Not much to say about me. I set up the site and I'm a big fan of this show! Just here to offer a guiding hand and help keep the info fresh, the real praise for this site goes to all of you making contributions. You're the ones making this site so great! :)
If you want to reach me for anything, just post to my talk page.

Suggested Reading
- About this site. Some general rules of thumb and info about this site. Mostly a high-level overview.
- If you're going to be editing articles, definitely check this out beforehand. It'll give you a better idea how we do things around here. :)
Am I adding a theory?
When contributing to an article here are some red flags that should alert you that your contribution may in fact be a theory and needs to be placed in the Theories section instead:
- Your text includes words such as: probably, maybe, possibly, likely. If you're not sure something is true then feel free to discuss it on the article's talk page. If it's true then it can be added to the article. If there's not enough proof then it's a Theory.
...more to come...
To-do list
(If anyone feels like knocking these out first, be my guest. Otherwise I'll get to them)
Investigate creating "Episode" template to make adding episodes easy and uniform.(Thanks, Hardvice!)Rename category Heroes' Wiki Contributor to Heroes Wiki Contributor and update user pages with new category name to match the proper name of the wiki.(Thanks, Hardvice!)For any articles using HTML in them change any hardcoded references to http://heroeswiki.com/ over to {{SERVER}}/ so that the URLs will be relative.Create {{AfD}} template that automatically includes Category:Articles for Deletion and adds a warning at the top of the article to see the Talk page to comment on the nomination.(Thanks yet again, Hardvice! :) )- Reconfigure to run php4 as cgi and php5 as apache module (currently the other way around) since Heroes Wiki uses php5 and it's the most active site on the server. (This one's all me.)
Trivia
- My primary workstation runs Fedora Core 6 (a version of GNU/Linux). Oddly enough the new Fedora logo looks a little like The Symbol. Hmmmmm. I also have a MacBook Pro I use sometimes.
- Google flew me out to their headquarters in Mountain View to interview me.
- I own a Tivo and can't imagine how I got by without it for so long.
- I enjoy playing tennis (when it's warm out).
- The farthest I've ever been outside of the US was configuring a router in China over telnet. (I guess that doesn't count, eh?)
