Hi, thanks for fixing the missing categories in the [[flight]] images that I uploaded. Looks like the one I was missing was [[:Category:Powers Images]], I'll be sure to add that to any powers images I upload again. --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 22:24, 28 February 2009 (EST)

==A Spoiler-ish matter==
== Spam ==
''NOTE: I have refrained from using spoilers in this message.''


Hi Ryan, please do something, there's a lot of spammers and I can't block them on the wiki. Thank you --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 16:42, 6 January 2016 (EST)
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)
* Like white on rice! -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 19:40, 6 January 2016 (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 ==
== Re-spam ==


Hi Ryan,<br/>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 [https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:Nuke Nuke extension] to faster the deletion of spammers' pages. Thanks --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 01:24, 7 January 2016 (EST)
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)
: I couldn't do anything, they use your sleeping time to spam up! :-( --[[User:LIMAFOX76|LIMAFOX76]] ([[User talk:LIMAFOX76|talk]]) 06:45, 7 January 2016 (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)

***** 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==
== Refrences ==
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)

* 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]]'') ...

Thanks (See, only 1 sorry this time!) --{{User:Irony/Signature}} 11:24, 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 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.

Good call on the pseudo Daphne not being Daphne...the real Daphne showed up in tonights Target gallery. I will work on updating pics and stuff tomorrow on the gallery.

* Judging from last week's BTE and Nathan moving pics around this week (and moving pics from ep to ep), we probably shouldn't try to make the template look like the board. It's a board that keeps changing, and it's probably more trouble than it's worth. How about just a gallery? Or how about just keeping the images in the template nice and small as they are, but putting them in alphabetical order, with all the unknowns at the end?

== 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)

* 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)

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?

== Season Summary ==
yeah im still getting used to heroeswiki

lol
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 still dont know how to link things up
1) When I type "Noah Bennet/Heroes Reborn" it does not take me to the button that says "New season summary page"
--[[User:Skyeatsout|Skyeatsout]] 21:17, 4 March 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 ==

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 [[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.

Schedule:
*Week of March 20: {{epp|501}}
*Week of March 27: {{epp|502}}
*Week of April 3: {{epp|503}}
*Week of April 10: {{epp|504}}
*Week of April 17: {{epp|505}}
*Week of April 24: {{epp|506}}
*Week of May 1: {{epp|507}}
*Week of May 8: {{epp|508}}
*Week of May 15: {{epp|509}}
*Week of May 22: {{epp|510}}
*Week of May 29: {{epp|511}}
*Week of June 5: {{epp|512}}
*Week of June 12: {{epp|513}}

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)
* 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)
*** No problem. All done. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 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. {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 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. :) -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 10:04, 12 July 2016 (EDT)
**Awesome! I am seeing that part 5 comes out on July 20 {{User:Iheartheroes/sig}} 11:41, 13 July 2016 (EDT) https://www.comixology.com/Heroes-Godsend-5/digital-comic/376810

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)
Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:06, 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)

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

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)
