== Heroes Reborn == |
|||
== A Global "To Do List" Page == |
|||
I was thinking it would be a good thing to come up with a global 'to do list' page. I know that we have several of the regular contributors with 'wish lists' on their userpages, and there is the [[Heroes Wiki:Requested Screen Captures|Requested Screen Captures]] page, and there might be some other similar isolated lists like this, but if we had one central point that all 'to do' and requested and wishlist stuff could be listed or linked from, it would probably help us be more productive. I know myself, I have free time when I would like to do more, but am not sure what is really needed. If we could have a "to do list" then it would allow anyone who is motivated, to have a focused jumping in point for getting things done. |
|||
I changed the very old "Next Graphic Novel" section to direct to [[Heroes Reborn]]. No spoilers, just a point to the new page. I figure that it should be a bit more prominent than it is. Also, I figure that's what people are looking for when they come to the site. Any objections? -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:21, 20 April 2014 (EDT) |

What do you guys think? (I am posting this here, since we don't seem to have a general 'suggestions page' either....) <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 06/22/2007 12:44 (EST)</small> |
|||
*Have you checked out [[Current events]]? I think that's being used for what you're asking for, but perhaps it needs to be expanded to cover more of the current todo items. Also for general suggestions you can use the [[Heroes_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal|talk page]] for the community portal, though a lot of people do leave general suggestions here on the main page. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 13:16, 22 June 2007 (EDT)) |
|||
** Right. There's also a general [[Template:Todo|to do list]] (and its [[Template:Todo2|sister]]). If you're looking for something to do, the site needs a blue paint job to cover up some of those [[special:wantedpages|red spots]] that keep creeping up. :) I wouldn't mind having our current events page a bit more useful--it'd be cool to talk about ideas that people have on their individual to do lists. That said, I will still keep my own to do list because it is sort of a dumping ground for things that I might want to revisit one day. I don't look at it all that often because I find that there's almost always something to do without having to consult a list, but I'm on the site a lot more frequently than most I think, so I probably have a pretty good lay of the land. But if somebody wants to fix up our [[current events]] or [[Heroes Wiki:community portal|community portal]], I think it's a great idea. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 13:34, 22 June 2007 (EDT) |

Man, that picture of Ugly Betty starring you down on the main page needs to hurry up and go! Yuucchhh!!! I'd much rather see [[Jason Badower]]'s drawings of Hana from (''[[The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 1|The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 1]]'' or ''[[The Death of Hana Gitelman, Part 2|2]]'') !! <small>--[[User:HiroDynoSlayer|HiroDynoSlayer]] ([[User talk:HiroDynoSlayer|talk]]) 06/29/2007 15:46 (EST)</small> |

* And that's only Part 1! Let's hope she turns into her [[Candice|future form]] quickly in Part 2! ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 15:49, 29 June 2007 (EDT)) |
|||
**In Part 2 there won't be any hints of her future form, but she will change her look quite a bit. Just look for her to try to fit in a bit. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 16:49, 29 June 2007 (EDT) |

I combined the [[Template:languagebar|languagebar]] with the [[Template:mediabar|mediabar]] since the language bar was looking kind of skimpy.

* Looks good to me! ([[User:Admin|Admin]] ([[User talk:Admin|talk]]) 17:00, 8 April 2015 (EDT)) |

The Heroes Wiki has been up since October and I think there should be a forum for its users to discuss the show. Are there any plans for one? -- [[User:Citizen|Citizen]] 20:10, 9 August 2007 |
|||
* No, I don't plan on adding a forum. There are a number of good forums out there already (like http://9thwonders.com) and I don't really think we need yet another Heroes forum. :) The others are well-established anyway and not only would it most likely be mostly inactive, but it would also take time away from working on the wiki. Also I figure we should stick to what we do best which is running a wiki, not a forum. If anything in the future we may see an expansion of the [[Heroes Wiki:Community Portal|Community Portal]] to support more informal discussions about the episodes/characters, but personally I'd rather just direct people over to a forum like 9thwonders.com where most of the other posters are already anyway.

== possible look change? == |
|||
Dunno where to discus this or how much sense It'll make but here goes: I think This site needs to have a look that is significantly different than the default carbon-copy-of-Wikipedia look. |
|||
reasons: |
|||
1) Aside from the comic book cover logo, the site looks exactly like Wikipedia. I recreationally browse both here and there, and at times forget where I am at because of the same look for both sites. I realize this when I go to look up something, say lemons, and find no articles here on lemons. If it were similar to, say [http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Main_Page Memory Alpha], in that it does not look like Wikipedia with a logo change, this might be avoided. |
|||
2) It looks to sterile for a cool show such as Heroes. |
|||
Am I right or is it just me?--[[User:SacValleyDweller|SacValleyDweller]] 17:49, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
* Last I heard, Admin is still open to add/reviewing new skins, that's what really controls the layout. When I checked it out before, it looked a bit complicated to make one, and Admin himself has to add it (you have to e-mail the file to him, I think). That said, there are already several skins in the options. You can change what skin you use by changing your preferences.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 18:11, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
** Ok, how do you make a skin for this and what can be done to make it the default for everyone?--[[User:SacValleyDweller|SacValleyDweller]] 18:36, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
*** You can read the main help on skins at [[Wikipedia:Wikipedia:Skin]] and examples of other skins at [[Wikipedia:Meta:Gallery_of_user_styles]]. That should get you started.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 18:49, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
****Personally, I like the skin we have, and wouldn't want a different one to be my default. However, I think it'd be cool if somebody wanted to do a test to redesign the main page to look a little more like a comic book. Maybe take a cue from the inside of the new [[DVD]] with panels that overlap, perhaps add some text bubbles. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:10, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
* Yes, I'm still open to a new default skin or changing the default colors of the current skin somewhat. Regardless I'd make sure the old unchanged skin was still available for selection. It's a bit of work to create a new skin, so what I'd suggest is if someone's skilled at it they come up with some conceptual drawings of what the new skin would look like and present them here for feedback prior to actually implementing the skin. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 20:18, 2 September 2007 (EDT)) |
|||
** I'm not too familiar with the coding, but I'll help with whatever needs to be done (I'll just have to look at some examples done to get a feel for it). So if someone does have an idea, I'll be more than willing to help knock out some code for it. I used to do a lot of HTML coding in high school.--[[User:Baldbobbo|Bob]] 20:41, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
*** [[Wikipedia:Meta:Gallery_of_user_styles]] has some good examples of what can be done... the internal coding looks to be in PHP language. I've done some PHP coding but I'm not good at it yet.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 21:43, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
**** I had a PHP class last semester, so I can use my text to help out with that (I got pretty good towards the end of the class).--[[User:Baldbobbo|Bob]] 22:55, 2 September 2007 (EDT) |
|||
**** Taking a look at that link, [http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Gallery_of_user_styles#Skinori_Bluedi this one] looks prety good, something like that would look nice, perhapse with a color like the 9thwonders.com background--[[User:SacValleyDweller|SacValleyDweller]] 01:24, 3 September 2007 (EDT) |

==Season Two Characters== |
|||
*Aren't Takezo (David Anders) and Monica (Dana Davis) going to be 3 of the two new main characters, along with Maya? Theres Sylar, Ando, MAya, Monica and Kensai. Right? Or am i wrong. o.O So confused... lol. P.S. MAth B sucks! [[User:Jason Garrick|Jason Garrick]] 15:46, 30 September 2007 (EDT) |

** David Anders was not credited with the Principal Cast in ''Four Months Later''. Dana Davis hasn't appeared yet, and neither has Sylar, so we have no actual confirmation about whether they are "officially" regulars or not.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 16:06, 30 September 2007 (EDT) |

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