Peter's amnesia

"Removed the peter theory - It hasn't been stated in the show he has amnesia (we only know through spoilers)"

Well, I haven't read the spoilers (Thanks alot for that), but it seems vaguely obvious at the end of the episode that he has amnesia, since he doesn't know who he is.--Tim Thomason 18:55, 25 September 2007 (EDT)

Sorry for pointing out the spoilers, but wether it's obvious or not, all he said was "I don't know." Being knocked out, waking up somewhere unknown, and having someone you don't know asking you a question wouldn't classify as amnesia. Amnesia is forgetting something you've known completely. --Riddler 18:59, 25 September 2007 (EDT)
Yeah, but being asked who you are, and not knowing the answer, is a standard television staple for amnesia. The intention of the scene is to show that Peter is in a strange place and doesn't know who he is. I agree it may be slightly speculative, but this is a theory page and all. Kind of like wondering if Kaito is dead or just severely, badly, injured (don't spoil me on that one if I'm wrong).--Tim Thomason 19:08, 25 September 2007 (EDT)
Well, saying "Peters amnesia" IS speculative. The right way to use it would be "Peter has amnesia" as the theory itself, then build off of that.--Riddler 19:42, 25 September 2007 (EDT)

Can we remove the "Elle" theory?

It's about spoilers. x.x--Riddler 18:33, 8 October 2007 (EDT)

  • Absolutely. Theory pages can definitely use outside sources, but they are not spoiler pages. Since Elle does not yet exist in the world of Heroes, there should be no mention of her on the page, or on any page which is not marked with a spoiler warning. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 18:37, 8 October 2007 (EDT)
  • Readded it, since Elle has made her shocking debut. </badpun> Thrashmeister 22:55, 22 October 2007 (EDT)

Too many theories...

Can something be done to clean up this theory page? I mean, yeah, Peter's a major character, and his power leaves a lot of possibilities. But the number and length of theories here is just crazy... By the time I get to the bottom of the page, I've forgotten all the stuff up top.

I've been trying to clean up some stuff here, merging duplicate theories and such. But it hasn't made much of a dent. Would people be okay removing some of the older, less current theories? Like the one about density manipulation, or whether he absorbed Eden's ability, or maybe the one about Ricky and the gang? I know they haven't been proven/disproven, but a lot of them seem like they never will be, and it takes way too long to find theories actually about recent events with the page as clogged as it is. ---Shade 14:46, 14 October 2008 (EDT)

Can I move the recent theories from the top of the page to the bottom, so the newer ones will be together? It would help a lot if everyone would follow a standard for adding them, so a person could just go to the bottom (or top) to see the new stuff. Lindsaynickel 00:44, 18 November 2008 (EST)

Should we remove any theories involving Empathic Mimicry?

Seeing as Peter's ability has changed, aren't these theories now invalidated?--Steelymcbeam 09:31, 18 February 2009 (EST)

I agree with this guy up here, archive it and delete it all. Peter has a new power now, or, if it's somehow the old one, let there be room for speculation and not random guessing. -+- Discipol
