Spoilers

Hey, thanks for all your recent edits lately! Just to let you know, I reverted the changes you made to the disambig pages. We won't add them while they're still spoilers. After those actors appear we can add them -- and we can also add their character names and more specific info. Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:50, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

• Oh, you're absolutely right, sorry! It's been a while since I read up on spoiler policy. I'll keep my spoiler-y edits to articles that are actually in the spoiler namespace in future. -Kon (talk) 04:53, 10 June 2015 (EDT)

simultaneous edits

Ha ha, it looks like we are editing the same things at the same time! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 13:54, 8 July 2015 (EDT)

Bot errors

• Are you seeing some of the errors the bot is making? It's duplicating "Episode:" in some places. (For example see [1]) (Admin (talk) 03:17, 17 September 2015 (EDT))
  • Yes, I started by inputting a list of pages that link to "Brave New World" (without the "Episode" prefix) for it to fix up, but I didn't account for the fact that there could be other instances of the phrase on those pages, but with the episode prefix as well. I also forgot to turn off the "miscellaneous fixes" option before I started. Sorry! I'll correct the errors it made and fix the rest of the pages that link to "Brave New World" myself, there's not much left. -Kon (talk) 03:25, 17 September 2015 (EDT)
    • No problem. Just making sure ya saw them. Thanks for taking the time to automate these edits! (Admin (talk) 03:26, 17 September 2015 (EDT))
      • Teething problems aside, I'm pleased to say that the bot has completed its job successfully! All direct links to "Episode:Brave New World" have been corrected. According to Special:WhatLinksHere, some links remain on talk pages via templates, but I think that will change once the cache updates itself. Thanks for being patient with me and letting me try it out, and if you need me to use it for another task sometime, don't hesitate to let me know. -Kon (talk) 04:44, 17 September 2015 (EDT)
        • Links on talk pages can stay -- it's not a big deal. Thanks for running the bot. Much appreciated! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 08:37, 18 September 2015 (EDT)

Tommy's last name

Hey. See discussion here. Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 08:32, 22 September 2015 (EDT)

Season Four Summaries

Hey, thanks for doing the summaries! Just a heads up though, it isn't supposed to be just word for word from the episodes. It's supposed to be a 2-3 paragraph summary of the main events. Not every little detail. ~~IHH—Talk 10:48, 23 September 2015 (EDT)

• Yeah, I'm trying to make the general length of my summaries not as long as the Season 3 summaries (since season 4 was only about 2/3rds as long as season 3), but still including all the important things that character did (so leaving out the stuff in the graphic novels or flashbacks). I have been known to go into more detail than necessary though, so if you think you can shorten them down a bit be my guest, I won't mind :) -Kon (talk) 10:55, 23 September 2015 (EDT)

Otomo

• Thanks for the spelling fix. I must have had sushi on the brain. :). (Admin (talk) 21:29, 4 October 2015 (EDT))

Image categories

Hey Kon, just wanted to let you know that you can use {{image-screenshot}} to assign categories to images when you upload them. For example, when uploading an image, adding {{image-screenshot|501=t|powers=t}} would automatically put the image in Category:Images from Brave New World (Heroes Reborn) and Category:Powers Images, as you can see I've done with File:Flying_boy.jpg. You can see all the possible categories you can assign with {{image-screenshot}} in the Usage section of Template:Image-screenshot. Hope you find this useful, and thanks for uploading all those images! --Radicell (talk) 16:27, 5 October 2015 (EDT)

That's very useful, thank you! I'll be sure to do that in the future. -Kon (talk) 16:33, 5 October 2015 (EDT)
