Potentially offensive username.
Hey Miami, a new user signed up under User_talk:Dildo, personally I'm not offended by it, but I can see that others could potentially be. I've left a message on his talk page about said problem, and thought I should give an Admin the heads up. --Steely McBeam - (talk) 07:04, 1 May 2009 (EDT)

Valerie/Victor and Body-sharing couple
Hi, I`ve just read the last chapter of the istory and it look kind of obvious that Valerie and Victor were the same couple.
First, when Linda-Leona thumb at the Pretend Siamese Twins, they start talking about Valerie and Victor. Then, after Anna learned thair names, she stopped refering them as the pretend Siamese Twins. And it looks kind of obvious there can`t be two couples of power Twins.
In the following istories, they`re never mentioned before, and in the clossing chapter they told us Valerie and Victor never stopped been together (literally).
I`ll stop editing those pages, but please someone consider what I`m saying. It`s just confusing the istory readers.--Jmfdr 16:59, 2 May 2009 (EDT)
- Obvious to you, maybe, but to me it's not so obvious. Besides that rather vague finger point, I don't see anything connecting them together (pardon my pun). The body-sharing couple walked through each other, which is more a phasing-type ability. Victor and Valerie have a different ability to send things to each other. It is not specified that Victor and Valerie ever walk through each other or become conjoined, and not everyone is mentioned in Anna's description of who is in the cellar (Doug from chapter 9 is not mentioned in chapter 10, but returns in chapter 12). I think Ryan is going to try and get some clarifications for us, but until it's confirmed they are the same people, they need to be treated as though they are different.--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:16, 2 May 2009 (EDT)
- Valerie and Victor are TWO people, so it's possible that they can have TWO abilities. Or maybe the phasing or shifting ability is a variation of the other. And maybe the clossure of the istory where they said that Victor never left Valerie side, it may be a pun to the phasing or walk through each other ability.--Jmfdr
- Both Valerie and Victor have demonstrated the same ability to send things to each other. Valerie sent Anna to Victor. Victor sent Rachel to Leona's/Linda's warehouse. It is conceivable that they are the same two people, but it's not confirmed.--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:31, 2 May 2009 (EDT)

New Idea
Hello
Check out my talk of a games page on Ryan's talk.
Good eh!
Please give feedback thanks.
--Danko 13:04, 14 May 2009 (EDT)
Sorry. But also thanks, it looks great! User:Danko/Suspension
--Danko 11:59, 15 May 2009 (EDT)
Congratulations
MV you should be a patroller you are very helpful
Thanks --Danko 12:32, 15 May 2009 (EDT)
Also can you see if you can find cool Danko pics for my homepage preferably with a gun,
Thanks --Danko 13:00, 15 May 2009 (EDT)
- I'm already an administrator, but thanks. Maybe this photo would work for your page?--MiamiVolts (talk) 13:14, 15 May 2009 (EDT)
Deletion (III)
I don't know how to actually nominate a page for deletion, but hey. Is it really necessary for there to be a page dedicated to occurrences of rape in Heroes? --Lolwut
- I agree a page for rapes is not necessary. We have Women in Refrigerators for that. You can mark the page for deletion by putting {{afd}} at the top of it.--MiamiVolts (talk) 16:16, 15 May 2009 (EDT)
- Sweet, cheers --Lolwut 16:48, 15 May 2009 (EDT)
Admin suggestion
Hello
- Can I suggest that user: Irony be recommended to become an administrater. He is very helpful, he will answer and assist any queries you put to him. He is a patroller at the moment (a very good one I may add) but I believe and I am sure others will as well that his work rate and attitude on Heroes Wiki merits an administrater place.
This is just a suggestion, it will be your decision, I am just casting my vote.--Danko 16:51, 18 May 2009 (EDT)
- Thanks for your suggestion. If we decide to add more administrators, we'll take your suggestion in consideration.--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:11, 18 May 2009 (EDT)
DanPetrelli
Miami there is a new user called DanPetrelli and he keeps making pages in the mainspace. He has already ignored a warning. Please may you sort this out or Block him for a small time period. Yours Sincerly Gabriel Bishop 17:39, 18 May 2009 (EDT)
- I just left him a warning. Anthony had asked him nicely.--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:58, 18 May 2009 (EDT)
New users
MiamiVolts if your theory is correct and these new users are after you then there are two important things you need to remember:
- Show no fear. These users will feed of your fear and may seek to terrorise you futher, so not be afraid.
- Share your situation, do not make this situation just your burden, make it the burden of all Heroes Wki users. These people may take on you but they won't take on us all. If anything happens tell us.
Good luck Miami, there are bad people on the world, keep calm let Admin deal with them and improve your home/computer security.-- By Danko CH 07:18, 24 May 2009 (EDT)
- Thanks, Danko. I think I'll be okay. :)--MiamiVolts (talk) 10:24, 24 May 2009 (EDT)

Ellen
Hi, I was going to create Ellen however I am confused as to what it is. Is Ellen a reference to only Leona or organistion or is it the name of the undergraound railway (if so is that classed as a place, location or thing). Thanks --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 17:38, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- Ellen is the name for the underground railroad. Leona started as just her--L.N. (Linda Niles), and her trucking business. Next, Victor and Valerie joined the mixed, and then the circus got started. Rebel's others teams have also helped. If you want to work on an image, it needs to be a hammer with four stars at diagonals.--MiamiVolts (talk) 18:31, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- I'll work on an image right now. Any color specifications? Also, does it matter how many points there are on the stars? (I want to try to make it look somewhat like a quilt pattern.) -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 20:48, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- Check it out... -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:57, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- Sorry, didn't get to reply till now. In chapter 7 of The Agent, Rachel sees the Ellen symbol crudely scratched on a wall in the plant nursery of the abandoned office building. Later, in chapter 8, she also spots it traced in the dust on the side of a truck used to help them escape from the building, so perhaps a black outline on a white background would be appropriate?--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:02, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- Looking at your image now, I think we should use a 5-pointed star since LAWR has five members and cause I doubt they traced such a complex star symbol.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:05, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- I've updated the image based on the information, and added a better hammer outline. Feel free to revert or improve it.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:43, 26 May 2009 (EDT)
- Is Ellen classed as a group, place, location or thing? --posted by Laughingdevilboy

User Gabriel Bishop is considering leaving Heroes Wiki, please add your signature to this petition in an attempt to convince him to stay. User:Danko/GB'sPetition

Sorry about these messages I'll leave the whole thing now and btw Witchy left a rude+ insulting message on my talk page
- Looks like you got yourself involved in a months-old argument with Witchy. I would just ignore it and leave it alone. Thanks for letting us know, though. Let me know if Witchy does any vandalism, but please don't taunt him further.--MiamiVolts (talk) 16:33, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
Witchy2006
I think we need an admin to handle User:Witchy2006 because it is getting out of hand --IronyUTC CH 16:20, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
- I saw what Witchy2006 left. He was responding to Danko's well-intentioned but misguided comments. If the situation worsens, let me know, but I think we can just let is go for now.--MiamiVolts (talk) 16:35, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
- Okay, the problem I had was with the so-called "metaphor" on his page, that could be considered quite a rude and threataning thing to say, personally I don't mind it. However, what I do mind is that he basically called me reacist by saying I only favoured Gabriel Bishop and Danko because they are from London --IronyUTC CH 16:38, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
- He may have replied to Danko's well intentioned comment but the way he reacted should not be allowed, this I find unacceptable, he could have simply said that happened months ago we are over it. I think he should be blocked immediately to stop any undue abuse to be given to Gabriel, Danko or Irony. --posted by Laughingdevilboy

- I did leave it already, but what did Danko do? Qouted me here to make me look bad...argh! I'll leave it alone now, but if I hear anything about me here again...we'll see. I've said that last time when I completely left the Gabriel Bishop argument...see what happened after someone started to touch it again?... --Witchy2006 17:19, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
- Thanks, Witchy, please just let it go. I don't think Danko had any ill intentions.
- --LDB, if Witchy wants to remove comments from his own page, he can do so. Although it's better that he archives his page, he is free to edit it as he pleases. Also, if he wants to undo his own comment he made on User talk:Danko/GB'sPetition, he can do so.
- --Danko, the link you changed the quote to goes to your userpage and not your user talk page, though I think I have already read what was said on your page. Witchy2006 received an e-mail because he has his options set to receive e-mail notification when someone comments on his page. Also, please remember to add your signature with timestamp.
- --Irony, I don't see anywhere where Witchy2006 is accusing favoritism. Can you provide me the diff link?--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:45, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
- Here, starting from *cough* *cough* favoritism *cough* to the BTW about the metaphor thing... --IronyUTC CH 18:55, 27 May 2009 (EDT)
- Ok, I see where you are pointing to now. Thanks. I still think think we should let the issue rest and not stir the pot anymore. But if Witchy returns and continues the argument, please let me know.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:00, 27 May 2009 (EDT)

- I do have a sense of humor. Hell, I purposely got myself banned from 9thWonders.com because I thought the people over there needed to lighten up. Trolling and bypassing censors on forums can be hilarious sometimes, but vandalizing a wiki, something viewers consult when they need the information, isn't the same thing. It stays like that and it affects the image of the wiki. He didn't even have the common courtesy to revert his edit. That's another thing; what's the point in vandalizing a wiki if someone can just revert your edit? And this is a serious wiki, so this kind of stuff isn't needed or welcomed here.--Citizen 23:38, 14 June 2009 (EDT)
- I agree that vandalism isn't welcomed. Though, it was only one edit which undone by someone else within a couple hours, and DalenCaan13 didn't try to re-add it. Like I said, it would be ok to leave a note about it on DalenCaan13's user page, but I think he already understands. See also the "assume good faith" help.--MiamiVolts (talk) 04:20, 15 June 2009 (EDT)
- Guys I'll try an find a link (checking his contribs) but Dalek Caan also edited Peter's victims, i'm not sure if that's as bad though. -- By Danko CH 14:58, 15 June 2009 (EDT)
- He did edit Peter's victims, I patrolled and undid as 1) I wasn't sure if teleporting Matt to Africa was classed as a victim (this has been discussed and turn out true. 2) He added lollollol on it (he was probably just showing he thought it was funny, though inappropriate on a manipage). I also patrolled his Elle's victims edit with pikachu, but he later added again (I patrolled though don't know if what he put was correct, he put Elle when she lost control of he ability). Anyway I do not feel these are grounds to get really annoyed at. He has made two edits that may have annoyed people, there has been a lot worse in the past. Judging by his contributions he doesn't come on here often so I don't see any problem. --posted by Laughingdevilboy

Is it possible to make an image link to a page? If so, how can I do it?--Catalyst · Talk · HL 21:42, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
- Yes, and there's a template that does that for you. See template:Imagelink for information. If you don't understand how to use it, let me know and I'll try to help you get the hang of it.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:07, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
- when you type in the text, how is it supposed to look? Because I'm not seeing anything--Catalyst · Talk · HL 23:40, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
- The imagelink template takes an image and makes it so it links to an article when clicked instead of the image itself. Check out Category:Season One Episodes for several good examples. If you're still confused after checking the code on that page, let me know.--MiamiVolts (talk) 03:12, 6 July 2009 (EDT)

1000 days
Did you know today is Heroes Wiki's 1000 day anniversary? --Boom D 83 23:27, 5 July 2009 (EDT)
- Is it? I'm more looking forward to the 3 year anniversary myself.--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:31, 6 July 2009 (EDT)
Rachel Mills
Hey. I was just editing the characters from The Agent istory and all I have left is Rachel. However, her page is far too long and my computer lags whenever I try to edit it. So, I was wondering if you could either try to shorten her page by either getting rid of unneeded detail or by creating an Agent history, similar to the Season One/Two histories that the main characters have? Thank you. Josh Korolenko.
- Thanks so much for your help with those summaries. Regarding Rachel, I agree that her character summary is rather long. I think a separate subpage with her history would be okay. I think we can split off her Season 3 history into a separate page. We'll need to do that for the other characters as well. I've gotten the page started. Let me know if you still have trouble editing it.--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:21, 7 July 2009 (EDT)
Histories
As you may have seen, I;m blitzing the season three histories at the moment. I'm just checking I can do them now - I saw you created Rachel so I assumed this was the time - this is ok, right? Thanks --IronyUTC CH 10:58, 7 July 2009 (EDT)
- I mainly did Rachel's since her page was so long it was hard to edit. However, it's mid-summer now so I guess it's the right time.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:14, 7 July 2009 (EDT)
Sylar
Hey i noticed than someone messed up the sylar page really bad. instead of talking about the abilities he had, it just says flight. someone should change it immediately!--I.absorb.abilities (talk) 14:17, 8 July 2009 (EDT)
- It appears that you're the only one who edited the page. You removed the closing curly bracket (}) from the call to Template:Sylaracquired when you added flight directly to the page instead of the template. Also, please note that there was a comment that asked for people to not add flight as it is speculative (he could be using TK and not Nathan's ability to fly). PS: I undid your edits so the abilities should again be listed.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:28, 8 July 2009 (EDT)
Noah's pics

.

.
Hey. I noticed while I was doing Noah's season three summary that he is the only character that has pictures on his actual bio (season summaries). I think this is kind of strange and was wondering if we could do this for every main character. The pictures could show key moments in their historys. I have included possible pictures as examples for Hiro and Claire. I just feel that if Noah has pictures, other central characters should have them too. :) Josh Korolenko.
- That picture probably shouldn't be there. I'm not opposed to it for a single picture, but for it to be a general policy you should discuss it first on the community portal talk page. For multiple pictures on other articles, the standard practice is to make a gallery.--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:17, 11 July 2009 (EDT)
Categories
Unused categories has some that can be deleted. --Boom D 83 18:06, 12 July 2009 (EDT)
Sorry to be a bother
Could you please tell me how to make a navbar for characters and abilities, like the one all heroes characters/abilities/items/place/groups etc, have? I would like to use it for the fan created series my bro and I made. Chronicles. Thank you Miama, :) AJ
- Basically, you make an article called "User:AgentJordan/Navbar" or similar and edit it to contain the links that you want. Then, you add it using template inclusion to each of your articles by adding "{{User:AgentJordan/Navbar}}" at the bottom of each page. If you have trouble or are confused, let me know.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:59, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
Hi Miami, as I have been creating crew pages recently I noticed some inconsistencies between different portals and navbars. I noticed some portals and navbars included the persons role in Heroes, here for example, whereas others did not include this information, here for example. I do think for portals such as other roles and doubled up portals such as hair and makeup should have the inclusion of the job role but navbars are cluttered with this information and I feel it is unnecessary. What I wanted to know is can I change this or should I bring this up on the community portal? Thanks for your time --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 17:06, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
- I think the job titles were left off some the portals and navs, like effects, because some were rather long and cluttered them up. If you want to add the job titles to other portals and navs, you could discuss it on the individual portal's talk page. I think the main thing we have been keeping to is that the portal and its nav should be arranged similarly. If the portal has job titles, the nav should too; or vice versa.--MiamiVolts (talk) 20:20, 17 July 2009 (EDT)
As you've probably seen
I've created a navbar for the Chronicles abilities, thank you for your help with that. I will be creating one for all my characters and would like to know if there is a way to edit them without them going to recent changes, because last time, as you have probably seen, my navbar adding clogged up a lot of room. Any words of advice? :{ AJ
- When making an edit, you can click the 'Show preview' button instead of the 'Save page' button. Previews are not saved, so they don't show up in recent changes. However, they do allow you to see what your page will look like.--MiamiVolts (talk) 05:36, 18 July 2009 (EDT)
Likeness Of?
I was just wondering for some characters, like Sparrow, Abigail, Lee and other characters that have been drawn/based on the likeness of real people, we could add that to their page instead of just their notes, like mention it instead of "PORTRAYED BY:", put something like (for Sparrow as an example), "LIKENESS OF: Kat Purgal" or "BASED AFTER: Kat Purgal", something along the lines of this, any thoughts on the matter? AJ
- I think the notes/trivia is the correct place for that. I'm not certain the sidebar is the right place for that info. Perhaps you could get more input on the community portal.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:08, 18 July 2009 (EDT)
Hi
Hi Miami, I have asked Ryan this, but he is too busy to help me and wondered if you could help. Is there anyway you can confirm that that this IMDB page is for Jamie Maxtone-Graham and that this one is for Scott Steele also that this one is for Joey Watts. Also can you confirm if this is for Angela Gurule and that this is for Dave Snyder. Thanks in advance also could you tell me on my talk page so I can add the credits as soon as you confirm :) If you cannot confirm these I will have to search the internet :) --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 10:59, 20 July 2009 (EDT)
- They look like they could be right, but as none of them list Heroes in the credits, I'm not sure. I would recommend searching the internet for their webpages if you can.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:51, 20 July 2009 (EDT)
Cockney Heroes Deletion
I have removed all links to the pages nominated for deletion, some still have dpl created links and the current events page linking to them. --posted by Laughingdevilboy Talk 09:17, 28 July 2009 (EDT)
- Thanks, LDB. I just finished deleting those Cockney Heroes pages.--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:14, 28 July 2009 (EDT)
