Cleansing
Does this page need to be cleansed of no-longer-current events? --Ted C 16:30, 15 December 2006 (EST)
- Probably. Both the auction and the logo contest are over.--Hardvice (talk) 17:12, 15 December 2006 (EST)
Heros Wiki Logo Contest #1
Heroes Wiki is currently conducting a logo design contest. Please help by contributing new logo and icon designs!
- The contest has concluded. Thanks to all who participated!
- Is the logo contest really already over?--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:15, 9 June 2007 (EDT)
- Ah, very confusing. No, the first logo contest is over. The second logo contest is still up and running and accepting submissions. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 02:17, 9 June 2007 (EDT)

GN in Character History sections
Just a few quick notes about the switches: If there is a reference to a GN in the Notes section, it should be replaced by the GN history ... Also, most of the Notes references need to be fleshed out a bit to be included in the Character History sections. I was thinking, actually, it might be better to have the list on the Current events page to be sorted by character rather than by GN — when I do the switches, I'm going to do an entire character, not just a graphic novel. But this really only affects characters that appear in multiple GNs. I'm going to do Mr. B. now, so maybe it's not that big of a deal. ramble ramble ramble — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 14:21, 5 February 2007 (EST)
Free Time? Really?
Goodness. Both checklists are almost complete and we've only got 7 wanted pages. Apart from the GN histories on the character pages, we're suspiciously close to being ... caught up. Eerie.--Hardvice (talk) 16:13, 9 February 2007 (EST)
- I'd recommend we use this weekend to work on Stubs. Who's with me?--Hardvice (talk) 16:14, 9 February 2007 (EST)
- Totally with you, my man. The way I see it, we've got three major categories of stubs: actor pages, location pages, and then some pages (mostly research-related) that just need to be put into standard format. We should knock some out in no time. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:54, 9 February 2007 (EST)
- I've got the actor pages in a separate stubegory now (Category:Cast and Crew Stubs) since we may or may not be able to find any info on them. That way, if we can clean out Category:Stubs, and do as many actor pages as we can, we'll be as done as possible, and the main Stubegory will be empty.--Hardvice (talk) 22:10, 9 February 2007 (EST)

Sneaks - New Category
'There needs to be a SNEAKS Category on this website, because there are now too many of these kinds of sneak preview clips, all over television. The one this morning (February 26th) was from a future unnamed episode and was on CBS.
Heroes sneak peek on CBS this morning!
On the popular Rachel Ray 9 AM variety show, Rachel had Adrian Pasdar (Nathan Petrelli) as a guest. But before introducing him, they showed a CLIP of some upcoming episode of Heroes.
Here is a summary of that clip:
In the Las Vegas airport, Nathan and Hiro Nakamura are discussing how to get his SWORD past security. (Hiro is wearing the sword on his back, obviously gotten somehow from Mr. Linderman, perhaps with Nathan's help.)
Nathan tells Hiro that when he first met him he thought he was nuts, but now he knows about his powers and can agree with his mission to prevent a nuclear disaster in New York. Nathan derides his own ability to fly somewhat, saying it is pretty useless.
Hiro tells Nathan that it is hard caring for people, because everyone he tried to help he ended up hurting them instead. He has sent his friend Ando home because of this. Hiro also says that he knows why Nathan pretends not to care. He knows it is because Nathan cares too much for everyone.
Then the clip ends and Rachel Ray begins to interview Adrian about his marriage to one of the Dixie Chicks. Transcript needed
- If the video is available, then these should go in the previews section of Template:videosplain. If the video isn't available, then we probably shouldn't bother with them, but the information can always go in the appropriate spoiler article.--Hardvice (talk) 02:00, 27 February 2007 (EST)
Images categories
So for now, we have the main characters up. I was thinking, however, due to the prevalence of Sylar in the episode, a category with him would also be a good idea. However, this would mean we should have Ando as well, etc. So, should we include other non-main characters?--Bob 18:53, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
- I do think we should have an image category for Sylar. That problem with having a category for Ando is that if we have a category for him, then we might end up making categories for images of all the other supporting and recurring characters, until it gets down to "Images of Hiro's boss." I'm quite looking forward to "Images of Mr. Muggles", though. :) Heroe!(talk) (contribs) 19:15, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
- It wouldn't hurt to have character image categories for more than just main characters--in fact, images of Candice would be interesting, wouldn't it? Let's start with the main characters. Sylar is an obvious next choice, I'll add him to the list. Let's hold off on others, unless somebody has a burning desire to see images of Claude right away. (Hmm, wouldn't a gallery of Claude images mostly just look like background scenery?) — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 19:49, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
- Yeah, I was thinking about Claude's pictures.--Bob 20:02, 19 May 2007 (EDT)
- Ando should be included, he's been in almost every episode, right? Also, how do I do this? I'll help out, I have nothing better to do.--Riddler 11:38, 20 May 2007 (EDT)
- What I'm doing right now is making my way through each episode (Category:Episode Images), and on each picture with a main character and Sylar, I add [[Category:Images of (name)]] at the bottom. Lot of brute force, but the end-product is well worth the hassle. I'm working my way from the most recent episodes, if you'd like, you can start from the beginning. I think Heroe knocked out Genesis yesterday. After all that, I was going to search through each character to make sure I didn't miss any. There's bound to be a few on Powers images and such. --Bob 11:53, 20 May 2007 (EDT)
- Don't forget to also check the Promotional Images and the Graphic Novel Images. — RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 14:08, 20 May 2007 (EDT)

Add Voting Events?
Should we add to current events if there is an open talk-page poll for the naming/coining of a new character or power?--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:43, 9 June 2007 (EDT)
- I think voting should be more publicized, so that's why I added the voting articles to current events. Ryan had suggested to add voting to Template:Todo or Template:Todo2. Template:Todo is linked in the talk pages of new users, but it is not a part of the main navigation. Template:Todo2 is on the main page, but is already kind of full.--MiamiVolts (talk) 14:32, 11 June 2007 (EDT)
- You made it look very nice. I am personally not a big fan of publicizing name changes--I can't put my finger on why, maybe I just am kind of anti voting when it comes to article names. But that's another issue. :) You're right, though, Category:Pages to be renamed and the voting on talk pages are slightly different. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 15:16, 11 June 2007 (EDT)
How about...
A page for interviers and such, like Auisello? I'm sure people wonder "who the heck is Auisello" when they see his name all around the wiki. --Riddler 14:17, 29 June 2007 (EDT)
- There's a bunch of links to popular Heroes spoiler sites (like Ausiello). That section could be put into a table or just expanded if you wanted. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 16:39, 29 June 2007 (EDT)
New background/skin
We have just selected a new logo for the site, and I propose a second summer haitus project. Some other wikis (here, [1]) have skins designed specifically for their site. Anybody else like the idea? Would it be possible? ---- 20:51, 6 July 2007 (EDT)
- It would most definitely be possible if someone wants to tackle it. (Admin 21:24, 6 July 2007 (EDT))
- It's not something I personally want to do, but I think it would be terrific to have some new skin. I'd love to see what people come up with. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:35, 6 July 2007 (EDT)
- I prefer the current skin if a skin is necessary, but if I had the option to turn it off I would when Heroes is on air. I think it tends to add to lag which we experience when traffic goes high during the regular season.--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:11, 7 July 2007 (EDT)
- I like the one we have now, but I wouldn't mind having another skin. Personally, I think the dark ones don't look very good, so I would want to see one closer to Lostpedia's. --Hero!(talk)(contribs) 12:17, 7 July 2007 (EDT)

Season One Histories
I included all main characters. For supporting characters, I chose to leave off any people that are dead or presumed dead and anybody who is not returning to the show for Season Two. We can always archive those people later if needed, but it'd be kind of pointless to archive a person's history if they're only in Season One. For recurring characters, none of those people were in Season One a substantial amount of times to archive their histories--in other words, if they appear in Season Two (even if they appear in a huge number of episodes), their Season One histories will look fine alongside their Season Two histories. I don't even think it would be necessary to put a "Season One" heading on them. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 11:01, 19 July 2007 (EDT)
- We should hurry to have thoose page created. Season two is coming and it's about tobe such a mess if we have to deal with both season two and one. I know it's easy to say but harder (especcialy when you are French ;) ). I just wanted to highlight this page in case some of our contributors forget it ! --
(talk) 03:18, 16 August 2007 (EDT)
- Nice work on moving the histories, FrenchFlo. We've still got a over month to get the summaries done. I think we'll manage without hurrying. :)--MiamiVolts (talk) 07:16, 16 August 2007 (EDT)
I submitted three questions (to CBR).
Hey, thanks for taking the time to read my questions. I've only got a few... For starters, I'm big into debates, and there is one that is driving us over at Heroeswiki insane. You guys nodded to "Electrokinesis" in a past BTE. Can we consider this a coined term, or is something along the lines of "Electricity Generation", "Electricity Manipulation" or "Electrogenesis" more accurate?
Second, we've seen the past "Rapid Cellular Regeneration", which could be shortened to just Regeneration, and the more recent "Adoptive Muscle Memory", which some people originally called "Photographic Reflexes." Will wee see any more powers scientifically renamed to the masses by Suresh?
Lastly, do you think any staff of the Heroes production team (anyone from writers to producers, etc.) will make cameo appearances on the show? I think it'd be cool to see a couple of you guys show a power... just try not to get killed by Sylar.
Thanks again. Big fan- Riddler Rob of Long Island, New York.
- :D --Riddler 23:03, 1 November 2007 (EDT)
- Oh crap, sorry, didn't realize I posted it there. x.x --Riddler 23:07, 1 November 2007 (EDT)
- No big deal. :) As an aside, you should have seen how ecstatic I was when Mohinder just out and named her ability. I was like, "Man, it's almost like they just came out with it so we'd stop arguing over it." haha (Admin 23:09, 1 November 2007 (EDT))
- I was delighted as well. Riddler, you may still want to e-mail that with the corrected mispellings/grammar changes I just made above.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:16, 1 November 2007 (EDT)
- When Mohinder named it, my eyes lit up, and I came right here to change it, but someone beat me to the punch. XD - The only mispelling I noted was "wee" which I just caught, what else did I miss?--Riddler 23:17, 1 November 2007 (EDT)
- "Eletricity" should be "Electricity" (note the missing c). Also, I added some commas.--MiamiVolts (talk) 23:33, 1 November 2007 (EDT)
- Well, we didn't get any answers to the first 2 questions. I think you should reword them to be more general detailing aspects of the power instead of the name itself. Ie. In the BTE of two weeks ago, you appeared to nod to Electrokinesis as Elle's power. It is an issue of debate as to whether you were just parroting the person who asked the question. Perhaps you can clarify by answering this new question: Is Elle emitting a charge from her hands when she uses her power, or is she creating a path for current to flow and absorbing charge into herself?
Might we meet other scientists, besides Mohinder, who are working against the Company? Maybe that could be Adam Monroe?--MiamiVolts (talk) 18:02, 5 November 2007 (EST)

Hey again, and thanks again for taking the time to read my questions.
First off, you guys aren't ugly, -punches your shoulders-, don't be so down on yourself. =P
My questions this week are this.
In a BTE a few weeks ago, you appeared to nod to Elle's power being Electrokinesis. This kind of started a war (it's civil, don't worry) over what you guys intended. One side believes you were only parroting what the questioner asked, the other side believes you were acknowledging the name as right. Can you please clarify- should we consider "Electrokinesis" a coined term?
Also, we've seen Chandra and Mohinder name a few of the powers scientifically, such as Rapid Cell Regeneration and Adoptive Muscle Memory (which until two episodes ago was called Photographic Reflexes by popular consensus). Can we expect more Suresh-Appointed-Scientific-Ability names?
Thanks for reading- Riddler (Long Island, NY)--Riddler 12:10, 10 November 2007 (EST)
- Looks okay. Did you see my suggestions and already submit these? I thought you needed to submit questions by Thursday?--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:23, 10 November 2007 (EST)
- I don't see by thursday anywhere on the site. If it is, then whoops. >_>;
I'll submit now.--Riddler 12:25, 10 November 2007 (EST)
- In the first CBR of Season 2, Week 1, it reads: Remember to get your questions in by 5:00 PM Pacific on Thursday to improve the chances of your question being included the following week. Anyways, better late than not at all.--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:39, 10 November 2007 (EST)

Now that it's the only one left...
After we going to do a season one summery of Jessica? She hasn't been explicitly mentioned (if I remember correctly), but Niki still seems to be having personality issues, but she doesn't have any Season Two entries. If we decide to do the summery, I'll get on it, if not, no skin off my nose. Lulu 18:47, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
- Thanks, that's very cool of you to offer--and I'll take a moment to thank you for your recent quality contributions--thanks! ... I don't think Jessica needs a season summary any more than Isaac, D.L., Candice, or Simone do. Niki's having problems, but I don't think we can even be sure Jessica has made another appearance. If Jessica does become a presence in S2, I don't think it's ever too late to summarize her page. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 19:02, 2 November 2007 (EDT)
- Alrighty, I guess then I'll restore her archived information back onto her page. Should I delete the actual page it's archived on? (read: Jessica_Sanders/Season_One
- Looks like you're a step ahead of me! Lulu 19:05, 2 November 2007 (EDT)

Censorship/Unilateral Deletion of Contributions
I've noticed quite of bit of deletion of posts without any community discussion first. Articles and content on Wikipedia are suggested for deletion well before they are deleted, and I suggest the same occur here. In the event the item in question may contain purported spoilers, etc, I suggest the article/content to be deleted be moved to heroeswiki.com/"articlename"/quarantine, and the location of the quarantined information be linked to from the discussion concerning deletion in the talk area. Any takers on the idea? --TRECORD-- Talk/Contrib 22:24, 19 November 2007 (EST)
- There's no need for a "quarantine" since all articles have an edit history. Even deleted articles can be recovered by administrators. If your posts contain spoilers, ensure they remain on the Spoiler pages since no spoilers are to exist on the regular articles or their talk pages. (Admin 22:27, 19 November 2007 (EST))
- I didn't delete your comment without a heads up, I told you I did it. Your comment was uncalled for on that page as it was a spoiler for an image that people haven't necessarily seen. At the end of the episode, Noah is alive! Now a spoiler is revealed and people get curious. It's best not to mention things about upcoming episodes like that.--Riddler 22:29, 19 November 2007 (EST)
Most wanted stubs
Is there a way to do most wanted stubs (instead of just stubs) by having DPL sort through and only printing out the top 10 of each sorted by the # of links to said page?--MiamiVolts (talk) 19:42, 11 December 2007 (EST)
- Ok, I switched it to use the page counter (which records the # of page hits) and used 15 instead. Now, only the top 15 stubs are shown in each category. I also limited the images for deletion to only the top 6. There's no reason to be spammy.--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:15, 12 December 2007 (EST)
Floating Birthdays and Holidays
Ok, I added into the history a new format floating the Birthdays and Holidays & Observances sections to the right. You can view it here. I think it fits in better that way. Other opinions?--MiamiVolts (talk) 00:37, 27 December 2007 (EST)
- It does look nice, but I don't have a preference for the floating way or the sectioned way. They both look great. I don't think we need to add holidays--I think it's way too much. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:07, 27 December 2007 (EST)
- I like the floating way cause it allows the articles to be renamed section to be at the top and still keeps things alphabetical. And I like how it gets rid of the whitespace on the right side of the screen. Regarding the holidays template, it's way too much what?--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:16, 27 December 2007 (EST)
- As in it's not necessary. --Hero!(talk)(contribs) 01:21, 27 December 2007 (EST)
- Right, not necessary even though it's a really nice template. Wishing a happy birthday to Heroes cast and crew is fine, but wishing a happy every-holiday-in-December is just not something I think we need to be doing. -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:23, 27 December 2007 (EST)
- Thanks for clarifying. If I limit it to just the Heroes-related observances, will that be acceptable?--MiamiVolts (talk) 01:30, 27 December 2007 (EST)
- What Heroes-related observances are you referring to? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 01:31, 27 December 2007 (EST)

Is the writer's strike ending?
I can't find any literature on it, but I did notice a commercial for Prison Break, which has a new episode coming tomorrow. That shocked the everloving hell out of me. Anyone know what's up?--Riddler 00:55, 14 January 2008 (EST)
- Prison Break still has 5 episodes to air. Nothing major or interesting, they are just showing the remaining episodes.-- Seclusion talk / contribs 01:13, 14 January 2008 (EST)
Graphic Novel Update
Just to say, the latest graphic novel is incorrectly displayed as 'Faces, Part 1' not 'Faces, Part 2'. Couldn't find a way to edit this as it said Godsend, Part 5 and not a direct link to the graphic novel, so can this be updated? Friskymuffin (talk) 16:14, 28 May 2008 (GMT)
- Good catch! It looks like updating Template:currentgn got marked as completed by accident without actually having been updated. I updated it for the new graphic novel. (Admin 11:38, 28 May 2008 (EDT))

Should we have a page for the Premiere event? They're showing alot of behind the scenes stuff and sneak peeks, I just feel it should be chronicled or something. And my god, the Sylar/Angela scene.--Riddler 20:11, 22 September 2008 (EDT)

- By the way, Riddler, congratulations... you were on national TV! :) (Admin 21:07, 22 September 2008 (EDT))
- I saw you, Riddler--my wife kept asking me if I knew any of the fans during the montage and interviews, and I told her that you were a wiki bud. Congrats! ... As for the Season Three Countdown, an article is a good idea. I definitely don't think, though, that it should be considered an episode and should definitely not be squeezed in the middle of the episode order or anything like that. Maybe Category:Production? -- RyanGibsonStewart (talk) 21:45, 22 September 2008 (EDT)
- Thanks for the 'grats. =] Can anyone send me the clip of that segment? Everything from Ali Larter introducing it to the end of it? You can send it to me via E-Mail, caveman6620@gmail.com --Riddler 23:30, 22 September 2008 (EDT)

Final Volume
There is some speculation that this may be the final volume of Heroes, does anybody thinks the same?-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 15:33, 14 December 2009 (EST)
- I've heard that, I really hope it isn't though! -- Leckie -- Talk 15:36, 14 December 2009 (EST)
- Me either, I mean there is so much left to explain. And if there is going to be a final episode this volume i want Peter to get his ability back and fight a epic fight against Sylar. atleast something like that.-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 15:39, 14 December 2009 (EST)
- I think (and hope) it has more seasons left. Despite the drop in ratings, it's still one of NBC's best performing shows, and when you add in DVR numbers, DVD sales, and how well it performs in other countries, it should be safe. Plus, it's moving back to it's old timeslot, so not going up against House should help. The quality and improvement in this season is just to good for it to be canceled now.--Ratclaws 17:09, 14 December 2009 (EST)
- I wouldn't call this the best source of all time, but according to David H. Lawrence's Twitter, the "finale" he worked on is only a season finale, not a series finale. --Ricard Desi (t,c) 19:05, 14 December 2009 (EST)

Firefox
My firefox is having some big problems with Heroeswiki and i dont know why, it just crashes every 3 minutes (something like that). Anybody knows whats wrong?-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 12:39, 19 December 2009 (EST)
- Try closing firefox then open it again in a new browser. Mine used to have problems like that but I just did that everytime and it would be fine for the rest of the night :) -- Leckie -- Talk 12:50, 19 December 2009 (EST)
- So, i should close firefox, then open it with for instance IE and then open it again with Firefox?-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 13:05, 19 December 2009 (EST)
- Nope, close your firefox browser, then' open a new firefox browser. -- Leckie -- Talk 13:10, 19 December 2009 (EST)

- You should probably let Admin know if you are having such problems viewing the site. Also, does this happen for you on every page? And what version of Firefox are you using? I'm using Firefox 3.0.15 and I'm not having any problems.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:23, 19 December 2009 (EST)
- I think it's Firefox itself. I use Google Chrome as my default browser, and it is surprisingly fast and doesn't have many, if any problems. That is my suggestion, as firefox is appearing to becoming very slow and having problems with loading websites (at least in my opinion/experiences). But again, that's just my suggestion. If not, then do what Miami suggested.--Catalyst · Talk · HL 15:37, 19 December 2009 (EST)
- I also think that it's Firefox itself. It mostly happends at the Recent changes page or when i edit something.-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 15:39, 19 December 2009 (EST)

Ryan
I think it's more messy out here without Ryan. Anybody agree?-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 09:27, 26 December 2009 (EST)
- What do you mean? -- Leckie -- Talk 09:34, 26 December 2009 (EST)
- I mean, some images aren't right size and stuff and with naming Jeremy's ability, normally, he fixes or comes with good arguments but he is on vacation right now. Not that i have a problem with that i mean he can go whenever he wants to. And it's not that its a serious mess out here but it's a little bit more messy.-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 09:38, 26 December 2009 (EST)
Heroes mistake

Look at the scar he has. It should be gone because of Adam's blood but it isn't. Is it a mistake of the producers or is Adam's blood isn't good enough to heal scars?-- Yoshi | Talk | Contributions 10:32, 27 December 2009 (EST)
- I don't think Adam's blood would heal scars.--Catalyst · Talk · HL 10:35, 27 December 2009 (EST)

Season 5, anyone?
Now, I may be stupid for posting this, as I am sure that everybody else is just about as in-the-dark as I am. I hadn’t gave it much thought before, but after last night’s episode aired, something hit me: there is a very real possibility that next week could very well be the last episode of Heroes ever!!! I’m pretty sure that NBC hasn’t reached their decision about a season 5 yet. Is this true? I figured if anyone had some insight, it would be someone on Heroes Wiki. Some sources seem to think that season 5 is completely out of the question, while others believe that it is looking very likely that NBC will pick it up for another season. I’m confused! Does anyone know the truth??? I’m going crazy here! Again, I know that if someone had received an answer, that they would have probably posted the news already, however, I thought this was worth a try. Anyone? --Lynn Dolyn 15:49, 2 February 2010 (EST)
- The ratings Heroes has been getting have been slowly slipping season to season, however several script and acting sources indicate that this is merely a season finale, not a series finale. Additionally, NBC is even advertising it still as a season finale. Unfortunately, we just won't know for a little while longer. --Ricard Desi (t,c) 15:52, 2 February 2010 (EST)
- Nobody really knows. There are lots of things that point towards there being a 5th season, D H Lawrence hinted at one, J K Lee said definitely, a fifth Season would push pass the 100 episode mark which for some reason (idk why) is better for NBC. Plus there's the fact that DVD and blueray sales are amazing. The only think I think that's pointing to there not is the dip in viewers, but, as many of the cast and crew have said... the viewing figures doesn't take into account recordings, watching online and all those things. If next week was the last week, I think they'd have told us by now and make it a big hype about a goodbye. But watch it next week, if there's an intro to Volume 6 like the past volumes have had, that pretty much confirms it. --mc_hammark 15:56, 2 February 2010 (EST)
- I'd say the big thing is that internet, DVD, and global television mark Heroes as a total home run. Hopefully that'll be enough to squeeze another season out. --Ricard Desi (t,c) 16:01, 2 February 2010 (EST)
- Yes, I hope so too! Thank you for your insight. It looks as if we’ll just have to wait and see, but there is still hope, so that’s good… “Don’t leave us, Heroes, we need you…”--Lynn Dolyn 18:04, 2 February 2010 (EST)
- It's been a week since the season finale. Still, no word from NBC. Stop toiling with our minds... (T_T) --LynnDOLYN | talk 13:42, 15 February 2010 (EST)

Longest talk pages
I added a listing for the twenty longest talk pages that we can use for archiving purposes. It includes all the talk namespaces except for 'User talk'. With regards to Episode talk, GN talk, iStory talk, and the like, I think the checklist should remain after the page is archived.--MiamiVolts (talk) 20:42, 13 February 2010 (EST)
- Does it list the number of topics as well? That could possibly be a factor that could play into it. For example, if there was one page with just one heading, but was the longest, would we archive that? --mc_hammark 20:47, 13 February 2010 (EST)
- Yes. In that case, I would subdivide the section, then archive. It's not really good to have a single section that's 60k... it makes it hard to follow and reply, imho.--MiamiVolts (talk) 21:23, 13 February 2010 (EST)
