This wiki is a XML full dump clone of "Heroes Wiki", the main wiki about the Heroes saga that has been shut down permanently since June 1, 2020. The purpose of this wiki is to keep online an exhaustive and accurate database about the franchise.
Heya, I was looking at the front page and I noticed that there aren't any of the fan discussion podcasts in the fansites directory on the main page. I was going to pop in the 2 I know of, but then I got an idea I wanted to run by you. Would it be okay if I made a separate directory similar to the fansite one, but just for podcasts? It would be nice to have them distinguished in some way from regular fansites, and if the Heroes fanbase ends up being anything like the ones for Lost or Alias, there's going to be a lot more than 2 podcasts by the end of the season.

Wikipedia (RE: Genesis)
Thank you for acknowleding wikipedia as the original source (-: MatthewFenton 12:33, 19 October 2006 (EDT)
Sorry for causing a ruckus over at Wikipedia. :) I'm trying to encourage people to replace the reprinted content with original content and new synopses will be written here and not reprinted. Collision, for instance, is an original synopsis. No point in having a site just reprinting all of Wikipedia. ;) Any other issues, feel free to let me know! (Admin 12:38, 19 October 2006 (EDT))
Categories
Any plans to use categories? Any particular objection to doing so? -- Hardvice 03:36, 20 October 2006 (EDT)
If no one else added them, I'm sure I'd end up adding them eventually. No objection at all to using them, if you want to add categories then go for it! :) (Admin 09:17, 20 October 2006 (EDT))
GD Library
The GD library is not completely installed for .jpg's. We can't use thumbs or galleries because it can't create the scaled images. The message it gives is "Incomplete GD library configuration: missing function imagecreatefromjpeg" (see image at right). It works OK for .png's, though. I thought it might be cool to put together a gallery of Isaac's paintings and of the places the symbol has shown up.--Hardvice 02:04, 22 October 2006 (EDT)
I probably missed it when I specifically compiled PHP5 for MediaWiki. I'll recompile PHP when I have a chance and include GD support this time. Thanks for the heads up. (Admin 02:06, 22 October 2006 (EDT))
Awesome. Thanks!--Hardvice 11:13, 22 October 2006 (EDT)
OMG
Did you see the preview at the end of the marathon last night?--Hardvice 17:18, 23 October 2006 (EDT)
No, I didn't catch it. I tend to not watch clips from upcoming shows so that I'm more surprised during the show itself. Based on your reaction, however, I can assume that they were pretty good. :) (Admin 17:21, 23 October 2006 (EDT))
Yeah. They did a two-minute preview from a bunch of upcoming episodes. There was nothing too spoilerish, but there were some pretty impressive moments. It's on Youtube if you get curious.--Hardvice 17:25, 23 October 2006 (EDT)
A Possible Site Logo
Went and photoshopped you a Lostpedia-like logo. Feel free to use it if you like it. Also, I don't have a ton of wiki experience but I'd be willing to help out with your little project - if you still need it, that is.--YoShIe 22:54, 24 October 2006 (EST)
Hi, YoShIe. If we could get a logo like that but at a higher resolution with ther name "HeroesWiki" clearly visible on the front cover then I think that could also be a good logo. I wouldn't call this my project since it's the really the community that helps build this site and make it what it is. :) Feel free to contribute any material you think would be helpful, I'm sure everyone will appreciate it. (Admin 23:07, 24 October 2006 (EDT))
I will see about something like that tomorrow. All I have time left for tonight is sleep.--YoShIe 23:19, 24 October 2006 (EST)
Heh... I know the feeling. Nice to have you here, YoShIe. Hope you have a good time! (Admin 23:21, 24 October 2006 (EDT))
Episode Template
This should be pretty easy if we use {{subst:}}. Just copy Better Halves and save it as a template.--Hardvice 19:29, 28 October 2006 (EDT)
Forgot to ask
Can you delete Hardvice/Main Page for me? We shouldn't need it any more.--Hardvice 01:35, 31 October 2006 (EST)
Hello, I love this place, it's such a great idea! I have built a fan site called HeroesAddicts at www.HeroesAddicts.com. Would it be possible to add it in the fan site list? If yes, I could definitely add a link to this page on my site. Thanks. -Psyko, HeroesAddicts.com SysOp
Sure, I'll add it for you. (Admin 14:23, 5 November 2006 (EST))
Thanks! I just added a link to this page on my site header.
Adding a german version
Hi, i've posted this already on the discussion on the mainpage, but i can't wait the answer ;-)I'm from germany and since the first episode a fan of heroes. I'd like to translate the heroes-wiki into german as soon as possible, because i've started once the translation of lostpedia into german and there was already thousands of information. The faster we get the possibilty to start this thing, the more easier it would be. At your question: Google-Translation works okay, but there are a lot of weird meanings coming out sometimes. For two short words like "turn left" it's okay, but a whole sentence...forget it ;-) Greetings --Bob 23:07, 8 November 2006 (PDT)
Hi, Bob! I'll setup a German version for you today as soon as I get a chance. Glad to have you here and good luck on the translations! :) (Admin 17:12, 8 November 2006 (EST))
Thx a lot! Sorry for the double post, but i was too excited ;-)--Bob 23:17, 8 November 2006 (PDT)
I have a question: The logo you'll take thats winning in the contest, it will be for ALL languages or should we design our own logo? In case, we all take the same, i'm gonna erase the contest or better, link them on your contest. --Bob 03:25, 9 November 2006 (PDT)
The logos will be the same across the wikis, so sure, go ahead and link to the main one if you'd like or just remove the link. I'll setup interwiki links soon so it'll be easier to reference back and forth. (Admin 21:29, 8 November 2006 (EST))
Okay, done. I linked the contest to the main one. --Bob 04:05, 9 November 2006 (PDT)
