*** I agree too that only demonstrated abilities of Heroes: Survival characters should be in the mainspace. However, I think this ability should be considered demonstrated because it's listed on a character confirmed to be maintained by the iStory writer and there are examples listed from John Mulligan's bio. Syn Anders's bio from Habbo was used to list examples for [[empathic manipulation]] when that ability was first listed. I see this as the same situation.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 23:56, 19 December 2009 (EST)

****So you're saying that the controller of the HSG character is a deciding factor. Personally I don't see why it would matter. I mean, examples of memory theft and silicon manipulation were also given in the bios of [[Miles Lecomte]] and [[Mykah]]. But those abilities don't have pages, since there weren't examples ''in the iStory''. I don't see how John is different, aside from the fact that he is controlled by an iStory writer, which I don't believe should be considered when determining this. --[[User:Radicell|Radicell]] 03:47, 20 December 2009 (EST)

Policy

Okay, what happened to the policy of only creating powers that were demonstrated in the iStory? --Radicell 20:27, 19 December 2009 (EST)

  • I'm with you there. I like this power and all, but if it hasn't been demonstrated then it doesn't deserve a page. -Vampirate68 | Talk | Contribs | 20:59, 19 December 2009 (EST)
    • I agree. There was some discussion about this here. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:10, 19 December 2009 (EST)
