So it's been mentioned on other sites that Quesada and ''Alonso'' are named for [[Marvel]] editors Joe Quesada and Axel Alonso. Since his name is never seen on screen, is this reason enough to move the article? It's neat trivia, if true.--[[User:Hardvice|Hardvice]] <small>[[User talk:Hardvice|(talk)]]</small> 01:12, 11 March 2007 (EST) |

Alonzo or Alonso?
So it's been mentioned on other sites that Quesada and Alonso are named for Marvel editors Joe Quesada and Axel Alonso. Since his name is never seen on screen, is this reason enough to move the article? It's neat trivia, if true.--Hardvice (talk) 01:12, 11 March 2007 (EST)
- Hi. I think the reference to these Marvel Comics/X-Men editors is more likely deliberate than coincidental. So it makes sense that Alonso would then be the intended spelling of the agent's name too. On the other hand, creative intentions aside, wouldn't the character's official name be what actually makes it into the final script?
- Since we fans and viewers don't have the script on hand (unfortunately), the next/secondary source would be those who do have access to the script. In other words, the writers, the cast, NBC-ers and such folks who'd be in the know/loop. Still, if Heroes Wiki's guidelines for what makes acceptable content are like Wikipedia's (and I don't know if they are), then wouldn't published/citable/verifiable statements (or other secondary sources on record) have the most authority/weight on dividing fact from speculation?
- At the moment, I believe we have the official NBC Heroes website using the Alonzo spelling. I'd assume this was "more correct" unless we have another official source that contradicts or otherwise trumps it.
- Maybe for now, at the least, an Agent Alonso entry redirecting to Agent Alonzo could be made.
