The activatingevolution.org stuff

• Sorry about the activatingevolution.org stuff. I was a bit overzealous there, I suppose. (Walters 09:43, 7 March 2007 (EST))
  • Hey, no problem! :) The site is a little disappointing, they could have done much more good with that site, but including a practically unmaintained wiki is a bad idea and they're just letting it flood the Heroes universe with inaccurate and incorrect information.

Heroeswiki in Portuguese

• Hey Admin, how are you? I'm Scaico, a great fan of Heroes here from Brazil and i'm wondering if is it possible to get a PT version of the Wiki. I already got some friend who are willing to help with the translations of the articles already created and the creation of new articles. You can catch me on MSN at: scaico@gmail.com . Thanx and Hugz, (Scaico 13:39, 9 March 2007 (EST))
  • Thanks for that. My fault I didn't checked it first. I noticed you have no Portuguese-Speaker burocrats yet. Any idea about when you're gonna get some? What are the requirements? Hugz, (Scaico 13:51, 9 March 2007 (EST))
    • Once the Portuguese site has more activity and needs an admin, I'll set someone up as one there. There's not a whole lot that really requires a dedicated administrator while the site is small, but as it gets larger it helps. Generally I'm looking for someone who's a reliable contributor, comfortable working with MediaWiki, and also understands English well so that all admins across the different language wikis can communicate with each other easily. In the meantime if anything needs administrative attention over there, feel free to let me know. :) (Admin 14:02, 9 March 2007 (EST))
      • THanks for the info. I'm working on the wiki right now, creating some pre-definitions for translating articles. I've been SysOp of LostPedia PT for about 7 months and was willing to make a PT version of HeroesPedia. I'll help as much as I can, with my friend Jean Goés. I'll be sure to contact you if i need anything that i can't do. Thanx for your time, buddy.
        • Oh, excellent. So you have plenty of experience. I'll definitely keep you in mind when setting up an admin for that site then. (Admin 14:24, 9 March 2007 (EST))

Suggested mediawiki plug in

Hey Admin.. I noticed you've got the parserfunctions and stringfunctions mediawiki extensions intalled. Perhaps you might consider using Winter (short for Wiki Interpreter), which is useful for producing more complex logic than the string and parser functions allow. I wrote the extension so i'm very familiar with writing WinterScripts and also I could add Heroes Wiki-specific improvements if needed. Anyways just a though :) --Frantik (Talk) 19:11, 9 March 2007 (EST)

• Thanks, Frantik, I'll check it out. It saw it supports for loops which is something I've thought would be useful for a while. (Admin 22:22, 9 March 2007 (EST))
  • Yeah.. loops would be cool especially for the minor character pages.. adding a new character and reformatting 4 pages of tables is no fun :( hehe. Plus I was thinking the random number generator would be useful for the new "did you know" box. --Frantik (Talk) 01:40, 10 March 2007 (EST)

An Area for Descriptions & Links to Heroes Fanvids

• Hi Admin(s), I have seen several creative and very humorous Heroes fanvids on the net, but I've noticed that there is no place on this wiki that lists & describes the videos. For instance, there is a fanvid of a Mohinder video montage with the Jem theme song, "Them", which is very funny. I want to start a wiki page dedicated to cataloguing such Heroes fanvids. Where in our wiki is the best place to do that, and how would I create a portal icon for it? Thanks!. (AlexDo 15:41, 13 March 2007 (EDT))
