she can't jump to because it is to high. |

Hey Ryan. First off, I notice that the navbar at the top of your talk page needs updating to include your Archive 23 (January 2009). Second, if it's not too much work, could you please delete all the pages/templates inside my User:Radicell/Webisodes project? It's a project I've abandoned, so I don't need those pages/templates anymore. Thirdly, I've notice another example of the naming issue I talked about last time. This time, I think [[Marie]] should be moved to Marie (Moonlight Serenade), so that the Marie page can be a redirect to [[Marie (disambig)]]. I don't think, in this case, that either Marie should be placed above the other. What do you think? --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 05:50, 5 February 2009 (EST) |

* Thanks for the reminder. I'll delete the pages if you take care of any red links it might create. I don't mind what we do with Marie's page--if you want to move it, feel free. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 10:46, 5 February 2009 (EST) |

Ryan, do you know if there is a program that would allow me to create a character connection chart? Something like [http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Lostconnections.gif this] and [http://lostpedia.wikia.com/wiki/Image:Lostconnectionsweb.jpg this]? Something like they have at the Marvel website ([http://marvel.com/universe3zx/utility/network.htm?character_id=1728 like this]). Since Heroes has so many characters and we already have a connections page, I thought it'd be interesting to have something like that.

* Sorry, I don't know of anything specific that could make that kind of a chart. Actually, the two from Lostpedia look like they're just made with an image editor like Gimp.

Hey guy...correct me if im wrong...but isn't Hiro and Ando's lair Building 26?....i mean, i'm pretty sure that was the number on the door or the fire house when Hiro opened the door? and if so, is it cool if i put that on the Spoiler Building 26 page--[[User:Anthony Gooch|Anthony Gooch]] 12:28, 6 February 2009 (EST) |

**ok, and while i have your attention, i have a question/theory about sylar...do you think in some kinda weird freaky mojo way his ability has been empathic mimicry, we saw him connect on a 'sad' level with elle and it just that on some deep level he connected with people 'in pain' (his victims) and was able to acquire their power all along--[[User:Anthony Gooch|Anthony Gooch]] 12:01, 12 February 2009 (EST) |

*** I don't think Sylar has the same ability as Peter originally had. Similar, but not the same. I think he learned how to absorb Elle's power through being an empathetic person, but I don't think he had the same ability as Peter. I believe this was addressed by [[Joe Pokaski]] and [[Aron Coleite]] in a Behind the Eclipse, but I don't remember which one. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 12:53, 12 February 2009 (EST) |

== Vengeance == |

Hey, just wondering about the Issues portal. Who were the Vengeances centered around? We have it as "El Vengador" who technically isn't a person....Is there someone else that we can put on that? {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 16:41, 26 February 2016 (EST) |
|||
Ryan, could you go through [http://heroeswiki.com/Special:Contributions/FlamingBiscuits his contributions]? Every now and then some of his contributions constitute vandalism and possible revert war. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 15:52, 6 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I think keeping it as El Vengador is fine, since it was about both Oscar and his grandfather, as well as the idea of being El Vengador. It reminds me of the Evs Dropper comics in that way, in that Evs wasn't a single person either. But to answer your question, the comics are all told from Oscar's perspective. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:32, 26 February 2016 (EST) |
|||
* I'll take a look. Thanks for the heads up. By the way, if you take issue with an edit or multiple edits from contributors, feel free to make comments on their talk pages. It helps if discipline needs to be taken--that way they're not hearing it from me for the first time, and we cover ourselves by warning people of their behavior within a reasonable amount of time. When doing so, keep in mind Wikipedia's excellent principle of [[Wikipedia:WP:AGF|assuming good faith]], realizing that edits that may look like vandalism may not be as intentional as they seem. When correcting an editor for the first time, it's okay to be kind and polite yet firm and direct. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:04, 6 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** Yeah, I've had trouble with polite yet firm in the past, I'm sick of people accusing me of pursuing them and checking if I'm a sypop before they start disrespecting me. Long story short, AGF hardly ever works for me. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 17:29, 6 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
*** It's not an easy principle to follow. Believe me, I know! However, it's still an integral part of wiki-ing. Take a look at [[Wikipedia:WP:BITE|this essay]]--it might help put things into perspective a bit. If people disrespect you, that's one thing--let me know if anybody is disrespectful to you, and I will take care of it from the administrator's level. However, we should never begin a "confrontational" discussion (like calling somebody on their silly edits) by being rude ourselves. I'm not pointing that to you at all--I can't think of any times you have been rude. I'm just saying that as a general guideline for anybody reading this. And you're right, AGF very often doesn't work. Many times, people vandalize the site, and they do it intentionally. However, it would be a shame to automatically ban everybody from the site who has ever made an edit that's silly. Some of our very good editors (and even a patroller or two) began with a rough start and by making silly and/or antagonistic edits. They turned themselves around and got their acts together, thank goodness. If we hadn't exercised AGF, they wouldn't be here. Now, that's not the case with everybody, of course. But we don't want to throw out the baby with the bathwater, of course. Long story short, I know it's not always easy to be patient, but it's still necessary. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:43, 6 February 2009 (EST) |

Hey, so there is a lot still to do here for Heroes Reborn and I was wondering if you, me, and maybe some others would like to devote the next couple of weeks to getting it all up to speed. So I'm suggesting this week we really go hard on getting the episode pages done. Summaries, Plots, MQs, etc. You think we can encourage others to help us? |
|||
Hey, I'm a newbie in editing so I just wanted to ask the experienced ones if they could make a new article [http://heroeswiki.com/Portal:Accidents_and_Disasters here] about the plane crash in the last episode. Thanks!--[[User:Alen76|Alen76]] 16:16, 7 February 2009 (EST) |

I think that Peter's Ability's name should change to Empathic Mimic Touch. The ability to copy another evoled humans ability one at a time through physical contact. [[User:Badluck2772|Badluck2772]] 12:52, 8 February 2009 |

|||
* Thanks for the suggestion, Badluck. I actually prefer just calling the ability "[[Peter's ability]]" for now since the writers and producers don't have a name for it yet. But that's just my opinion. I don't have the authority to just go ahead and change a name--and I wouldn't even if I did have that authority. That's a decision for the community as a whole to make. It can be discussed at [[Talk:Peter's ability]]. Thanks! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:22, 8 February 2009 (EST) |

== Season Summary == |

Hey, I realize this is kind of forward looking, but I was updating the Season History templates in case we get another installment and need to do a Reborn portion. I am having difficulties with three things: |
|||
Shouldn't we add Flight 195 crash to the events box?--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 14:47, 8 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
1) When I type "Noah Bennet/Heroes Reborn" it does not take me to the button that says "New season summary page" |
|||
* Yes, I was just thinking that :) --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 14:47, 8 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
2) If I were to put it on the original page as <nowiki>{{season summary|season=Reborn}}</nowiki>, then the link appears as <nowiki>[[Noah Bennet/Season Reborn|Noah Bennet: Season Reborn History]]</nowiki> |
|||
** Yeah, I haven't gotten to it yet. Feel free to do that if you'd like. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:48, 8 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
3) On the top of the Season archive footer template, it will normally link to the previous season history if their is one and I can't seem to work it with the Reborn part |
|||
*** Already done :) --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 14:49, 8 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
Can you help me with these couple things? Thanks, {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 15:50, 10 March 2016 (EST) |
|||
****Hey I did the box you did the portal--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 14:54, 8 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* The "new season summary page" is set up to appear when the title "/Season" appears in the subpagename. I can make a workaround for the few individual pages. I don't think we need to do any major structural changes since this really only affects Noah and maybe a handful of other characters. If there's another iteration of ''Heroes'', then we can cross that bridge later. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 23:44, 10 March 2016 (EST) |
|||
** Actually, I think the biggest issue is that there was a misspelling on the archive page. It said "Rebron" instead of Reborn" so I don't think it was pulling the info correctly... Also, on Noah's main page, I didn't use the template, I just wrote the info, which works... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:13, 11 March 2016 (EST) |
|||
*** Oh, okay. I wasn't meaning that we do it now. It was mainly just to smooth the bridges later incase we needed to. It shows the category at the bottom of Noah Bennet/Heroes Reborn ''Category:Season Reborn Histories''. I have tried to work around it, but I don't quite understand the if exist or page name templates and how I can utilize that to work. {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 07:48, 11 March 2016 (EST) |
|||
**** The "if exist" command just means that if the page exists on the wiki, do whatever it says to do. So something like <tt><nowiki>{{#ifexist: Peter Petrelli | [[Peter Petrelli]] | Peter Petrelli }}</nowiki></tt> means that if there is a page called "Peter Petrelli" on the wiki, link it. If not, don't link it. That command would show up as {{#ifexist: Peter Petrelli | [[Peter Petrelli]] | Peter Petrelli }}. Something like <tt><nowiki>{{#ifexist: Foo | [[Foo]] | Foo }}</nowiki></tt> would show up as just {{#ifexist: Foo | [[Foo]] | Foo }}. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:05, 11 March 2016 (EST) |
|||
**** I fixed the category issue. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:23, 11 March 2016 (EST) |
|||
*** Is there a way for me to edit the MediaWiki:Newarticletext page to have the New Season Summary page button appear if it says ''Heroes Reborn''? {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 08:22, 11 March 2016 (EST) |

== Making this Wiki Pretty Again == |
|||
== Hey == |
|||
Hey, |
|||
I am adding relevant theories that have not been disproven to the Theory:Drug dealer page, but Intuitive Empath continues to delete them, stating he will not let another [[Mr Muggles]] happen. I don't understand, the theories I posted are possible and until otherwise should be allowed to rest on the theory page. Afterall they are just theories, they are possible and are doing no harm than allowing speculation on him.--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 02:06, 9 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Thanks for letting me know. Most of the theories that are there right now seem valid. Far-fetched, but valid. However, this should be discussed at [[Theory talk:Drug dealer]] before being brought to an administrator's attention. I see [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] has already posted his comments there. You might want to join the discussion on that page where it's fair for all to discuss. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 08:02, 9 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
So with Heroes Reborn ending, we have a lot of stubs out there and frankly most of the new articles are incomplete (including episode pages). Therefore, I am hoping to inspire you and others to do this challenge with me. On my [[User:Iheartheroes|userpage]], I have gone to all of the stubbed pages and separated them out by episode. Therefore, we can rewatch an episode and pay extra attention to these things that have stubs. So, my challenge is to follow this schedule to get everything listed under each category done. Hopefully if we all work together and can narrow down where we can help, we can finish this soon. |
|||
== Sortnames == |
|||
Schedule: |
|||
Hi, I noticed you undid my edits to the sortnames of [[Male party guest]], [[Female party guest (I)]], and [[Female party guest (II)]]. However, the reason I changed them was because of [[Portal:Matt-Related Graphic Novel Characters|here]], where the same sort of situation occurs, using "fan" instead of "Party guest". I had thought that terms that differentiate conflicting characters (Male/Female, Black-haired/Redhead, (I)/(II)), etc. were to be left out of sortnames, that's why I had changed them. So, in this case, "Male" and "Female" stays? In that case should we change [[Portal:Matt-Related Graphic Novel Characters]] too? |
|||
*Week of March 20: {{epp|501}} |
|||
* Portals are one things, categories are another. A portal's organization is a little bit looser and can cut off parts of names to suit spacing, organizing, or whatever, really. However, if you user the <code>sortname</code> variable in the [[template:character box|character box]], it sorts the article under that name in every category. So, that means [[female party guest (I)]] would be sorted under "P" in [[:Category:Characters]], [[:Category:Humans]], [[:Category:Female Characters]], and every other category on which that character is listed. The only explicit changes that really should be made is to sort a person by their last name instead of their first names in the categories. I can't think of too many other sortname changes that would need to be made. Does that make sense, or am I speaking gibberish? (I have a habit of that.) If you need me to clarify, let me know. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 15:48, 9 February 2009 (EST) |

** I guess that's enough, though I was thinking a note at the bottom would be useful to make it clear. I often skip reading that part since it is repetitive each week.

== Age appropriate == |
|||
Gots a question for you... what is the "age rating" of Heroeswiki? I was contemplating making the second part of my sig "talk dirty to me..." but didn't want to offend. |
|||
The origin of why I would be using that will be a little more understood once I get my user page finished. |
|||
So, back to the issue, would that sig be against any rules? And to match that, is my user pic against any rules? [[User:Angielynne|Angielynne]] - [[User talk:Angielynne|talk to me...]] 18:57, 11 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* There is no age limit for Heroes Wiki...but I tend to edit my own speech to be about the same level of appropriateness as ''Heroes'' itself. I don't personally have a problem with either one of the issues you're asking about. Just remember that there are young kids (tweens) who regularly frequent this site. Use your best judgment. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:45, 11 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Consider that we've seen some relatively racy video of [[Nathan]] and [[Jessica]] already in the show, so I think the "talk dirty to me" wouldn't be bad in comparison. :) ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 19:47, 11 February 2009 (EST)) |

== For Ability Replication? == |
|||
Should we be adding "replicated by" as a new part of the power infobox? It is so far, quite different from empathic mimicry and doesn't look to be going away so shouldn't it be added to inform exactly how Peter is using the stated ability?--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 06:44, 12 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I don't understand. Isn't there already a variable for <code>absorbed by</code> in the [[template:infobox power|power infobox]]? When Peter uses his new ability, he's absorbing the powers of others. Saying he replicated the powers is synonymous. I understand we're making a distinction between [[empathic mimicry]] and [[Peter's ability|Peter's new ability]], but they're both abilities that allow Peter to absorb the abilities of others. Similarly, [[intuitive aptitude]], [[power absorption]], and [[aura absorption]] allow [[Sylar]], [[Arthur]], and [[Linda]] to absorb the abilities of others. I don't see a need to make a new line in the power infobox. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 11:33, 12 February 2009 (EST) |

== Autosig question == |

Hey there RGS, I had a question about my autosig. I finally decided to make one yesterday. However, whenever I try to enter my signature using <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>, instead of putting <nowiki>{{User:Thrashmeister/Sigmeister}}</nowiki>, it just puts all of the content for my signature in <nowiki>{{User:Thrashmeister/Sigmeister}}</nowiki> on the page that I'm trying to sign. I checked my preferences, and it turns out that even though I put <nowiki>{{User:Thrashmeister/Sigmeister}}</nowiki> as my signature, it converts it to <nowiki>{{SUBST:User:Thrashmeister/Sigmeister}}</nowiki> as soon as I save my preferences. How can I make it so that my signature turns out like yours, or anyone else's autosig? Do I actually have to type out <nowiki>{{User:Thrashmeister/Sigmeister}}</nowiki> every time I want to sign? Thanks! {{User:Thrashmeister/Sigmeister}} 12:05, 13 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* You need both a sig and an autosig subpage. Have the sig be your actual sig and the autosig contain a template invocation of your sig. That should do it, as long as you point your preferences to the autosig.

*Is there any special way to add the timestap to my [[User:Psilaq Remake/sig|signature template]], or do I have to add it manually? {{User:Psilaq Remake/sig}} |

** Yeah, I think you can add it, but you need to use the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Help:Extension:ParserFunctions#.23time: time builtin].

*** I've tried doing that, and it proved more difficult than was worth it. It's best to just have your [[special:preferences|preferences]] designate your customized signature, and then use the four tildes to create the timestamp. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:27, 13 February 2009 (EST) |

* Actually, something important to note is that a majority does not inherently mean consensus. Consensus essentially means that everyone either agrees with the change or at the very least doesn't directly object to it. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 14:31, 16 February 2009 (EST)) |

** Oh, Ok, thanks --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 14:34, 16 February 2009 (EST) |

*** Don't feel like an idiot, Irony--it's better to ask than to assume. :) In addition to what Admin said, a consensus check is basically to overrule a standing policy. For instance, with [[laser emission]], we were given the word "lasers" from the graphic novel. It would have remained as that or as "Michael's ability" if there was no consensus. However, to add the word "emission", we found that there was consensus, thus it was changed. That might not be the best example, but it's what came from the top of my head.

Ryan, are there guidelines as to what can be put down as theory? How a theory should be? And I'm not talking about the formatting help when someone edits a theory page. As you saw the latest Drucker theory, I believe things are running a bit out of control, I don't feel confortable with the most absurd theories, and in this case making a direct mention to a sensitive matter, only because there is no way to be 100% it's impossible.

If someone feels it is not inappropriate, they can revert the edit and discuss it on the talk page.--{{User:Baldbobbo/sig}} 19:41, 16 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** Right. I don't frequent the theory pages very much. I know you do, IE, and I know Bob helped standardize them quite a bit awhile ago. I defer to you two when talking about them. Right now, the only guiding policy for content is that if it's viable, it's allowable. If it's impossible or disproven, it's removed. I have no problem saying that theories should pass a measure of appropriateness. That's hard to judge, so maybe we should just sort of leave it at that. That's not to say that the theory about Drucker being a pedophile is invalid, it just should maybe be worded in a way that is a little less direct. It certainly shouldn't use the names of real people who have never been convicted of the same crime--that's libel (or slander--I always get those two mixed up). But we're talking about some policy shifts here. This really should be taken to the [[Heroes Wiki talk:community portal|community portal]]. I support what I'm hearing here, though. In the end, [[Help:Theories]] might need to be updated. Let me know what else you need. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:50, 16 February 2009 (EST) |

Hmm, I wonder... :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 07:55, 17 February 2009 (EST) |

** That could be it. The character is named simply 'Volts', which I use for my 9th Wonders username and I guess it's what I put on the bug e-mails. Should 'Volts' be a disambig?--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 08:14, 17 February 2009 (EST) |

Too bad about the image reverting...I think Pierre only reverted it once, then somebody else reverted it again. (They might still be smarting about all the reverts you did to [[:Image:Powers peter flight.jpg]].)

I was looking through the wanted pages and noticed alot of the old spoilers are making red links that I cannot fix.

Just thought I would tell you. --{{User:Laughingdevilboy/signature}} 12:04, 17 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Thanks, let me look into it. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:29, 17 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Simple mistake. There was an edit made to [[Template:Archivedspoiler]] to distinguish [[Building 26]] from [[Episode:Building 26]]. It was a good idea, but it caused unwanted red links. Thanks for bringing that to my attention! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:31, 17 February 2009 (EST) |

|||
*** I deleted the page because somebody (with good intentions) made it a redirect to [[DJ Doyle]]. It needs to be an article about [[:Image:Daniel Doyle.jpg|this guy]].

== FYI == |

Since you have always been very welcoming, I thought it would only be proper to let you know that I've decided to leave Heroes Wiki. I find myself spending too much time in pointless arguments/re-edits, and with me losing interest in the show, it just isn't worth it any more. Good luck, and keep up the good work, Ryan! :) --[[User:Pierre|Pierre]] 12:28, 17 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I'm very sorry to hear that, Pierre! You've always been a very strong editor with a level head, a good sense of how things work, and a good command of grammar and syntax. I was in the same boat about a year or a year and a half ago. I was spending too much time discussing things (and not getting anywhere), and not enough time doing what I prefer to do, which is to edit. Of course discussion is still the lifeblood of the wiki community, but I've found that I can scale back quite a bit. Now I try to voice my opinion once, and leave it at that. If a discussion is going nowhere, I get out. And there are simply days where I stay away from discussion pages, and really get into the heart of the show. It's about finding balance. I sure hope your leaving is not permanent, but just a temporary "break". I sure hope you come back when you're ready. But if you don't, I completely understand, and wish you the best. :) Take care! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:38, 17 February 2009 (EST) |

== How would you feel about ... == |
|||
As you may have gathered, I am a big fan of the related article pages. How would you feel about ability related article pages, with information like possesors, people who have absorbed it, appearances in shows and any other related things. I really don't mind if you're not keen, but I think it would be quite good. Thanks :) --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 14:11, 17 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I don't do too much on the related articles pages other than make sure they're standardized and correctly formatted...so I don't have too much of an opinion one way or the other. (Sorry if that's not the answer you're looking for!) However, I'm always game to share my opinion on something, but I'm having a hard time picturing the content of the page. Why don't you draw something up in a user page and let me see that. (I'm assuming this would be for some of the more widely seen abilities, like [[telekinesis]] or [[precognition]], and not so much for abilities like [[melting]] or [[bliss and horror]], right?) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:41, 17 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** No,no,no. I'm fine with that answer. I was thinking pyrokinesis and enhanced strength as everyone seems to have them, and not so much [[melting]] or [[Nerve gas emission]]. :) I'll wait a while. --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 05:16, 18 February 2009 (EST) |

How many votes have to agree with you before you can change the main image of an ability or any image for that matter? --[[User:Catalyst|Catalyst]] |
|||
* I'm not sure there's any guideline on this issue. Generally, we look for consensus on the wiki. It's kind of difficult to do that since there's no "baseline" for an image. It's either one image or another. I would say majority probably rules in that case. However, since we are a community, it would be best to discuss the merits and demerits of said image on the talk page, and hopefully people can come to an agreement. If not, well then I guess that's where you'd have to have an administrator step in. What page are you talking about? Maybe I can step in an share my opinion or add to the discussion. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:32, 17 February 2009 (EST) |

:::: I don't think there's anything wrong with Thrashmeister's behavior. Nor do I find him impersonating a researcher trying to cure cancer. He is simply doing his job as a patroller, which is in part to report anybody whose actions he finds suspicious. I applaud him. Having a sense of humor is fine, but the theory articles are really not the place for them. Theory articles are meant to be professional articles that archive legitimate theories. Jokes and humor are better left on talk pages and user pages. Milbury, you have some terrific theories. You also have some that I think you can admit are additions that are pushing a line, or are purposefully sensational and a bit silly. Let's keep the editing on the theory pages to simply archiving theories that are legit. Thanks! :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:39, 17 February 2009 (EST) |

:::: On another note, some of comments to other editors, Milbury, are quite offensive and needlessly confrontational in tone. [[User talk:Serojay#Banhammer|Here]], for instance, you seem to be targeting others.

== Archived spoilers == |
|||
Hey Ryan, thanks for reverting my changes to [[Template:archivedspoiler]], since it caused red links on pages such as [[Spoiler:Candice Willmer]]. However, I'd like to ask why that page even exists? It probably should be deleted (since apparently we didn't de-spoil it and instead kept it as an archived spoiler). I noticed on the talk pages that the consensus is to delete it, so will it be or is there still discussion going on somewhere else about this? --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 06:38, 18 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I agree, it should be deleted. Is there consensus there? I haven't checked in awhile. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:48, 18 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
Another thing, I'm wondering where you get the actor/actress information for the "New Actors and Characters" section that you post in the talk page of each new episode. Do you scribble down the names as the credits roll, or is there a site somewhere that lists each episode's credits (no matter how minor the role)? Thanks, hope you know what I mean. --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 06:38, 18 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I scribble down the names as the credits roll. Usually, IMDb serves the purpose of listing each episode's credits ([http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0813715/epcast see this page for each ''Heroes'' episode]), but IMDb is not perfect. In fact, the previous link lists [[Pramod Kumar]] as playing "Grand Father" (odd), is missing a couple of the agents, and as of Monday, it still listed [[Chad Faust]] as having appeared in ''[[Trust and Blood]]''. It's a good resource, you just have to be careful. The episode credits, though, are the best source for casting information. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:48, 18 February 2009 (EST) |

|||
* [http://www.december.com/html/spec/color.html This] is a good one I've used from time to time, even if the colors are in a bit of random order. I have two better ones bookmarked on my other computer that I'll link here after dinner. And please, there's nothing wrong with asking questions. I'm a teacher, for heaven's sake! Plus, as an administrator here, I expect a fair amount of "how do I" and "where can I find" type questions. I'm happy to answer them if and when I can. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:54, 18 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Here are some of the pages I use. [http://html-color-codes.info/ This page] lets you find the code for any color. [http://acronymsonline.com/lists/hex_color_codes.htm This is a good organized list], but it's sometimes hard to tell the difference between the colors (at least for me). However, the best page I've ever found is [http://www.2createawebsite.com/build/hex-colors.html this one]. Check it out, especially the bottom half, which creates color schemes for you and tells you which colors look good with others. Very handy. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 23:24, 18 February 2009 (EST) |

** Portraits for minor characters are the same as portraits for any other character. They belong in [[:Category:Character Portraits]]. You can assign this through [[template:image-screenshot]] like this: <tt><nowiki>{{image-screenshot|portrait=true}}</nowiki></tt>. Of course, you'll also want to add the episode category, so your fair use statement will look more like this: <tt><nowiki>{{image-screenshot|316=true|portrait=true}}</nowiki></tt>.

*** Tnx alot =D--{{User:NiveKJ13/sig1}} 18:08, 18 February 2009 (EST) |

**** On a related note, it's generally very helpful to name character portraits after the characters. It helps people find the character image, and it makes linking a ton easier. In other words, the portrait for [[Anna's grandfather]] would usually be called "Image:Anna's grandfather.jpg". It's not mandatory, but it sure helps out. :) Good job on uploading a lot of the images this round. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:10, 18 February 2009 (EST) |

Do you know why people have deleted most of the good Mr. Muggles theories? I don't see any edit summaries. [[User:Ebrown2112|Ebrown2112]] 04:15, 21 February 2009 |
|||
* No, I don't, and I don't frequent that page (or any Theory page) very often. You can click on the [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=Theory:Mr._Muggles&action=history history link for the page] and see who made the edits. They should have left an edit summary. If not, you can talk to the people responsible directly on their talk pages. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 09:06, 21 February 2009 (EST) |

==White Font (reply)== |

I rewatched the starting credits, and I do not see any difference between "The Eclipse Part One" starting credits compared to others. The font colour for the starting is still the same compared to others, and therefore I removed it. [[User:JLYK|JLYK]] 09:49, 21 February 2009 |

* Thanks for letting me know. [[:Image:3x10episodetitle.jpg|See here]]. The font is black, as opposed to [[:Image:3x09episodetitle.jpg|here]], for instance, where the font is white. In the future, if you use an edit summary (the single line field right above the "Save page" button) to tell the reason for your edit, it saves a lot of confusion and assumption. :) Thanks! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 09:53, 21 February 2009 (EST) |

When you found the hi-def cap of this drawing [[:Image:Prophetic drawing by Matt of Matt and Claire.jpg|here]], 1) where did you find it? 2) did that source also have hi-def caps of the other two drawings? (Also, do you have any good hi-def website links you use that aren't listed on the links page? I am down to only 1 current webpage that is staying current with episodes that render then hi-def, and am trying to find more resources for us, but not much luck.) <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 02/24/2009 11:19 (EST)</small> |

== Chris Zatta == |
|||
According to a PetrellibyNature post at [http://boards.9thwonders.com/index.php?showtopic=67761&hl= 9th Wonders], Chris Zatta and some of the other lower-ranking writers have been axed. Have you heard anything?--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 19:35, 26 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* No, that's the first I've heard. Isa would know, though--she's the "[[Talk:Portal:Other#Fan Liaison|official/unofficial fan liaison]]" between the fans and the writers. I'll email Chris. Thanks for the heads up, MV. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:07, 26 February 2009 (EST) |

== Should Daniel Linderman be on the Season 3 Characters template? == |
|||
Since even though the actor portrayed him, he wasn't actually in any of the episodes, save villains. He was after all simply an illusion. Shouldn't he be removed?--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 04:38, 27 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I don't think so. Maury created the illusion of Linderman. For all intents and purposes, his character appeared in each of those episodes, even if he was conjured by somebody else. We do list him on the [[list of character appearances by episode]]. Personally, I don't see a problem with attributing those appearances to his character, much like we say Usutu appeared to Matt, though he's dead. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 10:50, 27 February 2009 (EST) |

== Image extensions == |
|||
Hey, Ryan. I was just wondering is there was any special preference for image extensions? (.jpg, .png) I have been re-upping some of Arkillon's images, and i think that .png files use up more space. {{User:Psilaq Remake/sig}} 12:10, 28 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* PNG images also don't scale well and sometimes cause problems in galleries and thumbnails. The preference is for JPG images. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 13:23, 28 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
**Ok, so would it be fine for me to upload new versions of image I've re-upped over Arkillon's PNG's as .jpg's? {{User:Psilaq Remake/sig}} 14:43, 28 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
*** If they're already here as pngs, they're probably fine...unless you see them causing issues in places. Don't worry about the amount of space they take up, that's a much lesser issue. pngs are fine, they're just not ideal. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 15:41, 28 February 2009 (EST) |

== It Takes a Village == |
|||
Hi Ryan, |
|||
I'm kind of new here and trying to learn, at the same time I'm trying to perfect the wiki as much as I can. |
|||
I have a question. In the [[Graphic Novel:It Takes a Village, Part 2]], the Haitian has two friends and both of them '''speak'''. So they are two characters who appear in the novel. Why not to mention them? I thought it would be proper to mention all the characters appearing both in the episodes and in the graphic novels. |
|||
By the way, check out [[User:SacValleyDweller/Release and Arc Order]]. I'm trying to gather all of the heroes media in temporal order. |
|||
Sincerely, |
|||
--[[User:Janrodrigo|Janrodrigo]] 13:01, 28 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* I don't mind having articles about those characters, but group appearances (like the [[Tonton Macoutes]]) don't belong on appearance templates.<p>Thanks for the heads up about SVD's page. It's pretty awesome, isn't it? I had [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=User:Ryangibsonstewart/Order_of_Release&oldid=125959 a similarly themed page] a long time ago that I would use just to know when media was released. Sac has really taken his to a different level, so I made mine into a redirect to his. I believe Frank at HeroesARG references Sac's page quite regularly. Pretty cool! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 13:27, 28 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
** Yes, it is. Actually I first came up with the idea that I would like to prepare a list or a summary in order to help anyone to relive the Heroes experience from the beginning and in order, including all GNs, Webisodes and the Heroes Evolutions. Before joining the wiki I had already prepared in Microsoft Word such a list (though not thorough) without knowing there was one here :) |
|||
Anyway, I have question. I thought you might help me. I don't much about these naming conventions but I would like to know if it would be proper to name: ''The Haitian's friend (I)'', ''The Haitian's friend (II)'', ''Leader of the Tonton Macoutes' local branch'' or something; under the appearances? What would be proper as I strongly opine that every character whether minor or major should be mentioned. |
|||
By the way I would appreciate if you would answer to my [[User talk:Janrodrigo|talk page]], instead of here. |
|||
Thanks in forward, |
|||
Friendly, |
|||
--[[User:Janrodrigo|Janrodrigo]] 16:24, 28 February 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Those names sound fine, though I would make the title of the Tonton Macoutes guy a bit simpler. "Tonton Macoutes leader" sounds fine to me. I know he's probably not the leader of the entire TM, but he's still a leader within the TM, so it's fine. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:54, 28 February 2009 (EST) |

==A Spoiler-ish matter== |
|||
''NOTE: I have refrained from using spoilers in this message.'' |
|||
Hi! I'm pretty much new here but have been a follower of the site for some time. I've seen on several occasions now that the ad at the top of the page for Sprint, which is giving away a spoiler for 3x18. I myself like the odd spoiler here and there, but seeing as it's on every page (even those not with the Spoiler: prefix) I thought that kind of contradicts the spoiler policy. In the interest of those not wanting to be spoiler-ed I wondered if there's anything that could be done. I'd hate to see the site get avoided for fear of giving away spoilers! Thanks, [[User:SylarMonroe|SylarMonroe]] 14:23, 1 March 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Thanks for the heads up. I've seen it too, but I didn't think it was anything too big to worry about. In the end, there's not much we can do change the ads--part of our deal with [[NBC]] is that an ad banner play at the top of every page. I'm pretty sure [[User:Admin|Admin]] watches my talk page. If he deems it too spoilery, he'll contact NBC and have them change it. Thanks so much, SylarMonroe! :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:26, 1 March 2009 (EST) |

== So...theories == |
|||
I come to you with a proposition, Ryan. Let's rewind a few years ago. Lost is about to air its season three finale. A fan comes into Lostpedia and posts a synopsis for the episode in the spoiler section. Spoilers get completely eradicated from Lostpedia. Back to the here and now, the theories on Heroes Wiki get stupider by the minute. Every time someone dies on the show, there's a "____ isn't dead" theory. Things like waffles, Mr. Muggles, Barbara, Harry Fletcher, etc. are unacceptable and must be put to an end...now. I don't even recall seeing a solid or plausible theory on this site. My proposition: to put an end to this dumb-founded dipshittery we see every day on the theory pages, the theories have to go. They're just a [[catalyst]] for silliness and sometimes vandalism, things that are not to be tolerated on this wiki any longer. Think about it.--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 20:47, 1 March 2009 (EST) |
|||
* Fair warning: This is a long post. Like ''War and Peace'' long. Skip to the last paragraph if you don't want my to read my rambling stream of consciousness. :)<p>One thing I never want to do is to go the route Lostpedia took and completely eliminate spoilers and theories from the entire site, just in an effort to curb such content. I quote from Lostpedia's [[Lostpedia:Main Page|front page]] (their front page!): "Spoilers are no longer permitted on the wiki. Any spoilers on the wiki regarding Seasons 5 and 6 will result in an instant and permanent ban." Wow. That would scare the bejeezus out of me as a newcomer so much that I wouldn't create an account. As a casual editor over there, I'm scared that I might accidentally post something that doesn't belong, and then get banned permanently with no individualized warning. And I'm saying that as a fairly intelligent man in my 30s. Then I think of all the younger people (and I mean teenagers and such) who might miss that warning, or might not understand, or might forget, or whatever, and boom you have people being banned left and right ([http://lostpedia.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=block&user=&page=&year=&month=-1 more than 20 this week!]). That's very much ''not'' the kind of community we're trying to build here.<p>Now I know very well how stupid some (okay, ''most'') of the theories are here and how people try to sneak spoilers in on nonspoiler pages. Part of the payment for building a community is that we expect everybody to be on different learning curves, and we spend a lot of time giving individualized instruction to spare those who might actually be trying their best. Maybe [[User:Admin|Admin]] has reasons of his own, but mine go right back to my teaching. There's no way I'll ever be able to teach one lesson to my class and expect every single person there to "get" it. I have to try a multitude of ways and try to reach a multitude of individuals, and it takes a buttload of effort on my part. But that's the way it's done. Teachers who try to "teach to the middle" or who expect everyone to fall in line perfectly have the lowest success rates.<p>So enough mumbo jumbo about teaching. Here at the wiki, we have a lot of stupidity that creeps into pages that don't get patrolled as often as others--namely the theory pages. (Spoiler pages, too, but mostly the theory sections of those pages.) It's rare that you'll see me visit those pages. In fact, I visited one today, and I think there was only one theory there, and it wasn't a bad one. But it was riddled with grammar mistakes, so I started editing. I could have gone on much longer and taken my editing to other theory pages, but I just couldn't bring myself to do that. Ugh. I generally stay away from those pages.<p>Yes, all pages at Heroes Wiki are supposed to be professional in nature. But some have gone so far to the other side that trying to bring them back to a level of professionalism seems like an insurmountable task. I know. My suggestion is either 1, stay away from those pages, or 2, work with one individual at a time to bring up the level of professionalism.<p>Now all that jazz having been said, there are a bunch of yahoos and idiots who will still be jerks and put stupid stuff on some pages. I've seen about a million theories about the [[drug dealer]] and [[Harry Fletcher]]. I don't have the energy--or desire--to go through the history and find out who did it, and then to give the person a proper warning. So it continues. (If anybody knows who the db is, please give them a kind but firm warning--and if they give you trouble, let me know.) <p>I know this is a superlong rant, but my point is to kind of give you the place where I'm coming from. I don't think getting rid of the theory pages altogether is a good idea, as it's a hook for a lot of people (myself included) to join the site. And just because there are a few jerks who hog the pages with inane theories doesn't mean we should cut off our nose to spite our face, so to speak. The theory pages themselves aren't innately stupid. It's the content that can be, and so it's the content that needs to be removed or modified. This should probably be discussed at the [[Heroes Wiki talk:community portal|community portal]], but maybe we need stricter guidelines for the theory pages (see [[Help:Theories]]). Maybe we need to dedicate one or two patrollers to just working on the theory pages. Maybe somebody has another idea... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:11, 1 March 2009 (EST) |

**** Wow honestly didn't realise there was such a problem. As of now I'm done with any "silly" theories and whatnot, and to try and make it up to everyone am going to go and clean up the Drug dealer's theory page and check any of the spoiler pages for drug dealer theories and the like. I'm not sure if an apology is due but I am done with these stupid jokes that much is certain.--[[User:Steelymcbeam|Steelymcbeam]] 23:35, 1 March 2009 (EST) |
|||
***** Thanks, Steelymcbeam. I certainly wasn't directing my long message at you, but at the general stupidity of many theories. It's dangerous ground we walk on when we say "any valid theory is admissible." Some people feel that gives them free reign to be as outlandish as possible. Thanks for cleaning up the pages. It's very much appreciated. :) Let me know if you need any help with anything. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:10, 2 March 2009 (EST) |

==New Main Page ideas== |
|||
I think it would be good to have links to both the latest ''Behind the Eclipse''s and ''Beaming Beeman''s on the Main Page. They are both great resources for information about the Heroes-verse and it would make it easier to know when the new ones are up. It would also make it easier than going to the links section and it would help users understand where some of the new/unexplained information is coming from (eg. how Matt has precognition, why Sylar held onto telekinesis when he lost his other absorbed abilities). --<span style="font-size: 10pt; font-weight:bold;"></span>'''[[User:Elemental Manipulator|Elemental Manipulator]]'''</span> [ [[User:Elemental Manipulator|U]] | [[User_talk:Elemental Manipulator|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Elemental Manipulator|C]] ]'''</small> - <span style="color:green;">When in doubt, ask BTE </span> 04:51, 2 March 2009 (EST) |
|||
*I concur. This is a great idea, and it would encourage newcomers to the show/wiki to read those interviews. I'd rather go to the main page for these links than to the interview page. As to where they would go, I think it's time to take away the "Did you know..." section. It hasn't been updated in such a long time. This would make up more space in the interview blurb for official blog entries and Q&A's.--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 05:47, 2 March 2009 (EST) |
|||
** Yeah, I don't think adding those links on the main page is a bad idea. They're both wonderful resources, and I think publicizing them a bit more is a good idea. I'm not in favor of removing the DYK section. If it hasn't been updated in awhile, the remedy is not to remove it, but to update it. I added the links to the [[template:news|news section]] where there are other "see also" links and other external links. BTE and Beeman aren't really news per se, but they seem to fit well in that section. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 08:26, 2 March 2009 (EST) |

* Part of consensus is not only that everybody agrees, but that nobody disagrees. Not commenting on a page that should pretty much be watched by everybody and that has been bumped a sufficient number of times--well that to me implies that nobody's opposed, otherwise they would have commented. I think you're fine to go ahead with the proposal. If you need help, let me know. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 13:04, 2 March 2009 (EST) |

** I have made a draft for sylar season 1 [[Sylar/Quotes Season One|here]], it is just a test of formatting (not categories and such), I prefer the top layout more, but if it is inkeeping it should be the bottom one. --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 15:52, 2 March 2009 (EST) |

Spam
Hi Ryan, please do something, there's a lot of spammers and I can't block them on the wiki. Thank you --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 16:42, 6 January 2016 (EST)
- Like white on rice! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 19:40, 6 January 2016 (EST)
You still missed quite "a few".
This page shows all new pages created, including the spam, so you just need to keep deleting them until you see there aren't any except regular non-spam pages. Sandubadear (talk) 20:39, 6 January 2016 (EST)
- And this page shows all newly created accounts, you can see which of those new accounts are the spammers and then block them all. Sandubadear (talk) 20:43, 6 January 2016 (EST)
- Yep, I know. I had to go run an errand. I see the list, though. Thanks! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:02, 6 January 2016 (EST)
- 773 deletions later ... what a waste of an evening. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:45, 6 January 2016 (EST)
- Yeah, I was here when they started and I couldn't do anything to prevent it. They were to fast (5 creations per minute). --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 00:07, 7 January 2016 (EST)
- Ugh. Thanks for messaging me. That's the only reason I saw it! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 00:09, 7 January 2016 (EST)

Re-spam
Hi Ryan,
It seems the spammers start again. Sorry to wake you up. I tried to write to Admin by email. I know this is the sleeping time for you. Admin should install the Nuke extension to faster the deletion of spammers' pages. Thanks --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 01:24, 7 January 2016 (EST)
- I couldn't do anything, they use your sleeping time to spam up! :-( --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 06:45, 7 January 2016 (EST)
- I took care of it and temporarily disabled new user creation since we're in a slow period between episodes anyway. (Admin (talk) 06:48, 7 January 2016 (EST))
- There may also be some residual by some of the spam accounts that were already created and not yet blocked, but if the account spams they'll be blocked. (Admin (talk) 06:57, 7 January 2016 (EST))
- Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 08:06, 7 January 2016 (EST)
- Ryan, there is one survivor. I cannot shoot him as I don't have admin rights on the English wiki. Thank you. --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 15:17, 7 January 2016 (EST)

Refrences
I wanted to cite my source for edits I made to Gemini Formula but the refrences formating is not working at all. I have no clue how to fix it. --Snow Leapord (talk) 06:15, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- We don't use a template for references like Wikipedia. We just put the source afterwards. So it would just be something like this. (Heroes Reborn: Enigma) ... Where exactly are you trying to put the source? I'll take care of it if you have a hard time with it... -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 06:24, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- I took care of it. I didn't think it looked right to leave the reference normal font size, so I shrunk it. --Snow Leapord (talk) 08:07, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- I made it the normal size for standardization. Good work on the page! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 11:23, 28 January 2016 (EST)

Differences in Gemini & Enigma
I noticed in Enigma when Dahlia & 2014 Cassie interact that Cassie isn't wearing the Renautas smart glasses. Also in Enigma during the last meeting between Dahlia & 2014 Cassie, Dahlia doesn't have ask Cassie to do anything about the lasers or the platform she can't jump to because it is to high.
Should we mention the differences at all? If so where? --Snow Leapord (talk) 08:06, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- I noticed those same things. We usually mention continuity errors in the Notes section of the page. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 10:26, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- You could also mention them to developer support at http://phosphorgames.com/blog/connect/ as Phosphor might decide to fix them if they decide to release a new edition of the games.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:30, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- RGS should it be mentioned on both games or just one game? If only one game which? --Snow Leapord (talk) 12:01, 28 January 2016 (EST)
- Both since it's an error that affects both. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 12:39, 28 January 2016 (EST)
Re: New Season
The article you linked in Template:News at http://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/heroes-reborn-season-one-ratings-38153/ just shows the ratings now and not that the current season will not be renewed. Am I missing something? Did the article change?--MiamiVolts (talk) 22:10, 1 February 2016 (EST)
- Sorry, wrong link. I'll fix it. Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 22:27, 1 February 2016 (EST)
- I think you should also add a link to one of the articles where I think Kring's comments can be summarized as that the Heroes saga isn't over even though Heroes Reborn as a tv series is not planned to continue, such as http://tvseriesfinale.com/tv-show/heroes-reborn-tim-kring-not-done-heroes-yet/ --MiamiVolts (talk) 23:23, 1 February 2016 (EST)
- Thanks, I will add that. Feel free to update the links on your own in the future, if you want. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 18:50, 2 February 2016 (EST)
- Ok, changed 'incantations' to 'incarnations' as I think that's what you meant... :)--MiamiVolts (talk) 19:04, 2 February 2016 (EST)
BananaClownMan
Can you talk with this guy? He does not listen, and edits everything with his wrong info. Look at these links [[1]] he made a change, admin corrected it, and today he made the same change again [[2]] Sekobro 14:52, 11 February 2016

Delete photo
Hey I wanted ask you maybe you can delete this photo File:Adamhiro.jpg. It is very old photo. Adamhiro 15:06, 18 February 2016
- Done. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:08, 18 February 2016 (EST)
Damen Peak
Hey, so we have been terrible at keeping the website up to date! lol, but I just made the 3 parts for the Damen Peak webisodes. If you could help me out some by uploading photos and summaries, that would be great. Right now, the portal has the standard picture for all 3 of them....so that's a problem... ~~IHH—Talk 18:20, 18 February 2016 (EST)
- Sure. That will have to wait until this weekend or later though. I don't have my computer with me that can easily edit images. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 20:22, 18 February 2016 (EST)
- Awesome! I don't know who wrote and directed the first and last ones (I took the names from the second and put them on all three)...With this, we don't have actors for Jim and Lilly...We need episode pictures and title pictures as well as image-nav things...Do the ability pages need updating?...Do I need to attach URLs to the videos on NBC website?....I updated the checklist. So only the things listed on DP, Part 2 that aren't checked are what we still need to do. ~~IHH—Talk 09:57, 19 February 2016 (EST)
- Whole thing was written and directed by the same people. No known actors for Jim or Lilly unfortunately. I've done some digging and can't figure it out. (A lot of the crew that I'm in contact with didn't even know that these web exclusives even existed...) I'll work on episode pictures this weekend. I think the ability page for persuasion has already been updated, but we could use some more images. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:40, 19 February 2016 (EST)

Vengeance
Hey, just wondering about the Issues portal. Who were the Vengeances centered around? We have it as "El Vengador" who technically isn't a person....Is there someone else that we can put on that? ~~IHH—Talk 16:41, 26 February 2016 (EST)
- I think keeping it as El Vengador is fine, since it was about both Oscar and his grandfather, as well as the idea of being El Vengador. It reminds me of the Evs Dropper comics in that way, in that Evs wasn't a single person either. But to answer your question, the comics are all told from Oscar's perspective. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 18:32, 26 February 2016 (EST)
Episode Pages
Hey, so there is a lot still to do here for Heroes Reborn and I was wondering if you, me, and maybe some others would like to devote the next couple of weeks to getting it all up to speed. So I'm suggesting this week we really go hard on getting the episode pages done. Summaries, Plots, MQs, etc. You think we can encourage others to help us?
MQ on 501, Synopsis on 506, MQ on 507, Synopsis and MQ on 508, Summary Synopsis and MQ on 509, Synopsis and MQ on 510, Story Dev and Synopsis on 511, Synopsis and Title Card on 512, Synopsis and Title Card on 513. As well, images from the episodes in the Synopsis' on all episodes.
~~IHH—Talk 15:47, 29 February 2016 (EST)
- Totally agree. Sounds like a plan. I am pretty busy intermittently in the next few weeks with work and other commitments. But I help out wherever I can when I get a chance. I know you have a hard time doing pictures, so if there are any images you need, just drop a note on my page I'd be glad to get them for you when I get a chance. FYI, title cards for 512 and 513 don't exist. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:38, 29 February 2016 (EST)
Season Summary
Hey, I realize this is kind of forward looking, but I was updating the Season History templates in case we get another installment and need to do a Reborn portion. I am having difficulties with three things: 1) When I type "Noah Bennet/Heroes Reborn" it does not take me to the button that says "New season summary page" 2) If I were to put it on the original page as {{season summary|season=Reborn}}, then the link appears as [[Noah Bennet/Season Reborn|Noah Bennet: Season Reborn History]] 3) On the top of the Season archive footer template, it will normally link to the previous season history if their is one and I can't seem to work it with the Reborn part Can you help me with these couple things? Thanks, ~~IHH—Talk 15:50, 10 March 2016 (EST)
- The "new season summary page" is set up to appear when the title "/Season" appears in the subpagename. I can make a workaround for the few individual pages. I don't think we need to do any major structural changes since this really only affects Noah and maybe a handful of other characters. If there's another iteration of Heroes, then we can cross that bridge later. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:44, 10 March 2016 (EST)
- Actually, I think the biggest issue is that there was a misspelling on the archive page. It said "Rebron" instead of Reborn" so I don't think it was pulling the info correctly... Also, on Noah's main page, I didn't use the template, I just wrote the info, which works... -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 00:13, 11 March 2016 (EST)
- Oh, okay. I wasn't meaning that we do it now. It was mainly just to smooth the bridges later incase we needed to. It shows the category at the bottom of Noah Bennet/Heroes Reborn Category:Season Reborn Histories. I have tried to work around it, but I don't quite understand the if exist or page name templates and how I can utilize that to work. ~~IHH—Talk 07:48, 11 March 2016 (EST)
- The "if exist" command just means that if the page exists on the wiki, do whatever it says to do. So something like {{#ifexist: Peter Petrelli | [[Peter Petrelli]] | Peter Petrelli }} means that if there is a page called "Peter Petrelli" on the wiki, link it. If not, don't link it. That command would show up as Peter Petrelli. Something like {{#ifexist: Foo | [[Foo]] | Foo }} would show up as just Foo. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:05, 11 March 2016 (EST)
- I fixed the category issue. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:23, 11 March 2016 (EST)
- Is there a way for me to edit the MediaWiki:Newarticletext page to have the New Season Summary page button appear if it says Heroes Reborn? ~~IHH—Talk 08:22, 11 March 2016 (EST)
- No, only admins can edit MediaWiki pages. I'll take care of it. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:06, 11 March 2016 (EST)

Making this Wiki Pretty Again
Hey,
So with Heroes Reborn ending, we have a lot of stubs out there and frankly most of the new articles are incomplete (including episode pages). Therefore, I am hoping to inspire you and others to do this challenge with me. On my userpage, I have gone to all of the stubbed pages and separated them out by episode. Therefore, we can rewatch an episode and pay extra attention to these things that have stubs. So, my challenge is to follow this schedule to get everything listed under each category done. Hopefully if we all work together and can narrow down where we can help, we can finish this soon.
Schedule:
- Week of March 20: (Brave New World)
- Week of March 27: (Odessa)
- Week of April 3: (Under the Mask)
- Week of April 10: (The Needs of the Many)
- Week of April 17: (The Lion's Den)
- Week of April 24: (Game Over)
- Week of May 1: (June 13th, Part One)
- Week of May 8: (June 13th, Part Two)
- Week of May 15: (Sundae, Bloody Sundae)
- Week of May 22: (11:53 to Odessa)
- Week of May 29: (Send in the Clones)
- Week of June 5: (Company Woman)
- Week of June 12: (Project Reborn)
After this, we have graphic novels, webisodes, ebooks, and ability pages to finish up. But this way, a lot of it can get done. If you can't help one week or something, that's okay! This is just to inspire you and others to team together to get this done, there aren't a lot of pages under each episode, so maybe we could bust it out in a week, but maybe not! What do you say, you in? ~~IHH—Talk 14:05, 15 March 2016 (EDT)
- It's a great idea, and I love the amount of thought you put into this. I'll do my best to stay on schedule, but I can't promise anything. Spring is my super busy time of the year, getting ready for summer camp, wrapping up schoolwork, and getting my kids to all their sports activities. I'll try to stay with it, but I can't dedicate time now like I used to ... :( -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 00:49, 16 March 2016 (EDT)
- Sounds great! Will you do me a favor and fill in Coach Lewis' ability section? I have never really been good at these because I don't really know what to put. This would get this page all caught up. Thanks ~~IHH—Talk 15:41, 21 March 2016 (EDT)
- No problem. All done. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 18:08, 21 March 2016 (EDT)

Godsend, Part 4
Hey, do you by chance have Godsend, Part 4? I noticed today that there wasn't a page for it yet, so I made one but I do not have a copy of it, so I cannot put any actual information on it. ~~IHH—Talk 18:45, 11 July 2016 (EDT)
- Yes, I have it. I was actually coming here to update the site in preparation for Part 5 which comes out tomorrow. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 10:04, 12 July 2016 (EDT)
- Awesome! I am seeing that part 5 comes out on July 20 ~~IHH—Talk 11:41, 13 July 2016 (EDT) https://www.comixology.com/Heroes-Godsend-5/digital-comic/376810
