Page Adding Checklist

So I was thinking of somehow doing a checklist of things that need to be done when a new article is added. For instance, when somebody adds a location, they should update Portal:Locations and Template:Location. When somebody adds a Graphic Novel Character, they should update Portal:Graphic Novel Characters and Template:GNcharacternav ... You get my point. Any thoughts on where such a checklist might go? I was thinking one of the help pages, unless you had a better idea. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 08:51, 1 January 2007 (EST)

  • Sounds about right. Help:Editing has a (small) section about adding new articles that could be linked out to something like Help:New article checklist. There's already a smidge of info on adding a new episode which could be moved into the new article.--Hardvice (talk) 11:26, 1 January 2007 (EST)

Integrating Story Arcs

  • I had some ideas on how we can integrate some information about the story arcs. One thing is that Season One is getting a bit unwieldy. Maybe we can break it into individual articles for the arcs (like [Season One:Are You on the List? or something) and summarize the arcs on the main Season One page. We can also use the arcs to break Portal:Episodes into subpages, which we'll have to do sometime soon.--Hardvice (talk) 19:18, 2 January 2007 (EST)
    • I love it! I've been wanting to do that since I first read about Heroes, even before I ever caught an episode. (Yes, I'm a latecomer to the show - I've actually still never seen Genesis all the way through.) I especially like the idea for the portal page - makes the most amount of sense there. As for the Season One page, I kind of like that it's a list of all the episodes, albeit a bit long (and growing). Splitting the eps is a bit of dangerous ground - it's not really canonical, and there's no guarantee that eps will continue in arcs as such ... But I say let's go for it - we'll cross problematic bridges as we come to them. I'm not opposed to changing the layout of Season One - just not sure it's the best place for it. Let's try it an see... - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 19:29, 2 January 2007 (EST)

References Split

Speaking of splitting portals, I was thinking the Portal:References might need to be split soon. Maybe a simple subcat like "Movies" or "Comics" or something. Too soon? - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 19:29, 2 January 2007 (EST)

AOTW Template

Nice job! That should also make things easier if we ever have to protect the main page.--Hardvice (talk) 15:26, 3 January 2007 (EST)

  • Thanks. I just wish there was some more information we could throw in there. ---- 15:27, 3 January 2007 (EST)

PNG

  • You'll be pleased to know that it looks like I fixed the png thumbnail issue where it'd end up distorted and in black and white. (Admin 20:00, 3 January 2007 (EST))

Themes, Hank, Lisa

Good work tonight. Even if it really is early morning. I need sleep, but I'll be back to work on the recurring theme pages. ---- 03:36, 4 January 2007 (EST)

Wow, y'all were up late last night! Great work - some really good changes! - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 06:55, 4 January 2007 (EST)

PM

  • I wonder IF this work It's my 1st time Sending a Message I'm wondering IF this is the correct way.
  • Just want to say Thanks for The advise and Help on this N00b. How do I align my Sig to the Right?
    ~ ~ ~ ~ Red = 12:30, 14 May 2026
    • If you want to have it automatically align it, just add the colons to the text you typed in Special:Preferences. But it would be better to put a <br> before them and put the tildes immediately after your comment, and not on the next line ... that way, you still get a line break but it doesn't break the formatting for other people's comments.

      In other words, to get the signature you're using now, change the nickname field to "<br>:::: ~ ~ ~ ~ [[User:Red|Red]] = ". Then, instead of putting it on a new line, put it right after your comment, like this: "comment~~~~" It will auto-insert the line break

Sources

  • Help:Sources Doesn't Tell me How to use History tab only Talks about type of Sources.
    ~ ~ ~ Red = ~~~~~
    • I was linking to Help:Sources to explain why some things like Niki's power, etc., don't get added to articles. As for the Diff/Hist rollback, it's an admin-only feature. You're better off just recreating the edit. You can click a version in History, click edit, and click save, but it will undo all subsequent changes. Again, it's better just to redo the edit manually.--Hardvice (talk) 23:48, 4 January 2007 (EST)

Comic Book Guru Needed!

I understand you have a greater depth of knowledge about comic books than I do. Am I right that the image of D.L. outside the jail is referencing a comic book hero? I feel like there's a picture of Spider-man or Superman or Batman sitting in a similar fashion on a gargoyle, or on top of a building. I'd like to add it to references, but I'm not sure if it goes on Marvel Comics or DC Comics. Help! - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 20:48, 6 January 2007 (EST)

  • You see similar images in both Spiderman and Batman. --Ted C 11:40, 9 January 2007 (EST)

Delete pages

How do I nominate pages for deletion? On that other site, all you have to do is add a [[template:delete]]. ---- 01:06, 9 January 2007 (EST)

I've been tossing mine in the Category:Articles for Deletion up till now, with the hope that someone with Admin rights can take a look at it. --Orne 11:04, 9 January 2007 (EST)
That's the right spot. You can also just talk about it on the discussion page. Another good spot is on Heroes Wiki:Administrator Portal. - RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 13:33, 9 January 2007 (EST)
