* That's a great point. We should actually update [[template:disambig]], then. Many disambig pages list things that don't have any articles. One of the first examples of a disambig page that listed non-articles was [[Kansas (disambig)]], which [[Talk:Kansas (disambig)|somebody opposed right away]]. We now have tons of disambig pages that list things that are not articles. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 17:25, 31 December 2008 (EST)

A Future Peter that died from the Shanti Virus??

I see that the page for Future Peter Petrelli (disambig) leads to three possible Future Peters. The one I am having trouble with identifying as a Future Peter is the one labled "Peter Petrelli, who was mentioned as having died from the Shanti virus in the Outbreak future." Now I know in Out of Time that Howard Lemay talks about Peter having been dead for a year, but I always thought that it was referring to his supposed death from How to Stop an Exploding Man, since he had yet to return home. Does anyone else think that as well? Or does everyone else believed that another Future Peter died from the Shanti Virus? Lennoncorleone 16:31, 3 October 2008 (EDT)

  • Lemay said that Peter died from the virus, and had his death certificate from it. Since Peter never died from the virus, that would mean that a future version from Peter (sometime after Peter went to the future) died.--Bob (talk) 16:46, 3 October 2008 (EDT)
    • Nice spotting that Bob. I had forgotten that Lemay had clarified that.--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:19, 3 October 2008 (EDT)

Outbreak Peter

Heh, I had a feeling that was going to be the case, which is why I didn't go change anything else in that vein. I have no real problem with it, but I'll say that it is technically incorrect by the definition we have stated right above it as to what the page is for.  ;) --Stevehim 16:23, 31 December 2008 (EST)
