* 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)

Tables of contents

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? --Radicell 05:22, 1 November 2009 (EST)

  • Sort of. To specify the width of the TOC, you have to use a TOC template. Try adding {{tocleft|100px}} to make a super thin TOC. Making it wider than normal (like {{tocleft|700px}}) 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'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. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 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 "" on a line by itself on the page.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:09, 3 November 2009 (EST)

Lost Page

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, TanderixUTCR

Images

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. It was only when catalyst said to me that they were not properly sourced that I remembered they even existed, so could you delete them for me. Thanks. Alastair.jpg, Johnny Foreigner.jpg, Molecular Recreation.jpg, Image:Robbie.jpg, Image:Prince.jpg, and Image:Help.jpg --mc_hammark 08:28, 1 November 2009 (EST)

  • I'll do it. --Radicell 08:44, 1 November 2009 (EST)
    • Done. --Radicell 08:49, 1 November 2009 (EST)

Bryan Spicer

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? - Jenx222 | U / T / C 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. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 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 - Jenx222 | U / T / C 11:50, 1 November 2009 (EST)

The page "Help:Consensus checks" doesn't exist but there's many links to it, will it be created or is it not needed? - Jenx222 | U / T / C 12:52, 1 November 2009 (EST)

Hi

I'm just here to inform you that I am not TheEvilnoob, Adamhiro, Xiaoyuo, Mdj, or Syral. Thanks for listening!. --Push Pipe 15:57, 1 November 2009 (EST)

  • Thanks for letting me know. Is there a reason I would think you were one of those other users? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 20:24, 1 November 2009 (EST)


Sorry To Bother You...

But I didn't fully understand the help on adding images to an article. You see, I just want to add images to illustrate my user page, but is there any way to copy images from Heroes Wiki and use them? Thanks for the help.--Hiroman 12:38, 2 November 2009 (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--Hiroman 13:08, 2 November 2009 (EST)
    • Never mind, all sorted! :-)--Hiroman 15:19, 2 November 2009 (EST)
