Consensus = ?????

How many people voting one option constitutes a consensus? I think this would help our debates on ability names if we established some sort of standard like that. 2/3 majority? 75% maybe?--SacValleyDweller (talk) 00:35, 25 October 2008 (EDT)

  • Consensus means that everyone with a logical and non-biased opinion either agrees or at least does not oppose. That's what it is to me, there may be a more accurate definition. Consensus is not the same as a majority or super-majority. Those are aspects of a vote. (Admin 00:51, 25 October 2008 (EDT))
  • I believe you are correct in your destintion of consensus vs vote. Agreeing with, or not opposed to, as in "I can live with that" as a common stand on a subject.--Cúchulainn 03:33, 2 November 2008 (EST)

Featured Sites

Besides the new links at NBC.com/Heroes, 9th Wonders's link for Heroes Wiki now redirects to us, and it's a link that's at the top of almost every page they have. NBC's original Heroes Wiki has 9th Wonders in the sidebar as "Message boards". Since we can't claim 9th Wonders as our message boards, that's probably not the way to go; but since we are now highly featured in their links perhaps we should consider making 9th Wonders and NBC.com/Heroes featured sites so the linkback could be on our main page. Just a thought I had, that it would be a nice courtesy.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:38, 26 October 2008 (EDT)

  • I'd go for giving 9th and the official site more visibility here. --SacValleyDweller (talk) 00:53, 26 October 2008 (EDT)
    • I'm not sure if this is under negotiations or anything, but no one else has spoken up here about this in over a week, so I'm bumping this question.--MiamiVolts (talk) 16:39, 6 November 2008 (EST)
      • I'm bumping this one last time for discussion.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:17, 23 November 2008 (EST)

Other Heroes Wiki

  • Hi, I'm an admin in the other Heroes Wiki. I'm currently helping the other wiki to grow to its full potential. I'm writing here to ask if I could use your Portal idea for our Heroes Wikia Character page? And I won't copy information from this site. :). Destiny! 03:14, 3 November 2008 (EST)
    • I don't know where the portal here originally originated from, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a concept someone liked from another site and implemented it here, too. Our templates rely on specific extensions we use here that I don't think Wikia uses, so I wouldn't be surprised if they don't work over there. I don't think there's any real issue with implementing a portal over there as long as actual content isn't copied from here to there (since it'd be a violation of the license). That being said, keep in mind that Heroes wikia site gets very little traffic and is virtually unmaintained, so you might find a more collaborative environment here than over there. The wikia site is already ad its full potential. ;) There's a little bit of a learning curve here at this point, I admit, so it sometimes takes a little time to get a grasp of the different policies we have... but they've evolved over time in order to create a site that works very well if I say so myself. :) We also have a partnership with NBC now and many of the staff involved in Heroes actually frequent this site from time to time. Hope you stick around! :) (Admin 21:47, 3 November 2008 (EST))

Need help on a few questions. Can someone please help!

Hi I'm new to this Wiki talk, but I have been following Heroes since day one and I am a little confused anbout a few things and was wondering if someone could help me out? Am I understanding this correctly that next week will be the last episode for this season? If I am, then I undertsand why Heroes was cut short last season, but why are they ending it so soon this season? I would really appreshiate any clarification any one can give me!

Thanks.--Freakylady555 (talk) 01:36, 4 November 2008 (EDT)

  • I think that's just a rumor. Last I heard, the schedule for Volume 3 of Heroes is planned to go through till December. There is still potential for an actor's strike called by the SAG, but if that happens it will simply delay Volume 4 (Heroes as of January) as most of, if not all of, Volume 3 is already filmed. You can see the official schedule for the next three episodes of Heroes at NBC Universal Media Village.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:58, 4 November 2008 (EST)
    • Oh okay, thank you very much, I was worried there for a minute. I couldn't find the information anywhere. Thanks again, Freakylady555
      • They've just rapped up shooting episode 2 of volume 4 i believe, so volume three should be full lengthLilRebel616 12:00, 18 November 2008 (EST)

SAG talks

The SAG and AMPTP were negotiating with a federal mediator, but the mediator has given up on trying to reach a resolution. It is expected that the SAG will now call for a strike authorization vote. You can read about it at Reuters. I'm still hopeful that there won't be an actor's strike, and even if the authorization vote passes it doesn't mean a strike necessarily has to be called.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:21, 23 November 2008 (EST)
