Spoiler:Heroes

Have you checked out my recent edits lately? :) -- Tristan0709 talk 02:06, 1 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Cute. And I hate to be a spoilsport, but we really should remove false spoilers, even if they're a joke. It detracts from the real information...and not everybody in other countries even understands what April Fools Day is. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 07:49, 1 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Fair enough. Just so you know, my apology at User talk:Admin is directed at you and other administrators/patrollers as well. -- Tristan0709 talk 22:49, 1 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Thanks, Tristan. And please don't think that I'm taking anything personally or that I'm holding anything against you. I like to have fun as much as the next guy, absolutely. And I know your edits were in good fun--they weren't purposeful vandalism, and your excellent attitude following the corrections proves that you are didn't mean any harm. If we come down a little hard on April Fools edits, just realize that we're doing it less to make you feel badly, and more to discourage others to not get silly ideas. We have to remember that our site is global, and that there are some who either don't "get" April Fools, or who believe what's written because they are too young and can't discern truth from humor. So no hard feelings on either side. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:09, 1 April 2009 (EDT)
        • Of course, I completely understand. Thanks! -- Tristan0709 talk 23:16, 1 April 2009 (EDT)

Time manipulation or Time freezing?

  • Hey Ryan, I'm in North Korea right now on my way to the Philippines hehehehe

By the way, I was checking my e-mail and I just got an mail from Heroes Spoiler about an interview to Joe Pokaski and Aron Coliete saying that "Hiro can freeze time. That's it.". So shouldn't the Time manipulation page be undeleted now?. And they said he can only freeze time, which he can't reverse or slow down time, then should we still name it Time manipulation or Time freezing?--NiveKJ13 (talk2me) 06:05, 1 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I think that's exactly what we're saying. His power was partially restored. He can only freeze time. Baby Matt didn't give him a new power, he restored part of an old power. Even if Baby Matt restored the part of Hiro's old power that allows him to teleport, he wouldn't have the power of teleportation--that's a separate power. That's Rachel's power. Hiro doesn't have a new power, just one part of his old one. It'd be a very different power that Baby Matt had if he could suddenly grant new powers! :) By the way, discussion about time manipulation should probably go on Talk:Time manipulation so everybody can easily find it. :) Enjoy your vacation. Say hi to Kim Jong-il for me! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) APRIL FOOLS!

April Fools Day

Hi Ryan hoping you are well.Happy April Fools day :) Im not feeling well so im extra helping on the wiki today, I hope your happy about the abigail thing i found in COG ;) Gabriel Bishop 07:58, 1 April 2009 (EDT)

forget it

Why don't you stop deleting my stuff and put it in the proper place for me..thanks a lot.. --Bucklen62189 15:09, 1 April 2009

  • I don't know what edits you're referring to specifically. I'm not targeting you as an editor, and I don't distinguish "your" stuff from the stuff of others. Once it's on the wiki, it's up for editing by anybody. I don't always have time while editing to fix every page so it's perfect. I've found that in the past if I try to edit every page to perfection, I get very little done. If I leave it until I have time, I forget about it. That's what templates like the stub flag are for--so we can mark the articles as incomplete and come back to them later on. If you would like to move something that's in the wrong place into the proper place, feel free. If you're not sure where it goes, I always have time to explain to other users where something is supposed to go or how to edit. Let me know if you need a hand. Thanks! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:16, 1 April 2009 (EDT)

Wrong

This week, here's what happened ( ODI knows ): I opened edit box while I was uploading video on Youtube, around the same time as ODI was editing on Wiki. This stuff usually happens when episode ends because we are waiting to post new stuff like trailer in this case ....

I erased his link accidently. And I noticed it later. I didn't changed it to previous because when I checked ODI's blog post, he didn't had the video anymore because apparently it was deleted by video hosting. He usually stopped uploading videos year ago so I knew he will wait that someone uploads, so I kept my link ( to my post from Wiki ) because I already uploaded it on Youtube and had it on my site. There's no point pointing fans to destination without wanted content.

The same thing was done previous week, around the same time ( when episode finished ) just that time ODI changed my link. You can check it in history. He and I know this, was discussing on Twitter!

If you have more questions please email me on spoilersguide@gmail.com because I'm going to be out of the country starting tomorrow. --Matej 20:40, 1 April 2009

  • Thanks for explaining that Matej. I don't frequent the spoilers pages too often, so I don't know all the ins and outs of who posts, when, and what "politics" might be involved. I just saw that you had changed his link for yours--I suppose it was a simultaneous edit--and went on your page to just bring it to your attention. When I saw that it had happened previously, it raised a red flag for me. Thanks for explaining. My suggestion would be that when you're posting such items, you check to see whether or not you've accidentally erased somebody else's link. Then, if you decide that the link you have should be the one to stay, you might want to message that other person. In other words, if you accidentally erase ODI's link for your own, you might want to leave him a message on his talk page so that the issue is addressed. Otherwise, it looks like you're jealously trying to change his links for yours. Thanks for understanding! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 22:42, 1 April 2009 (EDT)

Sortnames for numbered characters

Hey Ryan. It's April, so archiving time, yeah? =) Anyways, I noticed that you changed the sortnames of DHS agents 1, 2, 3, and 4 and added the parenthetical numbers to them. However, I was under the impression that parenthetical numbers don't get included in sortnames. For examples, on Portal:Minor3, there are 3 emergency room doctors, none of which have parenthetical numbers in their sortnames. And on Portal:Minor6, the same is true with Mohinder's muggers. Has the policy been changed that we should include them, for purposes of, for example, not having a (III) agent sorted before a (I) agent, I assume? If that's the case I'll start fixing up the sortnames of the millions of characters with parenthetical numbers we have. Thanks. --Radicell 09:54, 3 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I noticed an issue with the Homeland Security agents. When the four agents were "straddling" two portals, DPL had a hard time distinguishing between them. Specifically, Homeland Security agent (I) and Homeland Security agent (II) should have been in Portal:Minor4 (at the time), and Homeland Security agent (III) and Homeland Security agent (IV) should have been in Portal:Minor5. However, HS agents 1 and 2 were in Portal:Minor4 and Portal:Minor5, and HS agents 3 and 4 were nowhere. (Does that make sense?) Ultimately, since they all had the exact same sortname, the the templates were not ordering them correctly when the four characters were split among two portals.

    I'm not sure if it's a permanent problems, or if it was something specific to just those four characters, but adding a sortname fixed the issue. Yeah, we should probably add the numbers for all those other parenthetically names characters. It won't be an issue until the characters "straddle" two portals, but we're probably better off fixing the sortnames now than later. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:28, 3 April 2009 (EDT)

    • Oh, so that's the only time when they cause a problem. It'd be nice if there was a sortname variable and a sortnametext variable, much like the link and linktext pair. Anyways, since there seems to be no workaround at this time, I'll start fixing the sortnames soon. On another note, did Julio Leal reply that email you sent him? --Radicell 03:26, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Re: Julio Leal. No. I'd say let's just go ahead and keep all the characters as one. It makes things much easier... I'll try emailing him again, though. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 10:28, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
        • So I actually just opened my email to write back to Julio. Lo and behold, there's an email from him! Funny how things work out like that. Anyway, the image we had wasn't of him, but of another actor (I'll see what else I can find out about him, but I know the other actor's name is Chase). He didn't mind having all the characters combined into one--or rather he didn't say anything about it, so I take that as non-objection. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:22, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

Heidi Petrelli

Right.. Is she divorced or separated fron Nathan? Because on Nathan's page saying "Ex-Wife" but on his info box saying "Separated" Which one is correct? Many thanks! Hopwas2007 05:23, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I don't think we know, do we? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 10:27, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Lol! Just that I dont want misleading fellow heroeswikiers (if u call it) thinking he is divorced/seperated. You know what I mean? Hopwas2007 15:27, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
      • I agree. Well, we know that they're separated, that's for sure. I don't think we know whether or not they're divorced. We should keep it to what we know. So on the page, I don't think it should say "ex-wife" since we're not really sure if Heidi is still Nathan's wife or not. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 15:33, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

Hiro's blog

Yeah, sorry about that. I thought that the page had to be fixed since it didn't come up on the screen correctly but I guess it was supposed to be like that. Once again sorry.--TedGordon 17:14, 4 April 2009 (EDT)TedGordon

  • It wasn't coming up correctly? What was wrong with it? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:15, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
    • What i meant was... I can't explain it. When it turned out like this I thought there was something wrong with it --TedGordon 17:21, 4 April 2009 (EDT)TedGordon
      • Is there any way you can take a screenshot of it and upload it so I can see what the problem is? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:24, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
        • It looked like... say for example your writing an article. And before you start the article you space first or indent the paragraph. Once you save it, on your page it looks like your words are in a dotted lined box. Like on hiro's blog when he writes his posts you'll see what Im talking about.--TedGordon 17:31, 4 April 2009 (EDT)TedGordon

Deletion

Hey Ryan, I was noticing that there are some pages the could use deleting (I posted on the talk pages on most of them). Just wondering if you could take care of that. Thanks, --Crazylicious 23:08, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Thanks for the heads up, Crazylicious. I think Miami is taking care of some of them. (Thanks MV!) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:40, 4 April 2009 (EDT)
    • No problem. Have a good night. :)--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:54, 4 April 2009 (EDT)

hey

I need some help, with my name thingy when i leave a change i just doesnt come up has a option, so when i went to change it i just put skyeatsout and now im just asking if i can leave that has my Signature im not sure if this happen with my desktop, im on my laptop right now --Skyeatsout 01:57, 5 April 2009

  • I'm not sure exactly what you're asking specifically, but I think you need some help with your signature, right? To get a signature, type four tildes ~~~~ or click the signature button at the top of the editing box. If you needs something more specific than that, please let me know. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 11:18, 5 April 2009 (EDT)

So...

What can you tell us about this anonymous emailer? Did they even tell you their identity? -- Tristan0709 talk 22:32, 5 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Oh yeah, I know who it is, and I've been emailing back and forth quite a bit with the person...but the person asked for anonymity, so my lips are sealed. Sorry! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:28, 5 April 2009 (EDT)

Hey Would Mom Be a nickname?--Skyeatsout 01:36, 6 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I don't know what you mean. Are you talking about the person who emailed me? No. But I don't think it's cool to try to guess who the person is or force me to give clues when I've already said I'm protecting their anonymity. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 01:43, 6 April 2009 (EDT)

Assignment tracker help

Hi Ryan! I created an assignment tracker for myself for Cockney Heroes, but my ability wont link to the correct page, I was wondering if you could help me. Also, Irony's AT also has the same problem. Thanks --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 10:36, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

  • How about using a redirect? I'll take care of it. If that doesn't suit your needs, let me know and we'll see if we can add code to the template. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 11:36, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

Talk 11:48, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

    • The redirects end up using invalid usernames (i.e. Gabriel Bishop is different from GABRIEL BISHOP, so we shouldn't do that. We either need to not use the template on those user pages or modify the template to work properly and not capitalize the name. An invalid redirect is just a crude work around that I'm not really comfortable with. (Admin 11:52, 9 April 2009 (EDT))
      • Ah, that makes sense. I'll work on the template later, probably tonight. Thanks for bringing that up, Admin. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 15:13, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Also is there any way to be able to change the colour of the info box on my user page? Preferably i would like it to be red and gold. I'm not sure if its possible so i am asking you.---Obelisk52 20:29, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Yes there is. Check out Template:User infobox#Usage for all the different available variables. Specifically, where you have | background color = #FFEBAB, change the #FFEBAB to either red or gold. Do the same for | blurb color = and | about color = . Here's the change (which I reverted already) so you can see what needs to be done. Let me know if you need more specific help... :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:16, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

Mutations

Hey Ryan, I just wanted to ask your opinion about this page. In your interview with Jim and Timm, they noted the mutations of Mohinder, David, and Elephant man and even joked at David's ability as rabies. I think it's time to separate the mutations from abilities and reclassify Mohinder's ability to Enhanced strength.--Riddler 15:27, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

  • No Mohinder's ability should not be reclassified because when he had the stable formula wash over him he lost all the aspects of it. The writers confirmed that he only has Enhanced strength. -- Obelisk52 20:45, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
    • That's exactly what I'm saying. The writers said he only has Enhanced strength, so his ability should be moved there, and the mutations should be noted elsewhere.--Riddler 15:52, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Also there is a discussion about this on Mohinder ability --IronyUTC CH 16:26, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
        • I agree...to an extent. I think because Mohinder's mutation was somewhat viable and gave him some pretty awesome power aside from his enhanced strength (to crawl up walls, renewed energy, the ability to create sticky substances from his hands, cocooning), that whole phenomenon needs to be documented. Simply because it was useful and Mohinder was able to live for at least four years with it, it is a bit different than the elephant man's mutation and David's mutation. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:20, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

Another question.

Sorry to post so much on your page, haha, but I have another question, I'm not sure if you or Admin would be better to ask. I went to NBC.com and went to the Contact Us link to ask about the Heroes Premiere Event, but I'm afraid that since it's automated that my question won't be answered. Do you know of a more direct way to get my question answered? This is what I sent them:

Hi, whoever may be reading this. Before the Heroes: Countdown to the Premiere, there was a contest on Myspace for "Who is the biggest Heroes fan?" I submitted a bunch of clips, and two were used during the fans segment at the event. I almost passed out when I saw myself on TV. The thing is, I was never contacted about it, and no one I know recorded the show, and I can't find it anywhere online... so it seems to have vanished from existence. Is there any way I can get a copy of the show or at least that segment so I can have it for myself? It would be absolutely amazing. My clips were the Phasing and Pyrokinesis clips. I just want a copy of the episode so I can prove to my friends and family I was on it. And since I was never contacted about my clips being aired, noone I knew thought to watch the Premiere Event, so everyone missed it. Thank you so much.--Riddler 15:55, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
  • Hmm, I'm not exactly sure what to do. I could send an email to Joe Tolerico...however, I'm very confident that the emails that are sent through NBC.com all get read...Regarding your specific request for a clip of you on television, I think I still have the episode on my DVR. My DVD burner isn't working though, so I really don't have any way of getting it off my TV that I know of (short of taking a digital picture of the TV screen, but ... yuck). I would hope that they will include the Countdown to the Premiere on the Season Three DVD. Beyond that, I'm not quite sure what else to suggest. :( -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:28, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
    • I got an auto-response from NBC warning me that not all messages are replied to, so I'm afraid that I won't get a response. If you could email Joe and it wouldn't be too much of a hassle, that would be incredible. :)--Riddler 23:39, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

Competition

Hi ryan can i premote a competition that me,Irony and Laughingdevilboy are doing for Cockney Heroe.I was wondering if you could help tell people on their talk pages about it.Thanks Gabriel Bishop 16:13, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

Oh, the cometition is here here --IronyUTC CH 16:37, 9 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Thanks for the link, Irony. And thanks for letting me know about the competition, Gabriel Bishop. It's a neat idea. I don't really feel comfortable promoting a fan fiction contest that has nothing to do with me on everybody else's talk page. Plus, that would take me a really long time to leave a message on everybody's talk page, and it would really be like spam. Have you tried promoting it at places like 9th Wonders? That might be a good place for you. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:32, 9 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Thanks for the tips, we hope you'll be entering it ;). --IronyUTC CH 06:29, 10 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Hey ryan please do you think you could enter the Competition, I know you have a great imagination and i feel your what this series needs. Reply on my talk page Thanks :) Gabriel Bishop 16:49, 10 April 2009 (EDT)

Speaking of red links.

I was just about to clear out a few when I noticed this - Gabriel Bishop/Telepathy. I haven't been able to find a single link to it other then the link on the current events page and the red links page. I was wondering whether it was added to a template but I can't find it there either. Wondered if you could have a look. Thanks in advance. --Steely McBeam - (talk) 00:44, 10 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Sometimes, after an article is deleted or moved, the red link remains in Current Events because the server hasn't updated its cache yet (categories store things in the server's cache). The red link should disappear from Current Events automatically after a few hours, or you can purge the cache to get rid of it (see Help:Caching).--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:02, 10 April 2009 (EDT)

Rolando Molino

Hey I recently created the cast page for him and was wondering what we do about conflicting names? He is listed as "Rolando Molina" on IMDB then lists alternate names including Rolando Molino. I've gone by the name given in the credits but what is usually done in situations like this?--Steely McBeam - (talk) 08:30, 11 April 2009 (EDT)

  • You generally should use the name used in credits. Other names should generally be put in the AKA section, and redirects can be created if needed. This is a good example of an redirect that should be created, since he's mainly known as Rolando Molina. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:35, 11 April 2009 (EDT)

Patrolling

is there anyway for me to become a patroller? i would really love to as i am nearly always updating and making good edits on pages and i generally add to the wiki if yes please reply Obelisk52 15:56, 11 April 2009

  • You're kind of new to Heroes Wiki. Usually, I like to promote people to be patrollers after they've shown some consistency in strong editing for more than just a couple months. Also, I like to see edits to lots of different pages. Many of your edits are solely on user pages. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that...but your last edit to a main namespace article was in March. My suggestion to you is simply this: stick around for awhile, and start editing the "main" wiki. Keep editing user pages if you'd like, but branch out into the main stuff, too. :) Keep up the good work, Obelisk! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:43, 11 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Hey ryan do you think i could be a patroller ? Gabriel Bishop 17:50, 11 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Gabriel Bishop, you'll need to work more on your grammar and English, first. For instance, in the sentence you wrote above, my first name should be capitalized since it's a proper noun. There should probably be a comma between the second and third words. The word I always gets capitalized. There is shouldn't be a space between the last word and the ending punctuation mark. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:53, 11 April 2009 (EDT)

Talk page question

Hi Ryan, I want to remove the competition for Cockney Heroes from the talk page to a brand new page, I know we are not supposed to remove things from talk pages. Can I remove it if it is not a discussion and clearly explain and link to the new page. Thanks --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 12:23, 11 April 2009 (EDT)

  • That'd be fine with me...but wouldn't it be easier to just have the competition listed in the talk page and the new page? The entries can go on the new page, and the talk page can link to it. That way, you're getting as much exposure as you can. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:33, 11 April 2009 (EDT)
    • So ryan do you think you could enter the comp ?. I would be honoured. Also i hope you and your family have a wonderful Easter and that you get to eat lots of Chocolate :) Gabriel Bishop 17:36, 11 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Thanks, Gabriel. Like I said on your talk page, I'm on vacation right now, and won't think about any kind of competition until next week...We'll see if my graduate courses don't get in the way of it next week. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:39, 11 April 2009 (EDT)

New Medical Condition

Category

Hey Ryan. Long time, no me asking you annoying questions (bit of a bad syntax but we'll let that slide). Anyway, Gabriel Bishop, LDB and I were wondering if we were allowed to have a category for cockney heroes. As you can see [1], another fan fic made by PinkKeith has a category. This category only has five pages, ours has considerably more, as you can see here, which is a list of all of our pages. The number of these are rapidly growing and with the competition we have already gor at least another 15 more. It would be a great help, thanks --IronyUTC CH 17:47, 12 April 2009 (EDT)

  • Hi, I also have a question about CH, so thought I would post here, I asked Miami and he wasn't sure, so I thought I would ask you and if you didn't know then Admin. OK here goes is it possible to move all our pages to either Cockney Heroes/ or User:Cockney Heroes/ from Gabriel Bishop's user space, as this would include all of us in Cockney Heroes. Thanks :) --posted by Laughingdevilboy

Talk 14:24, 13 April 2009 (EDT)

    • I didn't know that there was a category page for Mystic Emotion. All fan fiction pages should be put into either Category:User subpages or Category:Fan Fiction. (I'll move Pinkkeith's pages now.) Since the fan fiction category has only three pages in it currently, I don't think it'll get lost in there. However, you might want to think about sorting it under "C" for Cockney Heroes so it all gets sorted together. (Do this by typing [[Category:Fan Fiction|Cockney Heroes]].)

      As for moving all the pages into one user namespace, I think it's a good idea since there is more than one person working on the project. However, that's really a question for Admin. My opinion is that it's a good idea, but please don't take that as an endorsement. I'll support whatever Admin's decision is. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:58, 13 April 2009 (EDT)

SeeAlsoImages - introduce to the iStory chapters?

I started a discussion here, Template talk:Seealsoimages, that noone has either noticed or commented on. I think it would be helpful in keeping up with the growing iStory stuff, if we had a see also images cateogry for the iStory chapters like we do for Epis, GNs, and webisodes...having them all lumped within the Evolutions cat makes it very hard to find them when doing research. thoughts? --HiroDynoSlayer (talk) 04/13/2009 11:21 (EST)

  • I'll leave my comments at Template talk:Seealsoimages. Thanks for pointing me in that direction. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:08, 13 April 2009 (EDT)
    • OK, just finished making the seealsoimages pages for the three iStory volumes and populating them. Category:IStory Images. I walked through the Evolutions image cat, and pulled all of the ones that I could find, and also went back through the iStory chapter pages looking for any I missed. There are still probably some that have fallen through the cracks. Do you know who is the resident 'expert' of the iStory stuff? Someone we can ask to look through the three image cat pages, who can easily spot one that is out of place or missing? Other than that, they are done, and when the next one comes out, as long as the folks who capture the images put the new img-cat on them, we're good to go moving forward. --HiroDynoSlayer (talk) 04/14/2009 13:19 (EST)
      • I guess the expert would be me, though Radicell and Citizen have been helping some... anyways, it looks good. Nice work on adding the new cats. I'll check to see if any are missing, thanks.--MiamiVolts (talk) 13:40, 14 April 2009 (EDT)
        • Yeah, I follow them a little, but not like I do the epis, gns, and webis....so I just wanted a fresher and more familiar set of eyes to scan them, and make sure I didn't put a Private pic in a Agent category, etc... --HiroDynoSlayer (talk) 04/14/2009 14:59 (EST)
          • "Expert" is an understatement, Miami! You're the iStory god! :) The categories look good, HDS. Much easier to tell. An extra category never hurts, and it's actually very helpful. I was just able to browse the categories very easily and find a duplicate image, which I never would have found by looking through Category:Heroes Evolutions Images. Nice job! -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 19:40, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

New pages

I was thinking that on the victims page there should be a page for Angela's victims as she has quite a few also there should be a page for the victim's of some of the Level 5 escapee's especially Flint Gordon.Jr and Jesse's--Obelisk52 19:01, 13 April 2009

  • I don't have an issue with those. Generally what we do is begin the pages in the user namespace (something like User:Obelisk52/Angela's victims or User:Obelisk52/Flint's victims) and then see what kind of reaction they get. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:13, 13 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Also how do I create a nav-bar at the bottom of my User page for links to pages i have created?--Obelisk52 11:39, 14 April 2009
      • The easiest thing to do is to find a navbar you like, copy the code, and paste it into a new page in your user namespace (something like User:Obelisk52/navbar). Be sure to change any of the code in the new page so it pertains only to your page and not the old one. Lots of people forget to change the edit link. Let me know if you need more assistance with that. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 19:43, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

fix last name

Hey, Can you edit the pics I just uploaded that mention their last name...I thought it was 'Shore' but when I captured Chandra's file, it is spelled 'Shaw'. I can't edit pictures. I'll fix the text. --HiroDynoSlayer (talk) 04/13/2009 23:42 (EST)

iStory abilities

I think that there should be a separate portal for iStory abilities. The list is growing and they are not at the same standard as show abilities. Also, the gn's have their own ability portal, why shouldn't the iStories? --Elemental Manipulator [ U | T | C ] - When in doubt, ask BTE 09:15, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I agree with you. I think there's already a discussion about this...Feel free to post your thoughts here. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 11:17, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

New Pages?

How do i create new pages (disambiguation ones, in particular...)? I was thinking there should be disambig pages for "emission" and "manipulation" abilities... --Peter 11:07, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

  • There's already a manipulation disambig page. The easiest way to start a new page is to click on a red link--which you can obtain by linking it somewhere, or by searching for the page. See Help:Editing#Adding New Pages for details (and let me know if you need me to clarify anything). If you create a page that has "(disambig)" in the title, the editing page will have a button that will give you the template needed for the correct disambig page format. Try clkicking on emission (disambig) to see what comes up. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 11:22, 14 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Thanks so much! I made a Emission (disambig) page but I just have one question/problem: when Manipulation is searched it goes straight to the disambig page but when Emission is searched it just shows the search's hits.. How can it be changed/fixed? --Peter 12:16, 14 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Never mind i figured it out! That help page is really useful (and helpful)! --Peter 12:19, 14 April 2009 (EDT)
        • Good, I'm glad you figured it out and that the help page worked for you. I don't think the help pages are used enough, so I try to point people there. However, I have a pretty good understanding of the wiki, so I don't always need to refer to the pages. Is there anything you think needs to be added to the help pages? Anything that needs to be clarified in any way? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 20:12, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

consensus checks

Just a thought, why donw we try out your new way of conscenus checks on the sand mimicry and bloody acidity pages? I think this could help :) --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 05:43, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I'm piloting it at Talk:shockwave emission. People didn't seem to be jumping out of their seats to try the new method, so I didn't want to inundate the wiki with a completely new methodology all at once. But if others think it would help, we can certainly try it. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 08:33, 15 April 2009 (EDT)
    • I noticed straight after I posted lol. It does seem thought on sand mimicry there is not too many new names, same with Blood acidity. Just one question, when the names have been whittled down, will it go to the other method as in if one person says to keep the name and 10 say no have a different one we keep the name, or will it be majority rule? Oh one last question, how will we/you decide what names should be put forward, will it be the two with the least opposition, or just those with no opposition, or names say with 4 or under names for opposition? --posted by Laughingdevilboy

Talk 08:50, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

      • Part of the concept of consensus is that people are in 100% agreement, or at least that 100% of people don't oppose. So anything that has any reasonable opposition at all is "out of the running" so to speak. Check my discussion at talk:shockwave emission--I know it's a bit long, but it really explains the process for how we'll do it. Basically, any name that's been considered will be a valid choice...until somebody opposes it. If all the names are opposed, then it reverts to "Gordon's ability" or "Mary's ability", which nobody can oppose since they are technically correct terms. But if there are a few valid terms that nobody has opposed? Well, it's hard to say exactly what will happen, especially since this is such a new method. There might be one clear "front runner", or there might be an overwhelming amount of support for one name. Or maybe if there are a few valid names that nobody opposes, we can take a vote. There are a few ideas, but it's one of those things that we'll have to see what happens when we get there.

        I'll work on the consensus check later tonight when I get home... -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 15:21, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

Mutiple Accounts

Hey RGS, I think there is a group of accounts made by the same user. They are (I think, Laughingdevilboy pointed it out to me, I'd noticed but no tthought anything of it), 1) User:TedGordon 2) User:Gordonfamily:Katrina 3)User:Gordonfamily:WilliamBehr 4) User:LucasTelekinesis. I'm not sure if I'm right but I think it needs to be looked into. Thanks --IronyUTC CH 20:54, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

  • All I can do is ask. I don't have the ability to check IP addresses or anything like that. I'll leave a message for Admin, though. Thanks for the heads up, Irony. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:06, 15 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Thats My Job :P --IronyUTC CH 21:08, 15 April 2009 (EDT)

Easter and CH

Hey Ryan. Im hoping you and your family had a wonderful Easter and got loads of chocolate.Do you think you can eneter in the comp, i dont want to bother you but i just wondred. Also how did u get to be in the graphic novels ? anaway enjoy the rest of the holidays :) GB Gabriel Bishop 14:58, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

  • For the competition, what exactly do I have to do? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:40, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Its simple all you have to do is create a Chracter And And a ability in your namespace then let us judge :).For more info look at User:Gabriel Bishop/Cockney Heroes/Competition. thanks :) Gabriel Bishop 16:49, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
      • So I have to create an entire page for a character and an entire page for an ability? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:50, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
        • Yes but if you win any of the prizes then it will be moved to my namespace to save you space :). You dont need much on the ablility pages apart from pic,What it does, how far you can use it :) Gabriel Bishop 16:56, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
          • I'll do it, but that sure seems like a lot of work that you're requesting of others. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:16, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
            • Thanks Ryan and we only want to do this for the fans since we cant write Graphic Novel's/Webisodes for it :).The fans seem to enjoy it :) And thanks again . Gabriel Bishop 17:18, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

Acidic Blood Argument

Is there anyone you could email to find out what Mary's ability was supposed to be? Either Tom Inkel or Siya Oum (the artist of Exodus). Thanks! --Peter 15:47, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

  • I don't have contact information for Tom Inkel. The interview went 100% through Joe Tolerico. I could email Siya. I'll also email Bill Hooper. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:41, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Thanks very much! The talk page is starting to get out of hand and personal... --Peter 16:47, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
      • There wasn't any hint of the ability in the novel, so I wouldn't be surprised if the novel's artist and writer don't know about it. If you could ask Joe Tolerico to pass on our question, that would be the best bet. If you would rather wait till after The Agent concludes and use the question with others we might have for a second interview, that's another possibility.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:57, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

evolutions abilitys

  • I think that graphic novel should have a higher rank then the istories because it ties more thing with the show itsef, or at least there sholud be a vote for the users to decide --Cj31094 16:56, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
    • Personally, I disagree. A lot more time, money, thought, and manpower goes into creating the webisodes and any live videos, including much of the Heroes Evolutions content. The iStories, which are really part of the Evolutions content, also have a heck of a lot of planning that goes into them, and they're currently at 86,000 words, written on 321 single-spaced pages at 10-point-font. (Did you check out those elaborate diagrams and charts at Interview:iStory?) In any case, feel free to add to the discussion at Talk:Portal:Abilities#Powers from iStories. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:21, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
      • Just out of intrest, how was the switch in rank decided? --IronyUTC CH 15:42, 17 April 2009 (EDT)

Heroes Interactive

Thanks for continuing to do the interactives. It's much appreciated. Did you record the 1961 episode during mountain or central time... it looks like you chose mountain but noted central...--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:50, 16 April 2009 (EDT)

  • No problem. Sorry I'm not always on top of reporting them...but at least they're archived. I always record them during mountain time so I get the messages from 11 pm to midnight. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 23:52, 16 April 2009 (EDT)
    • I don't think you need to apologize for the delay, but thanks for fixing the timezone. I was about to go do that when I saw you already had. :)--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:01, 17 April 2009 (EDT)

Webby Award Nominations

Have the interviews been up long enough on the sitenotice? I was considering noting there that we can now vote at http://pv.webbyawards.com/ for the Webisode Series The Recruit to receive a Webby Award. Voting ends April 30th, 2009.--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:13, 17 April 2009 (EDT)

Hi Ryan would you be able to check these new pages and tell me what you think of them please Angela's Victims, Flint's Victims thanks if you can. No worries if you can't -- Obelisk52 21:19, 17 April 2009
