Vandal

Pretty self-explanatory issue.--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 10:39, 30 May 2010 (EDT)

• Also, User:Stiofanb keeps adding non-canon information to Noah Bennet's page and creating non-canon pages in the main namespace, despite a warning on his talk page not to.--Hiroman 13:28, 30 May 2010 (EDT)
  • Thanks. I don't think stiofanb is a vandal, just somebody who probably doesn't understand how things are done. Let me know if you see anything odd again. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 00:41, 1 June 2010 (EDT)
• Another one. She added some sort of advertisement to an article.--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 13:29, 12 July 2010 (EDT)
  • Got it. Thanks. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 15:28, 12 July 2010 (EDT)
• Yet another. It's that essay site again.--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 02:35, 19 July 2010 (EDT)
  • Thanks. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 15:55, 20 July 2010 (EDT)

Older Episodes

Remember when I said about going back and adding in the checklists for all the older episodes, well with the cancellation of Heroes, it seems like a good time to do it. As you can probably see from Iheartheroes recent edits, a quite a few pages may benefit from it. What do you think? --mc_hammark 08:39, 3 June 2010 (EDT)

• Well I am watching all of the episodes again with a friend. And during the fourth season, I took notes on most of the episodes. So I realized the other day while watching a couple that I could do it for them too. And I agree, pages may benefit. But what is left on my Notes section on my user page, is after everything and only a couple things weren't on there for each episode so its probably not that huge of a deal. But I do think the checklists need to be completed. ~~IHH—Talk 10:46, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
  • Agree. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:08, 3 June 2010 (EDT)

Character Histories

With Heroes cancelled and the graphic novels on hold, is it time to create the character histories for the fourth season? --Boycool Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream. The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned. The second mouse wouldn't quit. He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter and crawled out. Amen. 08:50, 3 June 2010 (EDT)

• I don't think there needs to be any considering that there isn't anything after Season Four so it would be pointless to have a history of Season Four when it is the last one (meaning present time). ~~IHH—Talk 10:46, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
  • I'm actually for creating the season four summaries for the main characters or the ones with previous season summaries. It'd be kinda out of format if each season has a summary, then a big list of the season four episodes. It would also be tidier and the page would have less subtitles. --mc_hammark 10:52, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
    • I'm all for it, it would also mean that if we need to edit the main page for each character it wouldn't get that little note saying how many kilobytes the page is. --Leckie -- Talk 12:10, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
      • But the reason there are those summary pages is so that pages can take in more Episode stuff. And considering there won't be anymore episodes, it kind of defeats the purpose. But I do see where you are coming from. ~~IHH—Talk 12:11, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
        • Yes, they were because there were more coming, but now we've got to look at it from a finishing point. We've got to make it more encyclopedia-like, so if this was an encyclopedia, it'd likely have a character summary for each season, you know? --mc_hammark 12:14, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
          • Not really. I'd like the most recent information on the page. Not a summary. ~~IHH—Talk 14:34, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
            • We need to be consistent. All the other seasons had summaries. --Boycool Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream. The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned. The second mouse wouldn't quit. He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter and crawled out. Amen. 14:40, 3 June 2010 (EDT)
              • I don't have a very strong opinion on this issue. However, my feeling is this: season histories are created to make room for new content. If there is no new content, then we don't need to create season histories. However, I wouldn't mind having some histories on pages that already have long summaries, like Peter's or Claire's. But I really don't think we need to archive the history of somebody like Lydia or Edgar, who only appeared in the fourth season. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 21:14, 3 June 2010 (EDT)

Patroller

If I may ask, what does one have to do to become a patroller? --Boycool Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream. The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned. The second mouse wouldn't quit. He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter and crawled out. Amen. 14:34, 4 June 2010 (EDT)

• Hey Boycool, if you look at Heroes Wiki:Patrollers it will give you a general overview. Generally if an administrator thinks your edits are good enough and you are qualified enough they will consider you for promotion :) Hope this helps :) --Leckie -- Talk 18:37, 4 June 2010 (EDT)
  • I look for three things in a patroller: proficiency in the English language, an understanding of how we do things at Heroes Wiki, and a good working knowledge of Heroes content. I usually promote patrollers at the start of a season, or just when we need them. For instance, if I'm noticing that edits are continually not being patrolled, I will promote a new patroller if one exists. If I anticipate an increase in edits, I might pick a few good users to be patrollers. At this point in time, I don't really see any need for new patrollers--we have very few edits on the wiki, there won't be much new content in the future, and we have a great crew of strong patrollers to cover what we do have. If one of those things changes, there could arise a need for more patrollers. But in the meantime, I don't think we need any more. That's not meant to be an insult or anything, and there should be no stigma attached to not being a patroller. It simply means we don't have a need for a patroller right now. However, if you want to be a patroller, you can always just act like one: a patroller's main job is to go through each edit on the wiki, and check for things like accuracy in content, proper English, and standard style. Hope that helps! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 19:08, 4 June 2010 (EDT)
    • Okay, thank you. :) --Boycool Two little mice fell in a bucket of cream. The first mouse quickly gave up and drowned. The second mouse wouldn't quit. He struggled so hard that eventually he churned that cream into butter and crawled out. Amen. 20:18, 4 June 2010 (EDT)

Inblackestnight

This user has repeatedly forgotten to use their signature, despite being reminded several times by multiple users. I know it's a somewhat minor transgression, but it'd be wrong for him to assume that the community will do all the work he chooses to ignore, and frankly, I'm getting a little peeved at the fact that he hasn't responded to any of my reminders/warnings.--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 15:22, 4 June 2010 (EDT)

• Thanks. I agree. It's not something I would block a person for, unless it was obvious that they were blatantly not following guidelines. It's annoying, but it's one of those things I think we just need to do some hand holding on. In my experience, users like this usually either catch on after a little bit, or they disappear after awhile. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 19:15, 4 June 2010 (EDT)
• Another vandal. This one's been blocked before and is back with a vengeance. Also, is it helpful for me to report vandals on your talk page, or should I just add an afd tag and assume you'll find out about them on your own?--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 22:22, 6 June 2010 (EDT)
  • Talk page works perfectly. I get messages to my email inbox and to my phone, which rocks. I'm not checking the wiki as often as I once did, so my talk page works perfectly. If you ever needed to get ahold of me privately, my email address is ryangibsonstewart at gmail dot com. Thanks, PJ. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 01:06, 7 June 2010 (EDT)

Part 8

Ryan, like everyone else, I have been waiting for Part 8 of Primatech files. I can't see why they would release it. Do you know more about it? As a former graphic novel artist and writer? I don't want to keep logging on to this site, hoping its been released and being disappointed. AS fun as it is talking with you guys, without new input, it's kind of repetitive.--Blood69 07:45, 6 June 2010 (EDT)

• I don't have any more information about the last part of From the Files of Primatech than anybody else does. I'm not sure when it will be released. If you don't want to log on, one thing you could do is to put a page like Graphic Novel:From the Files of Primatech, Part 7 or Portal:Gn15 on your special:watchlist. If your preferences are configured correctly, then you'll receive an email alerting you when any pages on your watchlist are updated. FYI, I'm not a graphic novel artist or writer and never have been. I wrote an iStory and I worked a lot with Heroes Survival. :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 10:51, 6 June 2010 (EDT)

Gulp Ninja

This user verbally assualted Adam Hiro (without any noticable reason) and then proceeded to condescend to another user who attempted to reprimand him for his actions.--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 00:58, 17 June 2010 (EDT)

• Gulp Ninja must be blocked--Adamhiro 13:16,17 June 2010 (LT)
  • Thanks for letting me know. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 16:04, 17 June 2010 (EDT)

Hey Ryan, someone has made an account using Adamhiro's real name and I believe it might be Gulp-Ninja since he was blocked. Just thought I'd let you know. --Leckie -- Talk 17:45, 19 June 2010 (EDT)

• Given that his last username was taken from something off the wiki, I wouldn't be surprised.--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 17:55, 19 June 2010 (EDT)
  • What user? -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 01:17, 20 June 2010 (EDT)
    • Never mind, I found it. That's an unacceptable username, in my opinion. I'll have him change it. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 01:18, 20 June 2010 (EDT)

User:GoToHeLL

Is this a valid username?--PJDEP - Talk - Polls and Opinions 16:17, 27 June 2010 (EDT)

• It's not a very nice name...but I wouldn't block it or call it invalid. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:27, 27 June 2010 (EDT)

Have Fun

I don't know when you'll get this message, but have fun camping. Enjoy your summer. See you in the fall. :) --mc_hammark 19:46, 27 June 2010 (EDT)

• Thanks, mc_h! This is my third year running the Scout camp. It's good fun! Have a great summer! :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 11:53, 30 June 2010 (EDT)

Can delete photos: Image:AngieMh.jpg, Image:AudreyMh.jpg ,Image:Destoyed the identity of.jpg ,Image:HarmonMh.jpg , Image:MishaMh.jpg, Image:RobertMh.jpg, Image:ScottContest.jpg, Image:ZachMh.jpg, Image:Three Sisters, Part 1.jpg And delete Graphic Novel:Three Sisters, Part 1 and Contest Issues-- Adamhiro 12:51 , 5 June 2010 (LT)

• No problem. I didn't delete the Three Sisters graphic novel page because that's not in your user namespace. If Sylar12 would like it to be deleted, he can ask. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 09:39, 5 July 2010 (EDT)
  • Sylar12 is my father.He has no need of that page.-Adamhiro 21:47 , 5 June 2010 (LT)

Spammer

Another one for you Ryan. --Leckie -- Talk 15:46, 16 July 2010 (EDT)

• Hi Ryan. It looks like, we have another one. -- Jan Rodrigo (talk) (contributions) 02:37, 19 July 2010 (EDT)
  • Thanks. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 15:55, 20 July 2010 (EDT)
    • And another one. --Leckie -- Talk 09:51, 23 July 2010 (EDT)
      • Got it. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 01:00, 25 July 2010 (EDT)

Just curious....

What did you mean by this on Felicia's talk page? I don't think we ever found out anything about her in the end.

Doesn't a glowing hand mean that she's got some sort of power? (I can't say much more because I know a little more about her ability from a GN creator.) — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 13:37, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

Yeah, that's a good suggestion. And if it's any consolation, we'll definitely be learning a bit more about Felicia very very soon... :) — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 14:11, 22 April 2008 (EDT)

-- User:Samuelstorey 21:45, 22 July 2010 (EDT)

• I can't remember. That was two years ago. I'm sure there's a conversation buried deep in my email somewhere, but I'm not sure with whom or what it really said anymore. Sorry. -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 17:25, 22 July 2010 (EDT)

Hi

Hi Ryan, I hope you're having a good vacation.
I joined the TEW, I actually want to contribute there as much as I can. It looks like there isn't much going on at HW anymore. Btw, I'm also giving classes now, having students... like you :)
There's something else, I wanna tell you. Could you take a look at the pages I made here, here and here. To the first one I intend to cast the role of NBC, as it was during 2006. Even if you hadn't much time, I would be very glad if you joined the group & see you there. You could warn me if I did anything wrong :)
Thank you very much :)
I'll probably see you at the TEW more :)
-- Jan Rodrigo (talk) (contributions) 02:36, 24 July 2010 (EDT)

• Cool. I don't have much time (or the best connection at camp) to check out the group in depth right now, but it looks like a really cool idea. Congratulations on the teaching, too! Good luck... :) -- RyanGibsonStewart (new comment) 01:03, 25 July 2010 (EDT)
