Here are a few links to get you started:

• If you are new to Heroes or Heroes Reborn, you might want to start at the New User Portal.
• If you're not too familiar with editing wikis, you might like to start with Help:Editing.
• If you already are familiar with wikiediting, you might want to try Help:Style.
• If you're ready to get started, Template:Todo lists some ways you can help out.
• Of course, if you have your own idea for adding a new article, that's great, too.
• Recent Changes will let you see others' contributions as they happen.
  • To make Recent Changes more useful for all users, remember to provide an edit summary in the "Summary" field before you save your changes.
  • You can set the wiki to prompt you for a summary in your preferences.
• When posting on an article's Talk page you should add --~~~~ or click the signature button.
  • This will add a signature and timestamp to the end of your comment so others can easily tell who posted it.
  • Any new sections on an article's Talk page should be added to the bottom of the page and not to the top.
  • When editing normal article pages, don't sign your contributions.
• If you have any questions or need any help, please feel free to leave a message for an administrator.
• You can also customize your user page if you like.
  • Additionally, if you would like to add any fan-made content to the wiki, please do so by adding the prefix User:Johngon/ to the page title when you create the page.

Once again, welcome to Heroes Wiki!

Adding new characters

• Hey, I see you've added several pages for characters from Chandra's list. Perhaps instead of making new pages for each, you could simply add them into a section on that page? It's likely we may never meet many of them, especially the deceased members. --ZyberGoat 23:36, 27 November 2006 (EST)
  • Fair enough... just found this wiki and wanted to contribute. Will edit after tonight's episode :P --Johngon
    • Personally, I don't really have an opinion on whether those characters each have their own page or not (though I don't see the harm in it...) But I do think that if there is going to be a page with a list of those characters, they should at least be separated into 2 pages: living and deceased.

      • The only time I would agree that they would have both a living and a deceased page is if they appear as a living character at some point... just my $.02

Creating new pages for unaired content

Please Please Please Please PLEASE do not create pages for characters, actors, or other things that have not aired. You can talk about them in the spoiler pages. Television is crazy and certain characters can be edited out before the episode airs. ---- 00:59, 30 November 2006 (EST)

• Eh. As long as it's in the wretched hive of scum and villainy called the Spoilers category, it's no big deal.--Hardvice (talk) 01:04, 30 November 2006 (EST)
• It's not really a bad thing to do as long as it's got the proper spoiler templates and such and is only being linked to from spoiler pages for instance. If the character is dropped or changed, we'll just change the article. :) We have articles on characters that never made it onto the air anyway, so we'd probably have an article for it, too.
