Is there a way to specify the widths of the TOCs on pages? Also, is there a way to cause the TOC to be hidden (or "collapsed") by default? --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 05:22, 1 November 2009 (EST)
* Sort of. To specify the width of the TOC, you have to use [[template:tocleft|a TOC template]]. Try adding <code><nowiki>{{tocleft|100px}}</nowiki></code> to make a super thin TOC. Making it wider than normal (like <code><nowiki>{{tocleft|700px}}</nowiki></code>) will only pad whitespace to the right of the TOC, not make the actual box wider. As for a TOC that is hidden as a default, we don't have anything like that here. However, take a look at [[Wikipedia:Template:TOChidden|Wikipedia's custom template for a hidden TOC]]. I'm not sure if we have the capabilities to recreate that here or not--we might, I just don't know. Hope that helps. Let me know if you'd like me to do a bit of further investigating for you. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 11:34, 1 November 2009 (EST)
** One additional thing, which I think Radicell might have been alluding to re. hiding the TOC: You can suppress a TOC from appearing on a page by adding "<nowiki>__NOTOC__</nowiki>" (minus the quotes) on a line by itself on the page.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 00:09, 3 November 2009 (EST)

Hi Ryan, sorry if bother you but I ask you something. A few days ago, on this site I found a page on all pairs of agents of [[the company]] (ex. [[Noah]]-[[Elle]], [[Noah]]-[[Meredith]]...) you may post them here the link to the page that I can not find more? Thanks, {{User:Tanderix/sign}}

About a week ago I asked you to delete some userpages I wasn't using before and I forgot to ask if you could delete the unused images from them as well.

== Refrences ==
Just checking, is the image I uploaded in the correct size and category? also, would it be considered a spoiler to add the "episodes directed" section now? - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 11:30, 1 November 2009 (EST)
* Correct size, check. Correct category, check. (Good find on the image, by the way!) I don't consider the director of an episode to be a spoiler--we've already added that template to other directors (like [[Nate Goodman]] and [[Jim Chory]]) and writers (like [[Rob Fresco]] and [[Mark Verheiden]]). I think it's fine to add the template. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 11:43, 1 November 2009 (EST)
**Ok thanks, I've added a bit of information but it'll take a bit more digging to get information like dob and birthplace, I'll have a look around - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 11:50, 1 November 2009 (EST)


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. --[[User:Snow Leapord|Snow Leapord]] ([[User talk:Snow Leapord|talk]]) 06:15, 28 January 2016 (EST)
== red links ==
* 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... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 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. --[[User:Snow Leapord|Snow Leapord]] ([[User talk:Snow Leapord|talk]]) 08:07, 28 January 2016 (EST)
*** I made it the normal size for standardization. Good work on the page! :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 11:23, 28 January 2016 (EST)


== Differences in Gemini & Enigma ==
The page "Help:Consensus checks" doesn't exist but there's many links to it, will it be created or is it not needed? - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 12:52, 1 November 2009 (EST)

* Thanks for letting me know. Is there a reason I would think you were one of those other users? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:24, 1 November 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.


Should we mention the differences at all? If so where? --[[User:Snow Leapord|Snow Leapord]] ([[User talk:Snow Leapord|talk]]) 08:06, 28 January 2016 (EST)
==Sorry To Bother You...==
* I noticed those same things. We usually mention continuity errors in the Notes section of the page. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 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.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk: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? --[[User:Snow Leapord|Snow Leapord]] ([[User talk:Snow Leapord|talk]]) 12:01, 28 January 2016 (EST)

*Plus, (and please forgive my technical ignorance), please could you tell me how to make an info box (Well, I think it's called an infobox- I'm talking abouth the large box on the right of character and user pages). Thanks again--[[User:Hiroman|Hiroman]] 13:08, 2 November 2009 (EST)

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.

Is matt jr still the youngest to have an ability. With the new Istory, is [[Draph]] or his twin brother, not the youngest to have an ability. Or does this not count because it is not from a cannon source? --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 12:35, 4 November 2009 (EST)
* Only the information from the iStory is considered canonical (or near-canonical, as the case may be). The information from [[Heroes: Survival]] is not canonical. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:59, 4 November 2009 (EST)


Hey I wanted ask you maybe you can delete this photo File:Adamhiro.jpg. It is very old photo. [[User:Adamhiro|Adamhiro]] 15:06, 18 February 2016‎

== Damen Peak ==
Hey, as you've noticed, people are raising issue with Phoenix Mimicry. It was not my intent to create something unreasonable and I just thought it was something fairly original. What is your opinion? I would be fine with changing my Survival story for simplicity and 'canoness' if you feel its best for everyone.
* Personally, I like the ability (which is one reason I helped recommend Draph to be a crossover character)...but that's just my opinion, which really has nothing to do with whether we consider the ability to be part of the ''Heroes'' canon on this wiki or not. Nor does it matter what other people think. Fans always get up in arms about certain things, and there's not much that can be done about it. I think there was a lot of unnecessary rudeness on [[talk:phoenix mimicry|the ability's talk page]], and for that people should be ashamed. But beyond that, [[Draph]] and [[phoenix mimicry]] were featured in an [[iStory]], so they are from a [[canon]] (or rather, a near-canon) source, and should absolutely be included in the wiki, of course. As for the backstory that you wrote at [[Heroes: Survival]], that's a secondary source, and not considered a canon (or near-canon) source. That information can be on the wiki, but it should remain in the notes section of Draph's page, and the notes section of the ability page. Only the information featured in the iStory itself belongs in the main body of the articles.<p>By the way, congratulations on being featured as the third crossover character of this iStory! I think [[Zach Wilson]] did a great job synthesizing the background information you wrote at Heroes: Survival. You should be proud! :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 07:50, 5 November 2009 (EST)
**Thank you, I was extremely pleased! I have noticed other people adding Survival info to other pages. I've been trying to take it down but it still gets put back up. So I was wondering if you could be a more authoritative matter on those issues, namely Ability Replication and Telekinesis. Also, for some of the character information, can that still go into the "about" section, as I have seen all other crossover characters do? (EDIT) plus, if you ever see something that should not be in any of the pages, please change it immediately, (as you prob would have done anyway) I just want Draph and his pages to be the most canon as possible for an istory character.
*** Will do, Draph. I've read the iStory, but I haven't gotten around to doing much editing this week--my wife and I have been in and out of the hospital with contractions. The baby should come any time now. I wouldn't be surprised if she's born this weekend! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:48, 5 November 2009 (EST)
**** Well, hot dog, congrats! I don't think it should be that much of a problem anymore, the changes have seemingly stopped re-emerging. Although, Draph is still under some heavy fire for being a mimic and having an unique ability. :( o well. haha. Congrats again! [[User:Draphoenix|Draphoenix]] 22:47, 5 November 2009 (EST)
***** Thanks! Let me know if you need my help with anything. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:53, 5 November 2009 (EST)
****** Oh, about the "about" section, to what degree can HSG stuff go into there. I guess if you could quickly glance at Draph's page and let me know what I can do to make it better and canonical. I understand you are busy, but hopefully it shouldn't take too long.[[User:Draphoenix|Draphoenix]] 23:20, 5 November 2009 (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.

I'd appreciate the help, thanks - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 05:03, 5 November 2009 (EST)
* On that page, you have the width set (twice) to be 100%. Take that out, because that's making the table you've created span the entire page. Not good. Instead, add in <code>class="infobox"</code>, which will float the entire box on the right side of the page. I also suggest you take a look at other infoboxes (like [[template:character box]] or [[template:user infobox]]), and then copy the pertinent codes from those pages, and customize it so it fits what you want.

* 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.

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?
== Some more pages and images ==


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.
Can you delete these pages and images as well. I only found them when i was searching through my watchlist:

== About my template ==
== 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:
I wasn't trying to do something with spoilers, I was trying to create a template (rather unsuccessfully), that would allow for text to appear as black bars or "censored". I wanted the text to only be revealed by moving the cursor over it, like this: http://uncyclopedia.wikia.com/wiki/Template:C . I'm not sure how to do that, but I was trying to figure it out, which is why it currently doesn't do anything. If you could help out in any way, (again, I'm not doing anything with spoilers) it would be much appreciated. --[[User:Bender|Bender]] 22:22, 5 November 2009 (EST)
1) When I type "Noah Bennet/Heroes Reborn" it does not take me to the button that says "New season summary page"
* Thanks for letting me know. This conversation belongs at [[template talk:C]], not on my talk page...so I'll leave my comments there. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:26, 5 November 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>
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, {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 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. :) -- {{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)
**** No, only admins can edit MediaWiki pages. I'll take care of it. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:06, 11 March 2016 (EST)


== Making this Wiki Pretty Again ==
== Consensus ==


Hey,
Hey, about the consensus check on Trevor's ability. We do have enough information to make a decision as it stands, we've seen a clear example of what the ability does and we also have a description from the writers. It's very doubtful we will ever get to know more about it, but what we do know is, this is an ability and this is all it does (shatter glass), It's speculative to say it would have even worked on Sylar. I think this is justified grounds for a consensus check, what do you think? - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 05:41, 6 November 2009 (EST)
* There is no consensus for a name. I believe I left a comment on that talk page last night. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 15:15, 6 November 2009 (EST)
**I think I may have worded my explanation incorrectly, I meant that there is enough information to run a consensus check, clearly as it stands there is no consensus but I'm sure in time a consensus can be reached. - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 17:46, 6 November 2009 (EST)
*** I appreciate your enthusiasm and optimism, but time has only shown that our community is split on the name. The article's talk page itself serves as a consensus check. However, a formal consensus check was conducted when the ability first debuted a year ago ([[Talk:Trevor's ability/Archive 1#Consensus check|see here]]). It was painfully obvious that there was no consensus on a name back then. Here we are, a year later with absolutely no new information, and there is still no consensus. However, a formal consensus check was held in recent days ([[Talk:Trevor's ability#Consensus - This is it|see here]]). It is still clear as day that the community does not agree on a name. I believe that this is because we have not found a name that is non-speculative. But whatever the reason, more than one consensus check has been conducted (when only one was needed), and both have concluded that there is no consensus. With no new information about the ability, another consensus check would be superfluous. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:37, 6 November 2009 (EST)

***** A blast is (or connotes) a strong gust or stream of wind or air. I don't know if that's how Trevor blew up those glasses. But regardless, that's really not the point of my post above. The point of the above post is that there is no consensus on a name, and no need for another consensus check. But speculative or not, it's just my own idea that the reason our community can't come to a consensus is because there is no non-speculative name, or at least our community perceives that there is no non-speculative name. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:45, 6 November 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.
== A Few Things... ==


Schedule:
Hey Ryan. God it's been ages since I've spoken to you - but hi. Sorry about not being on the wiki much lately, I've been busy with school, but it's starting to clear up now, so I'll be on a bit more. Firstly, you might want to watch [[User:Draphoenix|Draphphoenix]]. He is the creator or [[Draph]] from the istory, and with the raging argument going on with [[Phoenix mimicry]] he seems to have tried to correct himself, but took it a bit to far, he deleted all the information from the page [http://heroeswiki.com/index.php?title=Phoenix_mimicry&diff=prev&oldid=388474 here]. I'm not sure if I'm right to be correcting, but he deleted all the info and changed anything without any given consenus, so I'd thought I'd change it back. I don't think he needs to be blocked, but a just a heads up - he seems nice, but I'd be annoyed too if so many people were slamming my ability. On this subject, congrats on becoming a istory writer! Just wondering, how do you pick people from Heroes Survival to go into istory. Personally, I'm a fan of phoenix mimicry, but others, lets say not so much. Also, when you choose them from survival, do you make everything they say 'canon' - because I can see this getting confusing. Taking Draph into account for example, his twin died in the womb and he acquired without having an ability to mimic other abilities. I'm not sure if I'm making myself clear, but the whole thing is starting to confuse me now. Thanks --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 15:22, 6 November 2009 (EST)
*Week of March 20: {{epp|501}}
* Hey, Irony. Thanks for the heads up about Draphoenix. He contacted me [[#Draph|above]] about some of his concerns. People have been unnecessarily rude about his creation, which I just don't understand. Regardless, he shouldn't have blanked the page about the power, even if it was something he thought of originally. The power now belongs to the world of ''Heroes'', not to any individual. I think you're right though, that in this case it's not an act of vandalism, but just a good guy who got frustrated with rude things people were saying about him. <p>I'm actually not an iStory writer, but I work very closely with [[Zach Wilson]], who is the writer of the iStory. The rest of us help, support, approve, and collaborate with Zach. I am not the only one who chooses H:S characters to cross over, but I am one of the people. Personally, I look for characters who have cool powers and cool backstories. There's no science to it--when I see something that strikes me as cool, I note it. Zach has a few different criteria, as he's trying to look for a character that will fit in his story, as well as be a "cool" character.<p>As for the [[canon]]icity of H:S, I covered that information a bit covered [[Talk:Heroes: Survival#Crossover characters...|here]], but I'll certainly talk more about it, because I don't want anybody to be confused by the levels of what's "official" and what's not. :) The information created by fans is not canon. Only the stories told in the iStories, graphic novels, etc. is canon (or near-canon, as the case may be). With very few exceptions (like pictures and page titles), we only put the information from Heroes: Survival in the notes. It's the information Zach (and other writers) use as a basis to create the character in the canon or near-canon works. But all the "extra" information that wasn't actually included in the iStory should be kept in the notes. That also means that if a character from H:S is featured in the iStory, but he doesn't demonstrate a power, he should not be considered an evolved human. The information about his power should be kept in the notes.<p>I hope that long-winded explanation helps! :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 15:36, 6 November 2009 (EST)
*Week of March 27: {{epp|502}}
**But if only the stuff that appears in the istory is canon, does that not mean that his ability name is not cannon? --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 15:49, 6 November 2009 (EST)
*Week of April 3: {{epp|503}}
*** The ability name is not canon. It comes from a secondary source. See the "power names" box on [[talk:phoenix mimicry]]. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 18:28, 6 November 2009 (EST)

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? {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 14:05, 15 March 2016 (EDT)
== Help:Consensus checks ==
* 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 ... :( -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 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 {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 15:41, 21 March 2016 (EDT)

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. {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 18:45, 11 July 2016 (EDT)

Hey Ryan, I don't know how you feel about this kind of thing, but all the videos of the Slow Burn webisodes link to my youtube account videos. Now, the above user is continuously changing them to his own, or someone he knows. The videos are of no better quality, but these changes are the only thing that the user contributes to the wiki and I was wondering if you could maybe have a word with them?
*** Yep, they moved the date... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 23:42, 14 July 2016 (EDT)

And good luck with Hallie this coming week (hopefully)! :) --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 15:13, 7 November 2009 (EST)

*Hold on, I just visited his page and saw that you've already talked to him. Never mind. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 15:14, 7 November 2009 (EST)

== Show/hide ==

Can you show me the code for showing and hiding sections of pages. I want to use it on my [[User talk:Mc hammark/Aptitude test|aptitude test]] page so I can easily switch between which users I'm looking at. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 16:23, 7 November 2009 (EST)
* I think you're talking about collapsible tables. Check out some of the power example pages (like [[examples of super speed]] or [[examples of telepathy]]). If that's what you're looking for and you need me to explain the code to you, let me know. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:28, 7 November 2009 (EST)

== Character Appearances ==

How come Isaac is considered a Season 4 character. They just placed this clip in the episode, it was originally in [[Seven Minutes to Midnight]]. I think it would please a lot more fans and make more sense if we made the template at the bottem of the page a season 1 instead of a season 4. This would also apply to characters that were in the Hall or Mirrors in Tabula Rasa. Please condsider this. [[User:Homersimpson|Homersimpson]] 19:46, 7 November 2009 (EST)
*I think the difference is that even though it was old footage, [[Santiago Cabrera]]'s name was in the credits. I could be wrong though. -- {{User:Tristan0709/Signature}} 23:01, 7 November 2009 (EST)

It may be because his name was in the credits, however the names of the actresses who play [[Jackie]], [[Sue Landers]] and [[Ted]] were not listed in the credits. I think we should stick to keeping them as season one characters or three in Sue's case. With Isaac, I say we should leave it as a season four minor foor now but consider correcting it to season one. [[User:Homersimpson|Homersimpson]] 16:12, 8 November 2009 (EST)
* I'm pretty sure Isaac's footage was actually new footage in ''[[Once Upon a Time in Texas]]''. But even if it isn't, we still include archival footage as part of the show. We don't distinguish between archival footage and new footage. For our purposes at the wiki, it's all the same. So the hall of mirrors scene included several characters that had not yet been seen in Season Four, and they are now all Season Four characters. (The only exception to this is montages of scenes that have not yet happened yet, like at the beginning of ''[[Orientation]]''.) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:20, 8 November 2009 (EST)

It isn't new footage, I recently watched Seven Minutes Till Midnight.[[User:Homersimpson|Homersimpson]] 16:22, 8 November 2009 (EST)

== Tom's ability [[Talk:Tom's ability#Rename discussion|consensus]] ==

Hey Ryan. There has been talk, without any objections to renaming Tom's ability to Disintegration. I know you have said on the Trevor's ability consensus that we have little info about the ability, and the community has not been able to come to a consensus. What would be your input on this consensus?--{{User:Catalyst/sig}} 21:27, 7 November 2009 (EST)
* I gave [[Talk:Tom's ability#Rename discussion|my input]] back when the ability was originally shown on ''Heroes''. I like "collapsing" or "crumbling". I also think "disintegration" is good. I don't have a preference for one over the other. So long as the community agrees on a name, we're solid. On another note, one of the reasons I'm so opposed to a name for Trevor's ability has less to do with not knowing enough about the power (though that's certainly true), and much more to do with the writers' comment. I try to always take my cue from the writers and creative staff. When the writers were asked what the name of Trevor's ability was, their answer was a sarcastic way of basically saying that there is no name for the power. Until we learn more about it, I think "Trevor's ability" is what we should call it. For Tom's ability, though, as long as it describes what we've seen Tom do (crumbling, collapsing, disintegration, etc.), I'm fine with it. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:27, 8 November 2009 (EST)
**Ryan, can you sort this out? Instead of moving the article, someone copied and pasted the info to "disintegration", which was a redirect to Felicia's ability. [[User:Intuitive Empath|Intuitive Empath]] - [[User talk:Intuitive Empath|Talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Intuitive Empath|Contributions]] 19:05, 8 November 2009 (EST)
*Sorry, I think that was me. I thought that a consensus had been reached and I didn't relize the redirect. --{{User:BoomerDay/Signature}} 19:08, 8 November 2009 (EST)
** No worries. A consensus had been reached. When the target page already exists (as "disintegration" already existed on the wiki), then it has to be moved by an admin because only administrators can delete the already existing page. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:19, 8 November 2009 (EST)

== Disintegration disambig ==

Nice catch on the wording, just realised what it actually said, lol - {{User:Jenx222/sig2}} 19:22, 8 November 2009 (EST)
* Improperly placed modifiers can be so much fun! :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:01, 8 November 2009 (EST)

== Sylar's victims ==

Isn't [[Hank (Shadowboxing)]] a Sylar's victim, or an attempted victim? {{User:Tanderix/sign}}
* Technically, he is. Sylar possesses Matt. {{User:Altes/Signature}}
** Victim or attempted victim? {{User:Tanderix/sign}}
***Victim. He ''was'' killed. Even Matt said so. That was sylar's blackmail plan. Kill Hank so matt'll spill. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 13:27, 10 November 2009 (EST)
**** Right. Hank was Sylar's victim. Dead. Gone. And quite ugly, too. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:13, 10 November 2009 (EST)

== Hey Ryan, ==

Did you notice what I wrote in the [[Talk:Phoenix_mimicry#Why_are_you_being_so_horrible.3F.21|talk page of Phoenix mimicry]] and [[User_talk:Draphoenix#Phoenix_mimicry_.3D.2F.3D_Pyrokinesis|of Draphoenix]]. I'm really sad that Draphoenix went and changed his power's name in [http://www.nbc.com/heroes/survival/profiles/index.php?u=Draph his HS page]. Probably, he hasn't been around and didn't see much of what I wrote about/to him, (I really meant what I wrote) or he's really '''too''' offended. Could you communicate in any way with him, to say that there are actually people supporting him and his name of the power and to tell him that may be it's better if he changes back the name in the HS page (you would know better the latter part).

Does it become official now when he changes the name to pyrokinesis. Then do we have to delete the Phoenix mimicry page?!! I hope not. By the way, could you take a look to what I wrote to the [[Talk:Memory_restoration#Memory|talk page of memory restoration]]. What do you think? --[[User:Janrodrigo|Janrodrigo]] 09:11, 10 November 2009 (EST)
* I've talked with Draphoenix quite a bit...I agree, it's too bad that he's changed the name of the ability, I suppose either out of pressure from what he perceived from the community, or from the desire to just forget about having a power that some people didn't like. But what's even sadder is that our community decided to rail upon the ability and character (and in turn, the creator of both) so much. I don't understand why people who don't like something can't just keep it to themselves. I guess some people just have diarrhea of the mouth. Oh well. But no, any changes to Draph's H:S page are not canon. Part of the reason Zach Wilson and I chose his character was because we liked the phoenix mimicry power. We thought it was different, cool, and would be a fun one to write about. We didn't choose a character that had pyrokinesis, we chose a character that could mimic phoenixes. That's the ability that was shown in the iStory, no matter what changes were made to the character's H:S profile.<p>On another note, Jan, thanks for being such a helpful citizen of the ''Heroes'' community and a strong team player. Your supportive comments throughout the wiki (and particularly on the phonenix mimicry talk page) are much appreciated by me, and I'm sure by others. Thanks for being a good guy. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:17, 10 November 2009 (EST)

== Extra Bits ==

I just found [http://www.nbc.com/heroes/video/categories/extra-bits/1165419/ this video series] under the category Extra Bits at the official website. In case you haven't seen them, they feature [[Chandra Suresh]] during the [[1961]] era studying a pregnant woman, whose child's identity becomes pretty evident once you watch all the clips. Should there be a page for this series?--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 09:20, 11 November 2009 (EST)
*EDIT: Nevermind. Found [[Coyote Sands films|it]].

== Proposal to name ambiguous abilities ==

Before I am told that it has been discussed at length before, I want to propose that we take any ability named on this wiki by possessor's name and try to find an appropriate terminology for it, obviously based on what we know about the ability itself. If it were ever to expand on the show (it doesn't look like the majority of them will, to be honest), we could always just modify it as everyone sees fit. These are:
*[[Alejandro's ability]]
*[[Mohinder's ability]]
*[[Trevor's ability]]
Just a mere three that don't have a proper name. Do you think we should go forward with this? It would certainly make the [[Portal:Abilities|abilities portal]] look more complete.--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 13:46, 11 November 2009 (EST)

**These abilities ''have'' been discussed at lengths, have a look at their talk pages. [[Trevor's ability]] is on its way, don't worry. There's a group of us that are slowly pushing for names to be chosen. Notice how there's no longer [[Tom's ability]], [[Damien's ability]] or [[Teddy's ability]]. We're getting there but hopefully the ones you mentioned above will be changed soon. Oh, and Ryan's wife is in labour as far as I know so he may not be on for a while. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 13:52, 11 November 2009 (EST)
***Mc, the difference between Citizen's three and your three, is that people were able to agree on your three. Nobody can agree on Citizen's. Which is why they don't have names already after 1-2 years. I don't think its a bad idea.--{{User:Catalyst/sig}} 13:55, 11 November 2009 (EST)
****No, i know that, all I'm saying is that recently, there's been a group of us pushing for name changes for these abilities, so will most probably get them changed at some point in the near future. --[[User:Mc hammark|mc_hammark]] 13:57, 11 November 2009 (EST)
*****But it is still not likely. Citizen's three have been discussed for a couple years. Your three are more recent. If we haven't gotten names for the first three in about two years (now i'm not saying it's impossible), it's not likely we are going to be getting names for them.--{{User:Catalyst/sig}} 14:15, 11 November 2009 (EST)
******I see what you're saying, but I think it's a positive thing that they're still being discussed and haven't been named after two years. It gives us an incentive to actually give them names. Back then, it was all about "Let's wait until season three or a flashback episode to see if the ability is defined more". Alejandro's ability is clearly not going to make another appearance, so would we rather evaluate all it is capable of and give it a name or just leave it like that forever? What this needs is organization and a special page where we can discuss these kind of things for all abilities that fall under this category. I'd feel much obliged to create a subpage for this if its necessary.--[[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 14:32, 11 November 2009 (EST)
******* Catalyst is right--the difference between the two lists of powers is that our community agreed on names for one list, but not for the other. Additionally, I haven't seen a good name for Alejandro's ability, and there has been absolutely no new information about the power in a long time. I have my own thoughts on Mohinder's ability, and I have seen quite a few good names, but our community has not agreed on one. And with Trevor's ability, I take my cue from the writers--they were asked what the name was, and they gave an answer that was a sarcastic way of saying that there is no name for the ability, and I agree with them.<p>There is nothing wrong with having an ability named after a person. It's not ideal, but it's not wrong. And since the question was asked, I'm not a fan of changing the names of abilities when there's no new information about them--especially when the reason is that other similarly named abilities have been changed.<p>On the baby front, my wife and I have been in and out of the hospital, but no baby yet. Just lots (and lots!) of early labor... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:55, 11 November 2009 (EST)
* I don't really have an opinion either way with ability naming, but, just as an example - if you just came onto the wiki for the first time, you wouldn't nessecarily remember the name Trezor Zetilan, so mabye on the abilities portal should either have a small description of each ability or for the <i> so and so's ability </i> there should be a footnote describing the ability. --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 14:13, 14 November 2009 (EST)
** I think the pictures we have a pretty descriptive...and there are written discussions on the [[list of abilities]] (which is the page that comes up when a person searches for "[[abilities]]" or "[[powers]]"). -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:20, 14 November 2009 (EST)

== René the Haitian ==

Hey Ryan -
I noticed that on the Haitian's page, his name was changed to René for all 4 seasons. However, in the case of Mr.Bennet, his name was kept as "Mr.Bennet" in the summary of season 1. Therefore, I think that the Haitian should be referred to as "The Haitian" for at least seasons 1-3, if not those and the episodes before "Shadowboxing". It ruins the mystery for anyone who is watching Heroes and has not caught up to Volume 5.
Thanks

* Completely agree. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 22:55, 11 November 2009 (EST)
**I'm not sure how to go about doing that without messing up links and such. Could you or someone else that is more skilled at Wikipedia than I take care of this? Lol. - --[[User:MyNameIsSylar|Dan]] 14:12, 12 November 2009 (EST)
*** I don't have time today...but you won't mess up any links, so long as the link is to [[Haitian]] or [[the Haitian]], since those links redirect to René's page. Basically, you'll just want to go through and change when it says "René" to "Haitian" or "the Haitian"...if it's a reference to the character before this week's episode. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 14:44, 12 November 2009 (EST)

== Checklists ==

I know I always ask about these! But I have some questions. The webisodes, (Slow Burn, Part 7 in particular) are there any new interviews/videos that need to be added? Or can they be checked off? Also, how would you update the guest cast portal? And how would you check off the individual name? Also, what time frame are we looking at in these? {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 21:15, 12 November 2009 (EST)
* I don't know of any videos or interviews related to ''Slow Burn, Part 7'', other than the link to the webisode itself. The guest cast portal doesn't need to be updated because the only new characters who appeared have already appeared in the episodes. I don't know what you mean by checking off the individual name or the time frame. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:19, 12 November 2009 (EST)
**I mean like under the "Update Guest Portal" column thing, you list the actors/actresses and there is a line to the side, where you check them off. Is there anything that needs to be done for them? And for the timeline, when would this time frame be? {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 21:33, 12 November 2009 (EST)
*** Nothing needs to be done under "Update Guest Portal". This webisode takes place while Samuel is off with Claire. However, it's difficult to say what year--there is evidence that points to 2007, 2008, and 2009 (see [[Talk:Timeline:Post-March 2007#200when?|here]]). I would just check off that it's done, since we really can't put the information under a particular time. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:40, 12 November 2009 (EST)
****But it isn't done. We can wait and put it on there later. {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 21:46, 12 November 2009 (EST)
***** That's fine...but the reason it isn't done is because it can't be done (and shouldn't be done). See [[Talk:Timeline:Post-March 2007#200when?]]. If we state that events in Season Four take place in a certain time, we automatically negate canon information, since the canon information negates itself. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:52, 12 November 2009 (EST)

== Hey Ryan ==

I had asked Admin, but he never responded. I'm not sure if you know or not, but I have a [[User:Catalyst/Heroes Legends|fan fiction]], and was wondering if I could create a user account for it, like ''[[User:Cockney Heroes|Cockney Heroes]]'' has. I would be grateful if yes, but if not...I'll live.--{{User:Catalyst/sig}} 21:25, 12 November 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)

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)
Here we go again, they restart!!!! --LIMAFOX76 (talk) 01:06, 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)

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)

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)

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

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... ~~IHHTalk 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. ~~IHHTalk 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? ~~IHHTalk 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.

~~IHHTalk 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, ~~IHHTalk 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. ~~IHHTalk 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? ~~IHHTalk 08:22, 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:

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? ~~IHHTalk 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 ~~IHHTalk 15:41, 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. ~~IHHTalk 18:45, 11 July 2016 (EDT)
