Hi. Regarding the future characters page, specifically changing Knox to Benjamin Washington, I think the convention is to go with the name the character is known by, and not the 'formal name.' For instance, if you look at the explosion future on that page, Matt isn't listed as Matthew, Niki isn't listed as Nicole, and so on. I think it's probably best if we try and stay consistent throughout the site (ie - present and futures), to avoid confusion (eg - someone thinking Knox and Benjamin Washington are different characters). Thanks. [[User:Stevehim|Stevehim]] 09:32, 11 October 2008 (EDT) | Hi.

*{{blurb}}I know that it's a fact that we call him "Knox". But we don't call Gabriel, Sylar there. And Noah Bennet is not called "HRG". So that's why i wanted to call Knox, Benjamin Washington, it seems more suitable that way but i could be wrong. I won't debate with you on that but if you 100% think it should stay that way it's ok with me, i just think it's more suitable if we use Knox his full name. Thanx!{{blurbclose}} | |||
I would say that Gabriel is a special case because, while the other future characters due refer to him as Sylar, he makes a point (and with a good reason) of why he wants to be called Gabriel, and it fits with the character he's become there. HRG is only known as that outside the show; inside he's referred to as Noah (or the man with the HRG, but convention says we go with Noah). I have no problem discussing the (or any) issue, to figure out what the best plan of action is, and I don't think my opinion should prevail over yours. I tried to start a discussion on it (but misplaced it...it's on the Knox (exposed future) page), so maybe we should try and get some other opinions.

Hi
Hey. There's a spelling error in the quote in your infobox (tahat) I was going to correct it, but I don't know if it's acceptable to edit people's userpages, so I figured I'd just drop a line here instead. Stevehim 13:37, 6 October 2008 (EDT)

Hey there. When you get a second, can you please put a source for Image:Botswana Country.jpg. The website or place you got the image from should suffice. Thanks! -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 07:59, 10 October 2008 (EDT)
Regarding future characters
Hi. Regarding the future characters page, specifically changing Knox to Benjamin Washington, I think the convention is to go with the name the character is known by, and not the 'formal name.' For instance, if you look at the explosion future on that page, Matt isn't listed as Matthew, Niki isn't listed as Nicole, and so on. I think it's probably best if we try and stay consistent throughout the site (ie - present and futures), to avoid confusion (eg - someone thinking Knox and Benjamin Washington are different characters). Thanks. Stevehim 09:32, 11 October 2008 (EDT)
I know that it's a fact that we call him "Knox". But we don't call Gabriel, Sylar there. And Noah Bennet is not called "HRG". So that's why i wanted to call Knox, Benjamin Washington, it seems more suitable that way but i could be wrong. I won't debate with you on that but if you 100% think it should stay that way it's ok with me, i just think it's more suitable if we use Knox his full name. Thanx!
I would say that Gabriel is a special case because, while the other future characters due refer to him as Sylar, he makes a point (and with a good reason) of why he wants to be called Gabriel, and it fits with the character he's become there. HRG is only known as that outside the show; inside he's referred to as Noah (or the man with the HRG, but convention says we go with Noah). I have no problem discussing the (or any) issue, to figure out what the best plan of action is, and I don't think my opinion should prevail over yours.
