Of course. Well, my suggestion would be simply '''Activation'''. I'm not sure of any adjectives we could add to it that would be nonspeculative, but '''Activation''' by itself would suit the ability fine, imho. {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 22:02, 23 March 2009 (EDT)

*I agree that Matt Jr.'s ability should be named '''Activation'''.  As Hiro said, Matt Jr. touches things and they 'go', meaning they turn on and activate.

***...Not funny? {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 22:04, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**Activation sounds good --[[User:Gibbeynator|Gibbeynator]] 22:04, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**It can't be activation. The TV needs electrical power to turn on--something that Matt's ability provided along with 'activating' it. --[[User:Formless|Formless]] 22:58, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
*** It also appears to be an indefinite energy supply as none of the toys stopped doing what they were doing during the duration of the show. --[[User:Formless|Formless]] 22:58, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**** Hey! Who deleted my comments? --[[User:Formless|Formless]] 22:58, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
***** I don't think it was done intentionally; looks like an intervening edit got lost when multiple people posted simultaneously.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 23:02, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
* My suggestion is Jumpstarting.--[[User:Dylankidwell|The Empath]] 22:06, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
* I personally didn't really hear anything in the episode that could be used as a canonical name for this ability without coming off as pretty silly since they were more or less nicknaming the ability jokingly.  I think we're going to have to hope for some kind of assignment tracker entry or something before we're able to legitimately rename this.  ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 22:08, 23 March 2009 (EDT))
*I like "Activation" or "Toddler Touch n Go", rofl. I think they did say activation once though....--[[User:PRKO|(P)uerto (R)ican (K)nock(O)ut]] 22:10, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**I'm fine with anything that isn't "Matt Parkman, Jr.'s ability". I'm going to watch the episode again to see if I can find anything that can be used to identify this ability. I would really like to see this page renamed to either '''Activation''' or '''Genesis''', but that's just me. --{{User:Bender/Sig}}
** Going by what we know so far about his power "activation" fits best. That said, however, next episode (or GN) more light will probably be shed on this power and we'll have to change the name again. --[[User:Peter|Peter]] 22:15, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
*If we are to consider the 'joking' names for the abilities, Genesis has my vote.
*Another suggestion: '''Tactile activation'''? Clarifies that Baby Parkman's abilities are channeled through touch. {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 22:20, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**Why is '''Genesis''' considered a 'joking' ability. The definition of it is: '''1.  The origin or coming into being of something'''. It works with Hiro's powers coming into action as well as with the electronics. Plus, it was mentioned in the show.(http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/genesis) --{{User:Bender/Sig}}
*** Hiro was making a joke, comparing it to the [[memoryalpha:Genesis Device|Genesis Device]] in Star Trek which "creates life from lifelessness."  ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 22:23, 23 March 2009 (EDT))
**** How about motion to the [http://jackiechanadventures.wikia.com/wiki/Talismans#Rat motionless]. --[[User:Ironwolf8|WOlf]] 15:54, 27 March 2009 (EDT)
* Please don't call it "Touch and go".  :)--[[User:Cro Magnon|Cro Magnon]] 22:25, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
* I checked the episode and I didn't see/hear the word "activation", so unless there happens to be consensus it's not really a term we can use at this point.  ...and consensus on ability names is usually very difficult.  ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 22:25, 23 March 2009 (EDT))
** You're right Admin, I just thought the name sounded cool, it's also the name of one of my favorite bands. --{{User:Bender/Sig}}
* Here's a tidbit for ya, it also deactivates. He turned on the TV, touched it again, and turned it off. Also, when he activates something, it remains activated; constant touch is not necessary. So "activation" isn't good, since he also "deactivates". --[[User:PRKO|(P)uerto (R)ican (K)nock(O)ut]] 22:26, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
** Touche. Then I guess we're stuck with Baby Parkman's ability... {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 22:27, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**Wait, hang on. I was under the impression Hiro was the one turning the television off again and again? Can I get some clarification on that? {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 22:28, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
*** I think Baby Parkman turned the TV on then hiro turned it off then the baby turned it on again hiro unplugged it then the baby turned it on again then turned it off again while it was unplugged, well that's what i think happened.--[[User:Icykidd|Icykidd]] 22:50, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
**** Either way, the toys are left on; which brings us back to my original point. --[[User:Formless|Formless]] 23:27, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
***** How is the fact that the toys were left on relevant? "Activation," or any derivation thereof, does not suggest a temporary incitement. "Activating" a credit card does not mean you can use it only right after you activate it. "Activating" an account on a website does not mean you can use it only right after you activate it. Same thing with Matt's ability. I fail to see how the toys being left on is relevant to the discussion. {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 00:12, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
****** Maybe it should be about technology like Micha's after all if he can activate a t.v what other electrical things can he activate '''Adz'''
* I think "genesis touch" is the best name we have. I also think Admin is right in that the name was used jokingly, but that it does apply (though only as a description).--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 22:38, 23 March 2009 (EDT)
***I would go with "Touch and Go" just like we had to go with "Bliss and Horror".  I actually kind of like the name anyway... :) --[[User:Action Figure|Action Figure]] 00:08, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
*I definitely think that '''Genesis''' is the best name since it was mentioned on the show and many people seem to agree. Rather than coming up with something out of thin air (like '''Activation''') we should stick to the script and do it by the book. {{User:themunchkym|themunchkym}}
*I also think "Touch and Go" is a suitable name. The article itself mentioned that is what Hiro called it. Doesn't that make it canon? --<span style="font-size: 10pt; font-weight:bold;"></span>'''[[User:Elemental Manipulator|Elemental Manipulator]]'''</span> [ [[User:Elemental Manipulator|U]] | [[User_talk:Elemental Manipulator|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Elemental Manipulator|C]] ]'''</small> - <span style="color:green;">When in doubt, ask BTE </span> 00:23, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
**I don't think the issue is whether or not it's canon (it most certainly is), but whether or not it's a valid name in and of itself. I mean, it was obviously not used as a serious name for the ability. {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 00:25, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
*Given that we have witnessed Matt Jr. use his ability to enable the existing functions of objects and people (a television set was made to display images; a former time manipulator was able to freeze time), I propose that the ability be temporarily entitled "functional enabling" or "functional activation." --[[User:Jeffrey the Red|Jeffrey the Red]] 00:38, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
**That's actually pretty good. Maybe '''functional genesis''' as well? So that it has a basis in canon? {{User:Thrashmeister/Autosig}} 00:48, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
***Personally I like Genesis Touch as a descriptor. Genesis was mentioned in the episode, while touch describes how it is used. [[User:Bob1519|Spencer]] 01:29, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
*** That's still a very made up name. We can't apply non-canonical words like "functional" just because they look nice. There has to be either a basis in canon or it has to be a common term that legitimizes its use. Hiro's reference to Genesis was more of a sci-fi reference. They used "Touch and Go" much more frequently. I wish there were some way to use that as the basis for the name, but I don't think that would work too well. ([[User:Admin|Admin]] 01:32, 24 March 2009 (EDT))
I actually think '''Touch and Go''' is the best name for the ability if we are trying to move up the ladder. It's probably going to be the most searched for term when folks are coming to this site wanting to read about this particular ability, and is in league with names like [[Bliss and horror]]. Now, for those not liking calling this, consider wording the introductory lines thusly: "'''Touch and Go''' is the term used by Hiro to describe the toddler [[Matt Parkman Jr]] in relation to his strange ability." Phrasing it that way does not claim that we know more than Hiro does (Which would be implied by the other sugestions). --{{User:SacValleyDweller/sig}} 01:36, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* Yes it may have basis in <b>canon</b> but as Admin already stated it just doesn't work as an ability name. I hate having <b>soandso's ability</b>, but in this case there isn't really another option which is correct.--{{User:Steelymcbeam/sig}} 04:15, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
** I don't think "'''Touch and Go'''" is any stranger than "'''[[Bliss and horror]]'''". -- <span style="font-size: 10pt; font-weight:bold;"></span>'''[[User:Elemental Manipulator|Elemental Manipulator]]'''</span> [ [[User:Elemental Manipulator|U]] | [[User_talk:Elemental Manipulator|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Elemental Manipulator|C]] ]'''</small> - <span style="color:green;">When in doubt, ask BTE </span> 01:41, 25 March 2009 (EDT)
User:Shadowulf1 09:31, 24 March 2009 (EDT) Activation sounds good to me; plz just nothing dumb like '''Touch-and-Go'''-- that would be ridiculous, and it would take literal ability-naming too far...
* Hey, if baby Matt also deactivates objects, his ability shouldn't be called "Touch and Go". Because he can stop what he made work. How would you name his ability then? "Touch and Go, Touch and Stop"? You know, I prefer Activation only because I can't see any better name for it. Once we find it, we'll change it. And now... It's called now MPJ's ability, but it's difficult both to write and to pronounce. Maybe Activation for now? --[[User:Altes|Altes]] 09:37, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* I personally prefer "Activation", "Touch-and-go" seems to be a silly name that only makes sense when you consider the only known holder is a baby.  Activation can encompass both electronics and suppressed abilities.--[[User:Falrinn|Falrinn]] 11:36, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* I'd like to put in a vote for '''Energization'''. Going back to what Formless said, his ability seems to provide the energy needed for the toys and things to move. Plus it could have given Hiro's biological mechanisms the kickstart they needed to restore his ability at least partially. --[[User:Joker_the_Wild_Card|Joker]]
* How about Touch Activation? The touching seems to be a key part of the process. --[[User:RedScharlach|RedScharlach]] 20:25, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
*I can live with '''Activation'''. Don't call it '''Touch and Go''', that's like calling Peter's ability; '''Ability Copy & Paste'''. --[[User:TheFandango|Fandango]], March 27, 2009, 23:37 (EDT)
* '''Activation''' does not include the deactivation aspect of Matt Jr.'s ability. So I would suggest the name '''Dynamic activation''' which includes both activation and deactivation. --[[User:Valoo|Valoo]], April 21, 2009, 10:33(EDT)
I would suggest the name '''Empathic Activation'''. I think that it properly explains the nature of the ability. Activation is not descriptive enough since we know the ability depends on Matt's mood. -- [[User:God|God]]
* That name has already been suggested and declined on the consensus. --{{User:Laughingdevilboy/signature}} 10:14, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
 
== How he got it ==
 
Apparently the second eclipse gave powers as well as took them away: it gave Junior here his power.--[[User:WarGrowlmon18|WarGrowlmon18]] 00:48, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* Should a section be added under the character picture that says which eclipse they started showing their powers? It seems to be an important turning point within the series. There is the "Genesis (Volume 1)" eclipse, the "Generations (Volume 2)" eclipse, and the "Villains (Volume 3)" eclipse. Only one known person developed abilities right after the generations eclipse ([[Adam Monroe]]), but several gained abilities in the first and third ones.--[[User:Bob1519|Spencer]] 01:40, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
** There are many characters which we don't know about when they manifested their abilities: Angela, Arthur, Bob, Elle, Meredith, Flint etc. Thus we have no eclipses to describe for them.
 
== Consensus ==
Ugh, here is the part I hate. --[[User:Piemanmoo|Piemanmoo]] 01:22, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* I think you should have presented the arguments instead of calling for a consensus check, which doesn't really help us cause it's already stated above that we are already divided. Choosing a name doesn't happen by vote and doing this check in such cases just tends to make concrete that divisiveness as it encourages people to line up which one they prefer without a reason.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 04:34, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
** Well said, Miami. The point is not to find a majority, but to find a complete consensus (or pretty close to it). Voting doesn't get that job done. Everybody agreeing on one name--or at least not opposing a name--is the ultimate goal. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 00:57, 3 April 2009 (EDT)
*** In fact, maybe that's how we should be doing things--instead of finding consensus ''for'' a name, maybe we should see if there's consensus ''against'' a name. For instance, there are one or two names on this page that I would oppose, but most I'm fine with. My guess is that when it comes down to it, there are a lot of people who would be fine with a couple of names on the page. If instead of asking people what name they ''do'' want, and we ask people what names they ''don't'' want (or which ones they're opposed to), we might be able to find consensus a little easier. We're casting a wider net with what seems like more choices. For instance, there might be a name that is the second choice for a lot of people--most won't "vote" for that name with the way we're doing things now. It's rare that I see somebody put their name more than once on a consensus check. And visually, it would be a lot easier to tell who opposes a name rather than who is "for" a name. That's really what we're looking for--any opposition and things that will stand in the way of a name, not knowing which pet name everybody things is the best one. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 01:03, 3 April 2009 (EDT)

# It'll be the most searched for term, and is the closest thing we have to a canon name at this point. --{{User:SacValleyDweller/sig}} 01:36, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
# It's just as good as naming a power "freezing", "bliss and horror", or "lightning".  Its what it was called multiple times throughout the episode, and "genesis (device)" is not only a reference that seems to be going over most people's heads (its a JOKE people), but it would get confusing what with the volume and episode of the same name. --[[User:Action Figure|Action Figure]] 04:19, 24 March 2009 (EDT)

# --{{User:Steelymcbeam/sig}} 04:15, 24 March 2009 (EDT) We simply don't know enough about the ability nor a canon name or description which can be used as the basis for a name.

# I have nothing against the other names (I personally LOVE 'Touch and Go'), but policy is policy and we simply do not know if a canonical name will arise. I say we give it some time and change it once we think that ''Heroes'' isn't going to name it. Touch & Go FTW! Also, Activation doesn't work cuz he does more than activate, he deactivates. --[[User:PRKO|(P)uerto (R)ican (K)nock(O)ut]] 14:35, 24 March 2009 (EDT)

# This one seems most logical at the moment. The ability will most probably be elaborated on soon enough, till then just leave it and wait for a canon.
# I vote for this because even though they called him "Baby Touch and Go", they also noted that when he was sad he made things stop.  Thus it's the only logical name falling under the naming conventions. --[[User:Crazyaspie|Crazyaspie]] 15:06, 22 April 2009 (EDT)

===State Control or Status Manipulation ===
# I think this name fits the theme of the ability thus far, he is able to modify the sate of an object, such as on, off etc. This could also include Hiro's power, he turns it on and off, doesn't power it up like including teleportation as thats a byproduct of bending time and space (more or less). It also means he is able to turn the tv on and off as well as the toys. One thing im struggling with is the power supply for the tv, whereas most other things such as Hiro and the toys have energy (battery etc) the tv was unplugged?--[[User:Fr0z3nB0nes|Fr0z3nB0nes]] 15:27, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
 
Hey, I had two things I wanted to ask/put forward...1st)does this ability just part a prescribed, somewhat self-sufficient, electrical field allowing the tv to be turned on or does it also allow interaction between the tv and say a cable box/satelite dish?? Because it seems like merely turning something on and allowing the machine to operate with other machines are two distinct modes of operation??  Maybe not..2nd)this ability seems like basically the same or atleast very similiar to micahs ability.  I know the baby touched hiro, but im still thinking back to season 2 when micah touched monica and the next day she had complete control over her power...we've seen that the same abilities can be wielded to varying degrees by different people...could this not be technopathy???  I mean micah was like five when we first saw him use his ability???  Just a thought...-Babio123
* I noticed the similarities as well. Another thing to consider is [[ability supercharging]] - an ability that allows the user to make an evolved humans power stronger using some kind of ''electricity''. Makes me think the ability to manipulate electrical equipment and Matt jr.'s aren't that different.--[[User:BardinessBoy|BardinessBoy]] 06:31, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
How long does a consensus check last for a final decision?-- {{User:Catalyst/sig}} 22:21, 10 April 2009 (EDT)

==System/tactile/whatever Toggling==

I know no consensus was found, but I wanna bring attention to BarbedKnives's suggestion, since the suggestion was late into the consensus check. He mentioned '''Toggling''' (actually, he mentioned Tactile Toggling, but we don't need to over complicate it in my opinion. We don't use Tactile in any other ability name where touching is required.) While ''Activation'' was a good term, and I'm still personally for "Matt's ability", Toggling does in fact describe the ability. To toggle something is to turn it on OR off. Matt does both. Just wanna see what everyone thinks.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 07:44, 27 March 2009 (EDT)
* Toggling is fine too, I just had tactile in there because most powers use two words to describe the effects unless it's explicitly obvious like freezing.  And for the alliteration.  The term toggling is also broad enough to cover everything we've seen him do while not limiting it to mechanical systems.  -{{User:Barbedknives/sig}}10:29, 27 March 2009 (EDT)
** It's understandable why you put it in there, but it's unnecessary. :P --[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 10:49, 27 March 2009 (EDT)
* Toggling is a fine choice of name for the ability. So are many of the others. I won't personally stand in the way of any of the names on this page. But unless the community can come to consensus, none of the names will be used, unfortunately. I'd love to see some more discussion with people coming to a mutual decision on one name... -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 21:29, 27 March 2009 (EDT)
** My pick is for Toggling because it does hit all parts of the ability. My reason for bringing up the point again though was that the suggestion was made late into the consensus check and people may not have seen it or had a chance to think about it. :)--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 08:23, 28 March 2009 (EDT)
 
That's my suggestion for the name of the power. Think about it. He touches something and makes it work - therefore, it's more specific and clear than just "Activation," but still explains what the power does. To account for turning off the TV, we could call it "Tactile Toggling". [[User:EValentino|EValentino]] 13:16, 31 March 2009 (EDT)
* I already suggested this, people didn't get a consensus on the 'tactile' part though so we dropped it. {{User:Barbedknives/sig}}02:39, 1 April 2009 (EDT)
 
Just throwing that out there. I liked '''Toggling''' and '''System manipulation'''. '''Activation''' was a great idea, but Matt Jr. can turn things off as well (I think). '''Toggling''' things on and off sounds good, but more specifically certain "systems". '''System manipulation''' was good, but the comments above reminded me that to "manipulate" could mean to change how something works and Matt Jr. hasn't really changed the way the systems work, just toggled parts of them. I do think that Matt's ability to toggle systems on and off could mean that his power could be called '''System toggling'''. This is not a consensus check, but let me know what you guys think. --{{User:Bender/Sig}}

== What is Matt Parkman jr's ability. ==
 
His ablity is blats activation as the tv isn't plugged in and it's on so mpj can obvs activate anything like activating hiro's powers.

== Ignore the TV - what about the Toy Plane! ==
 
I find it interesting that people focused on the TV, the most amazing thign to me was that he made the toy airplane FLY.  Unlike the TV or the monkey (which is battery powered) or even Hiro's missing ability - he didn't just turn it on, he granted it the ability to do something it was not really designed to do - actually fly.
*Yeah, i saw that too and was like, wait, he touched the other stuff, but its flying without him touching it, but it isn't flying in a line, like he was controlling it? Im thinking he has a power like Control or Electromagnetic manipulation, he can control electrons such as the steering mechanism, or the power supply on the tv. He could also restore Hiro's power because he could rewrite his dna, or reset it back to its unremoved state. SO im going for State control, such as on, off.--[[User:Fr0z3nB0nes|Fr0z3nB0nes]] 13:22, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
*I'm going to go out on a limb and guess that the toy itself was designed to fly for short distances, and he just stuck it in the "on" position. --[[User:Ted C|Ted C]] 13:43, 24 March 2009 (EDT)

What do you think? If Matt activates inactive objects, can he make the dead if not come back to life, then at least move? --[[User:Altes|Altes]] 12:29, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* No. By that logic, [[Micah]] would control people like [[Eric Doyle]] does so well.--[[User:Isaac Mendez|Isaac Mendez]] 13:37, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* Young Matt's ability has not been shown to affect things that are too damaged to work. --[[User:Ted C|Ted C]] 13:42, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
** And if a man dies for natural reasons, no killing or anything? And also, Isaac, Micah only controls machines. He admitted to Monica that he couldn't fix her nightmares for her, so he doesn't manipulate human beings and has nothing to do with this theory. --[[User:Altes|Altes]] 13:57, 24 March 2009 (EDT)
* It's unlikely that he would be able to revive the dead.  The human body is a system, and in order to activate its functions it would need to be fully intact. Matt Parkman Jr. has not been shown to be able to repair damaged or destroyed systems, only to 'activate' them. [[User:Barbedknives|Barbedknives]] 12:33, 25 March 2009 (EDT)
** But Matt did restore a part of Hiro's lost ability, doesn't that count as a 'repair'? --[[User:Altes|Altes]] 13:43, 25 March 2009 (EDT)
** Perhaps, but again we have to remember that Hiro was not actually harmed when he lost his power, he just could not access it.  I have a feeling that we will be seeing more episodes going into Baby Matt's ability and articulating on it.  If his father's history of expanding on his ability is any indication, Matt Parkmen Jr.s ability could have profound and innumerable effects.  It may just be the most potent ability we've seen yet if drawn to it's fullest conclusions.  For example, if he really can control any system, he could theoretically kill a person by touching them, disable their abilities, revive the dead, stop disease, etc.  I doubt they've thought much into the nature of it.[[User:Barbedknives|Barbedknives]] 15:49, 25 March 2009 (EDT)
I personally don't think it's likely that this ability can revive someone who is truly dead.  However I think it's very likely that he could wake someone from an unconscious state even from in a coma.  --[[User:Falrinn|Falrinn]] 12:15, 27 March 2009 (EDT)

== Kinetic Distribution ==
 
The ability to give off kinetic energy, which is the energy of motion. In electronics there is always motion whether it be the hands moving in Sylar's watch or electrons traveling through the wires of the TV. In biologic systems cells us kinetic energy to digest, replicate, and any other function. Therefore the gene for Hiro's ability is created and can be activated.

**I agree. Before, I hated specific people's abilities, but this one really can't be named yet because the limits to his power are vague and no proper name has been suggested in the show.

****I agree, since this ability is not yet fully understood.  As already said, it might have to do with energy, though to say that energy would be able to reactivate abilities would make the laws governing abilities even more vague (then again, the solar eclipse already made energy an integral part of them).  I thought perhaps animation or reanimation might be appropriate names, but I'd rather wait and see if the show might explain the nature of the ability somehow. —[[User:Ampere|Ampere]] 07:17, 28 March 2009 (EDT)

I know X Men and Heroes have nothing to do with each other, but Matt's ability looks a lot like the young mutant in X2 and X3 that could turn on and change the channel on the T.V by blinking. It is probably not the same power considering Matt seems to be able to turn on and off any system he interacts with. I just thought that both powers seem to be similar,and this wouldn't be the first time one of the Heroes exhibited a power similar to one used in comics.

I think his ability is described best by empathic toggling, though at this point I doubt there will be a name change. his ability concerns emotions (when he is happy he makes systems go, when he is sad he makes them stop.)so there for empathic and toggling describes the way he makes things start and stop. anyone? --[[User:Tsmarg|Tsmarg]] 13, april 2009
 
*This is not completely correct, since he was seen turning off a television in his first appearance, despite being perfectly happy at the time. It's probably not directly connected to his emotions, but rather is influenced by them somewhat, because of his age.--[[User:Laudo|Laudo]] 11:39, 14 April 2009 (EDT)

**** In what way does he mimic systems? he can obviously control them in some way but mimic is to say [[Matt Parkman Jr.]] somehow copies them. anyway at this point new names are not going to help the consensus. --[[User:Tsmarg|Tsmarg]] 19, April 11:12 am (EDT)

* Since a lot of names have been put forward and many opposed I will strike out the names that will not be used (not including Matt's ability as this is default) so to direct peoples attention to the new names and spark up some discussion. --{{User:Laughingdevilboy/signature}} 07:45, 25 April 2009 (EDT)

** I agree with MiamiVolts, this new consensus check is great idea. It looks like it can actually get things done. --[[User:Bender|Bender]] 20:07, 22 April 2009 (EDT)
* This is a reminder that one should not be opposing a valid name. "Matt's ability", though not the best choice, is still valid. It worries me that we're opposing valid names. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:17, 22 April 2009 (EDT)
** I agree with you. This name shouldn't be listed as one of the possibilities as it can't be opposed. I think we're just going to have to strike these comments when we decide the consensus check is over.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 00:34, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
***Yes but I thought in the naming list this comes at the bottom and that commonly used naems comes above, making touch and go better than this? --[[User:345tom|345tom]] 08:32, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
**** We generally hold consensus checks for descriptive names (and occasionally for other names on the hierarchy). The reason the possessor's name is at the bottom is because it's pretty much a last resort for an ability name. However, "Matt's ability" is not wrong--it is neither too broad nor too narrow. By definition, this name cannot be wrong, and thus shouldn't be opposed. In fact, it shouldn't even be in the mix here. The possessor's name should only be used if we can't come to consensus on another name. The possessor's name might not be the best name, but it's certainly not wrong, and definitely shouldn't be opposed. It worries me that if we're opposing legitimate names like this one that we're also opposing other legitimate names. Opposition should be based solely on a name's validity, not whether another name is better, or what our personal preferences are...I'll work on [[Help:Consensus checks]] later on, probably after the finale. -- {{User:Ryangibsonstewart/sig}} 20:24, 26 April 2009 (EDT)

** That could arguably be implied by the term (and its opposite, "deactivation"), and could be acknowledged on the page itself. In addition, Maya's power, which exudes some form of poison, was intended to do the opposite at the end of Exodus.  Perhaps reversal is an extension of some powers? --[[User:Ricard Desi|Ricard Desi]] ([[User talk:Ricard Desi|t]],[[Special:Contributions/Ricard Desi|c]]) 21:09, 22 April 2009 (EDT)
*** Hmm? Deactivation isn't implied by activation... What Maya's power was intended to do doesn't count as canon in ''Heroes'', so that's a bad example.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 00:55, 23 April 2009 (EDT)

* Agreed! If you're gonna want to imply deactivation on the name you might as well rename "Enhanced Strength" to "Enhanced Strength when wanted with different amounts of power". Yes because "Puppet master" is such a great name for an ABILITY (which is not a PERSON). -- {{user:Meteoritu/sig}} 27 April, 2009 22:06

** Power toggling? - [[User:Josh|Josh]] ([[User talk:Josh|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Josh|contribs]]) 00:58, 23 April 2009 (EDT)

==State inversion==
Added 'state inversion'... a power or electrical device is normally either in the state of being "on" or "off"; 'state' means 'the condition or circumstances of a person or thing'. Inverting that state means to switch it from being on to off, or from off to on.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 02:08, 23 April 2009 (EDT)
* Added 'logical state inversion' and 'binary state inversion' since 'state inversion' by itself was accused of being too vague, possibly meaning a state of matter.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 19:23, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
 
=="Functional Intervention"==
Notes to consider:
*'''''function, as defined:''' "the kind of action or activity proper to a person, thing, or institution; the purpose for which something is designed or exists." [dictionary.com]''
**Matt Jr. changes the ability of an object or person to function according to its design.
*'''''intervention ("intervene"), as defined:''' "To involve oneself in a situation so as to alter, or hinder, an action or development." [dictionary.com]''
**Matt Jr.'s actions can best be defined as intervention because he can enable, disable, and <s>manipulate/</s>control the object/person's functional ability.
*'''Not simply a matter of "on" or "off"'''
**Matt Jr. was able to fly the toy plane and drive the toy cars in circles; this is much more influence on the objects than simply activating them-- he can <s>manipulate</s>/control them, but only within the bounds of their designed function.  Matt Jr.'s infancy may simply mask the full spectrum of his ability since he is not in full control of it.

***** If that were true, we would be able to group him with Micah as having technopathy. I don't think it's the same ability.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 17:33, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
******He manipulates both electronics and people. Micha "talks" to electronics. --[[User:OutbackZack|OutbackZack]] 17:38, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
*******Is that so? Couldn't it be said that Micah turned on his cousin's ability? Didn't he tell Sylar he could fix him? Both are as speculative as what you are trying to say about Matt's ability. I think you are reaching, and that we have normally accepted that control/manipulation means much more than to just turn on/off. The Haitian's ability of mental manipulation is a good example, cause he alters things in the mind... he doesn't just turn it on/off.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 18:34, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
******** Why are we talking about manipulation? When the ability topic is called Functional Intervention?--{{User:Laughingdevilboy/signature}} 18:58, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
********* Because Dfcrux said that Baby Matt could manipulate things within the bounds of their function, meaning Baby Matt would likely have turned the Ando's and Hiro's rental car around and forced it to go towards his mommy rather than just stopping it. Of course, that didn't happen cause that's not part of Baby Matt's ability.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 19:28, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
*All very good points--but please remember that while Matt Jr.'s ability is primarily turning something on/off, he could also control where the toy plane flew, and where the toy cars drove.  That surely shows ''some'' kind of influence other than on or off.  I've omitted the word "manipulate" from my previous explaination to avoid confusion; the relevance of the meaning of "functional intervention" still stands, though.  --[[User:Dfcrux|Dfcrux]] 23:15, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
** As I was pointing out, I think it's speculative to say that he controlled where the plane flew or how they moved. It could have been programmed to move like they did.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 23:34, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
***touche... but along those lines, "it could have been programmed" is just as speculative, and falsely omits the possibility that Matt Jr. ''did'' influence where the toys went.  The rule for speculation needs to apply in both directions.  And unfortunately, that may mean leaving the name alone until the character/ability are more developed next season... :/  --[[User:Dfcrux|Dfcrux]] 23:50, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
****I know this is ''Heroes'', a show with superpowers, but I think it should be common practice to always go with natural causation rather than allow for so many possibilities. If next season, the toilet in Janus's home suddenly stops working and the plumber can't find the problem, are we going to assume Matt Jr.'s the cause?

*Can we get a checkuser to make sure no sock puppetry is going on?  Oh and as a side note, I don't think this new consensus system is any more effective than the last one.  In fact, I'd say it's probably worse.  Very good names can be shot down with a single 'No' with little to no discussion, and any discussion just makes it look like the name has more opposition. -{{User:Barbedknives/sig}}[[User:Barbedknives|Barbedknives]] 23:19, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
** If you think someone is abusing multiple accounts, you can inform Admin at admin -at- heroeswiki dot com. I don't think either consensus system is perfect; but I think we are having more discussion on the names now than before, which is good. Also, just saying you oppose an ability's name isn't enough. You have to give a valid reason that it can't be used. In this case, saying that Matt Jr. controlled where the toys went is speculative.--23:34, 27 April 2009 (EDT)

== WHY ALL THE FUSS?! ==
 
JUST PICK A NAME, nothing we find is ever going to be 100% perfect, and appearently finding the next best thing is taking ages. Why the hell is the "Description" level up here on this page if no one ever uses it?! If we're going to wait for a canon source or semi-canon source to shut our mouths, we're going to end up with a crappy name like Eric's ability got "Puppet master"... basically if u have a nice name, rename this, if u don't, just leave it alone!! (btw I vote for "Activation"... it's simple, and don't throw the "he deactivates things too" fact, or else ur gonna call enhanced strength "enhanced starting fisting power and stopping fisting power"...) {{user:Meteoritu/sig}}
* Knox's power is to enhance his strength. This makes his fist more powerful. His ability does not start or stop fisting. - [[User:Josh|Josh]] ([[User talk:Josh|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Josh|contribs]]) 17:48, 27 April 2009 (EDT)
***Let's just call Matt's ability "Fisting"  --[[User:Action Figure|Action Figure]] 22:29, 2 May 2009 (EDT)
Honestly, I was on your side there, until I read what was in the parentheses. Reading that made me go "Moron," honestly (Though to be fair, I didn't go "Moron" until the "enhanced strength" part... The "activation" thing just made me go "Huh?"). Why do you think that if we bring up the fact that he deactivates things, too (Which is actually a valid argument against calling this ability "activation," believe it or not), then we're going to call [[enhanced strength]] "enhanced starting fisting power and stopping fisting power?" Just imagine... "<b>Enhanced starting fisting power and stopping fisting power</b> is the ability to exert greater-than-normal physical force"... Or something like that. See what I mean? We're not idiots (And I hope you're not one, either.).
 
Back on topic... You actually have a point, though, as I already spent a paragraph saying, you don't when it comes to what's in the parentheses (Although your point is no longer valid, as this ability already has a name - "activation and deactivation." Happy with that?). Also, what IS "fisting?" And why would we call this ability "fisting?"--[[User:ERROR|ERROR]] 20:48, 7 June 2009 (EDT)

== Flawed Consensus System. ==
 
I'm going to write this here, because this page has the best example of it. This new consensus is, with all due respect and no offense intended, flawed. First and foremost, as you can see above, it's more cluttered and disorganized. But personally, the problem I see is that just anybody thinks they can cross out a name because it has one or two oppositions. '''Matt's ability''' has four oppositions, but all of the conversation around it makes it look like it has a dozen. '''System toggling''' has two oppositions, one of which had a valid counter-point. '''State inversion''' has two oppositions. It goes on like that. In fact, alot of them are crossed out by one opposition by the same person. The way I see it is that people will take advantage of this system by using it in such a way where if they think it's wrong, it IS wrong. And now, in the "new consensus check", we have four names that went unopposed because people gave up on finding a name, not because they were good ideas, similar to [[Alejandro's ability]]. Beyond that, it's turned into a "vote on unopposed names." There is no "consensus" in a vote, which is why we switched systems; in reality we're just delaying the inevitable. We need to find a new system or just go back to the original system.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 13:41, 13 May 2009 (EDT)
* If there's a valid counterpoint, you can uncross-out the name when you express it, which I've done on a number of occasions. You can't oppose a name just cause you don't like it, it has to be a valid reason. I think the new consensus check worked well here. Activation and deactivation may not be the best name, but it is an acceptable one that encompasses what Matt's ability can do. As far as organization is concerned, I find this method a bit more organized than the method we used previously. When there are a number of valid names that can be used, there doesn't need to be consensus on which is the best one. There just needs to be consensus on which ones are valid.--[[User:MiamiVolts|MiamiVolts]] ([[User_talk:MiamiVolts|talk]]) 13:52, 13 May 2009 (EDT)
* Well, opposed names don't get used, so it sounds like they can and should be crossed out. It doesn't matter if there are 4 or a dozen oppositions to a name; what matters is whether there 0 or 1+ valid oppositions. What's wrong with state inversion having two oppositions? What's wrong with the same person opposing several names? This system does not allow people to declare a name wrong without explaining why it's wrong. As MiamiVolts said, if an opposition is invalid (which would be the case if someone wrote something such as "Opposed - I think it's wrong."), it gets crossed out, and the name gets uncrossed if there are no valid oppositions. If someone finds a better name than the one that was chosen, a new consensus check can be started. There's no need to find a name that everyone thinks is best before we switch from ''Matt's ability''. I really don't think there's anything wrong with voting to decide how we accomplish something there is a consensus for. (There's a consensus that we should use a name that's better than "Matt's ability", but we need to decide which one to use.) - [[User:Josh|Josh]] ([[User talk:Josh|talk]]/[[Special:Contributions/Josh|contribs]]) 14:46, 13 May 2009 (EDT)
** If one person thinks it's wrong and crosses it out, it becomes a "I think this wrong, so it is wrong." situation, because if it IS crossed out, people scroll right past it thinking it's a done deal. With the amount of people on this site, I hardly find two oppositions enough to say that it's an option to be thrown away. As for "Matt's ability" having four, my point was that it looks like it's highly opposed due to the discussion, when it's really not. The three choices above were not chosen because there was a consensus that they were the top choices, but because people gave up on this name around April 27th, if you'll note the signatures in each category. And the reason people are actually voting on names above is because they think it's a legitimate consensus, but I can see through it. If I were to put a random name up for consensus 2 weeks ago, it wouldn't have any oppositions either, because no one cared enough to check in on it. Like I said, this is just like Alejandro's ability. We gave up on that. If we are to use this system, we need to do away with crossing names out. No one should be allowed to take something like that into their own hands.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 15:44, 13 May 2009 (EDT)
**On the vote thing Riddler, Ryan has said ([http://heroeswiki.com/Talk:Outfit_morphing#Voting_on_names_not_opposed see here]) that if two or more names go unopposed, there will be a traditional vote, as the community has decided they are both acceptable names. We're not voting because we think it's a legitimate concensus, once you get to the voting stage the concensus is ''over''. We vote on the name we think best suits the page. --<span style="font-size: 10pt; font-weight:bold;"></span>'''[[User:Elemental Manipulator|Elemental Manipulator]]'''</span> [ [[User:Elemental Manipulator|U]] | [[User_talk:Elemental Manipulator|T]] | [[Special:Contributions/Elemental Manipulator|C]] ]'''</small> - <span style="color:green;">When in doubt, ask BTE </span> 01:35, 14 May 2009 (EDT)
*** And again, the names that were "unopposed" weren't unopposed because they were the best options, but because they were added after everyone put down their oppositions. People gave up and stopped coming to the page. I could have written in "Powerkinesis" or something silly like that at the same time people wrote the above options, and it would be in the poll right now as well.--[[User:Riddler|Riddler]] 02:02, 14 May 2009 (EDT)
*** I take full responsibility. When the consensus check first started people were continusously opposing names that would not be used. I therefore started governing the consensus checks and crossing out names that would not be used, I therefore realise I should have waited for at least 2 oppositions before striking, but as I was the only one doing it (with Ryan's agreement) I simply crossed out the names which had one opposed signature, however I noticed Miami was going around and checking peoples arguments so I didn't see this as a problem, what needs to be remembered is this is a new system, not everyone will like it, not everyone liked the old one. It is flawed however as you pointed this out I am sure it will be taken into account and possible will not be allowed in the future, by me or anyone. But it should be remembered that it wont matter what system we have in place it will be flawed. --{{User:Laughingdevilboy/signature}} 16:29, 13 May 2009 (EDT)

The most Powerful ability?

Since most abilities are blocked by Mental manipulation and blocked straight away. Could this ability come into the show so that Mental manipulation does not seem as powerful? --50000JH 13:32, 3 January 2010 (EST)

  • i don't see how this ability is the most powerful, empathic mimicry, intuitive aptitude and ability absorption are easily better. And seeing as it's hardly been used and is unlikely to be massivley used, I don't think it is the most powerful. --mc_hammark 10:35, 4 January 2010 (EST)
    • The deactivation part could be the same as Mental manipulation, Matt uses persuasion and illusion using his telepathy but Candice and Eden cannot read people's minds. --50000JH 17:23, 13 January 2010 (EST)
      • empathic mimicry is still a better ability. --mc_hammark 17:49, 13 January 2010 (EST)

I'm sorry, but how is this the most powerful ability?--ERROR 21:22, 27 January 2010 (EST)

        • If the ability could be used at a range instead of by touch, it may very well be the most powerful ability, as you could disable your opponents abilities (even if they did have EM) before they could be used against you. However, if it remains "touch and go", then there are more powerful abilities.--PJDEP - Need further explanation? 16:16, 18 February 2010 (EST)
          • We don't know if ability immunity applies to this, so if someone with empathic mimicry got close to someone with this, they'd mimic it. Intuitive Empath - Talk - Contributions 16:48, 18 February 2010 (EST)

I know this might be going off topic but he could deactivate a truck which proably use more energy than he had use before without touching the handbrake and he had activates toy cars when he Matt Parkman held him--50000JH 18:55, 27 March 2010 (EDT)

The statement that I made above responding to PJDEP statement about "touch and go".--50000JH 13:04, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

You could disable the opponents ability, as a mixes between Power absorbtion and Mental manipulation but not to the point with the user is not too powerful and gain the ability and that the opponet can't access their ability even outside the range of the user.--50000JH 13:11, 29 March 2010 (EDT)

Archive Time

Seriously, it is.--ERROR 21:22, 27 January 2010 (EST)

Peter

I hope the writers make Peter replicate this ability in next season, we seen little off it and this is such a brilliant ability to have, it be interesting as well it can develop, doubt it though.--50000JH 19:02, 27 March 2010 (EDT)

Matt Jr hardly use it, what the point in having a show with people with abilities, of putting in the show if they don't show them. No offensive--50000JH 21:03, 27 March 2010 (EDT)
