New page idea
I'm new here (as you might have noticed- thanks for fixing that gaffe in lung adapt - and sorry if this messes up the formatting on the page or whatever...I'm learning,) and I saw you did a lot of the work on the ability by classical element page. Is it possible you might be interested in doing something like that with the categories(the red bar ones with the percentages in data analysis in the assignment trackers) that The Company uses to group abilities? It's the closest thing we have to a canon way (per se) of categorizing these things. -- RideThatDonkey 02:14, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
- Looks like someone beat you to that idea. Check out Theory:Abilities by data analysis.--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:18, 2 July 2008 (EDT)
No Need to worry :)
No need to worry, they are all done on email. --Skywalkerrbf 09:41, 16 July 2008 (EDT)
Plural...
Yo! Your change "webisode" --> "webisodes" is premature! See Talk:Portal:Cast. Pierre 22:55, 17 July 2008 (EDT)
- Is it? It's going to be a heck of a lot more work to change it later on...--MiamiVolts (talk) 22:59, 17 July 2008 (EDT)
Interviews
Yer I may change the webisodes to the tenth as I am on hoilday from the 24th and I just realsied lol. I duno if anyone will submit for Roberto Sanchez as he is only a guest star. I am still not sure about changing Shalim Ortiz's date though. --Skywalkerrbf 07:33, 19 July 2008 (EDT)
- August 10th would be better for the webisodes since the 3rd webisode isn't released until July 28th, though I was hoping you could space the submission deadlines so they don't all fall on the same week.--MiamiVolts (talk) 07:43, 19 July 2008 (EDT)
- What do you mean? Shalim Ortiz and Roberto Sanchez or the whole webisdoes cast? --Skywalkerrbf 07:47, 19 July 2008 (EDT)
- All of the above, but the webisodes cast and crew even more so.--MiamiVolts (talk) 07:51, 19 July 2008 (EDT)
- I thought it would be nice to post them all at the same time as they are all about the same thing. --Skywalkerrbf 08:02, 19 July 2008 (EDT)
- That fine, but splitting the question submissions by at least a day or so allows for prioritizing. Just a suggestion.--MiamiVolts (talk) 08:26, 19 July 2008 (EDT)
- you kinda have your wish, Kiko Ellsworth is not free till the 19th now --Skywalkerrbf 08:35, 19 July 2008 (EDT)

Comment moved
Hey did you delete my comment? I don't think you're aloud to do that. and yes I will give him the interview and apologize to her as long as we take measures to make sure this doesn't happen again.
- I moved your comment to where it belonged. Since it was a reply to a comment on your page, I think it belongs on your page. We're already making sure by compiling a list of people we're contacting and posting it on the Wiki. Now it's up to you to check the list. If someone else is listed as having contacted them on the list, let them have the interview. I don't see the problem with that.--MiamiVolts (talk) 08:01, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
- Where have oy umoved it to I can't see it. I don't think you have any right to just get rid of what I've said :S, please do not do it again. Where is this list of people we have contacted by the way? --Skywalkerrbf 11:49, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
- I didn't get rid of it, I moved it to the appropriate spot. See the related change. ChrisYu and Lost Soul have mentioned sharing the master contact list, so I guess send them an e-mail asking for it? (Re-reading, it does appear the full list is offline). Besides that, there is a list of upcoming interviews in Current events, and Template:Interviews for existing interviews (both of which need updating for your interviews).--MiamiVolts (talk) 12:40, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
- Yes I know about them lists but not about the offline list and I think you will find them all the online lists updated thankyou very mutch :). --Skywalkerrbf 17:13, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
- Mike, Sally and Max are missing from Template:Interviews--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:21, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
- O I didn't know about that template, I have never seen it before :S but I will update it ASAP.

- If you want more time to sunmit your questions, by not start on Kevin Tostado now? I have a template for cast but not for crew so it would really help. --Skywalkerrbf 15:11, 23 July 2008 (EDT)
- I'm trying to think up questions for Debra McGuire first, since she comes before Kevin according the schedule in current events.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:19, 23 July 2008 (EDT)
- o yes so she does, check out User:Skywalkerrbf/schedule to see the due dates for all of the interviews, you will also see from this page that I am at elast trying to space out the interviews. --Skywalkerrbf 15:23, 23 July 2008 (EDT)

IMDb
DO you have a account? If so can you please look for Rebeka Montoya's contact details for me as I do not have a account and she is the only actor from the webisodes I don't have. --Skywalkerrbf 17:11, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
- I don't have IMDb Pro. I think Lost Soul did, but his account expired a few weeks ago. He might have gotten her details before then, I'm not sure.--MiamiVolts (talk) 17:19, 21 July 2008 (EDT)
Photo
James Ryen asked me to upload a new photo of him, but it is way to big, can you sort it out please I duno what I'm doing lol. --Skywalkerrbf 12:40, 24 July 2008 (EDT)
Thanks For The Welcome
My you are a busy person, no wonder they call you Volts! Don't tell anybody I'm here to gather ideas for the Alternate Ego, I mean Activating Evolution Wiki. --Psych-Gen 11:34, 28 July 2008 (EDT)
- My talk page is globally readable. If you want to tell me something private, you can pm me over at 9th Wonders or IMDb.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:50, 28 July 2008 (EDT)
- Yep, secret's out! ;) (Admin 11:52, 28 July 2008 (EDT))
thanks for helping with my Haitian mystery
It makes sense that the Haitian has powers that we don't know about. I mean, for half of series 1 we didn't know he could speak! And neither did other characters.--Sylarbob 05:08, 29 July 2008 (EDT)
- You're welcome. BTW, if you include --~~~~ after your message on a talk page, it will autoappend your name and the date (your signature).--MiamiVolts (talk) 05:13, 29 July 2008 (EDT)
Reply to Images
Hello MiamiVolts, I am glad to be of help, and thank you for the advice I am still getting to grips with Heroes Wiki so it is appreciated, the red line was left by the sniping tool I used to get the picture, however I had forgotten to remove it and I am sorry if the capitals were a problem, it is (at least for me) an autonomic reflex when writing someones name, or the start of a sentence, anyway I will try to remember.--Nexus 10:42, 5 August 2008 (EDT)
- You're welcome. Capitalization of names is okay, but it makes it easier to remember if everyone uses lowercase file extension .jpg for images. BTW, feel free to reply on your own page if I or someone else leaves a comment there. No need to respond on my page too as I check the recentchanges quite often.--MiamiVolts (talk) 10:55, 5 August 2008 (EDT)
Question
I've notice that your good with should and shouldn't be on certain things. So I will ask you if I was right for doing something. I removed a sentence from fan theories on the Season Three Spoilers page because it was a spoiler that was released at the Comic-Con. I realize that it could be a theory that the person actually had but if they read the Comic-Con spoiler then they are just trying to play the spoiler off like it was their theory. I believe that it was best to just remove it because we can't know either way and it isn't right to have it on there if it isn't their actual theory. If I was wrong I will replace it. Let me know what I need to do or not do.--Iceman 14:11, 5 August 2008 (EDT)
- Well, if it's already a spoiler in Spoiler:Season Three then it doesn't need to be a fan theory as well. If it's not listed as a spoiler in Spoiler:Season Three, then you should add it there. For help on general questions you can post to Heroes Wiki talk:Administrator Portal for an administrator to help you, or Heroes Wiki talk:Community Portal if a fellow user can be of help.--MiamiVolts (talk) 14:22, 5 August 2008 (EDT)
Company Agents
I've created articles for all of the Company agents listed in the map, albeit, without pictures. Therequiembellishere 02:42, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- That's cool. I haven't had access to the map for about a couple weeks (since shortly after the map came online). It suddenly started loading just as a white flash window. I think that's cause it's such a large file. If you need help with resizing any of the image files, let me know.--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:46, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Well, I haven't put pictures on because I don't know how to even take them off on the site. (And I have to use the IE to load it, Firefox crashes and both are up to date). Therequiembellishere 02:48, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Maybe that's it. I'm only running Windows 2000, so I can't use IE 7 (I use both the latest Firefox and IE 6, but neither are working for me).--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:55, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- I dunno what version of Windows I'm using, but I'm using IE 8b1. Therequiembellishere 03:00, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Yeah, I can't run that version of IE. You must be running Windows Vista (more likely) or XP.--MiamiVolts (talk) 03:02, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Probably. So how do I take the photos off on the map and into the wiki? Therequiembellishere 03:04, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- A screen capture should copy them, then paste them into an image editor, save and upload at Special:Upload.--MiamiVolts (talk) 03:22, 20 August 2008 (EDT)

- What kind of image editor should I use? Therequiembellishere 03:26, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- I like Irfanview, but you can use whatever editor you prefer, including MS Paintbrush.--MiamiVolts (talk) 03:35, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Oh, sorry. I thought I'd be adventurous and look it up and used paint. I have them all ready and saved. Do I upload and then resize? Therequiembellishere 03:40, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- And for when I do upload, are the source and destination filenames the same? Therequiembellishere 03:42, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- You can resize with paint or irfanview before you upload, or you can upload them as-is and someone else will resize to 200x250 for you. The source filename is for the file on your computer; the destination filename is what you want it to be called on the wiki. Please remember to use .jpg (lowercase).--MiamiVolts (talk) 03:46, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- So I would put under source filename "Ahlrich Dekker.jpg" and destinaiton filename "Image:Ahlrich Dekker.jpg"? Therequiembellishere 03:48, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Figured it out. Almost done now. Therequiembellishere 03:56, 20 August 2008 (EDT)

Okay, Lukas Bahn, Ahlrich Dekker, Robert Ferguson, Liza Messer, Andre Perez, Albert Rossling and Julia Ryan all now have pictures on their pages that need to be resized. I've also put them all into Portal:Evolutions Characters. Thanks for all your help! Therequiembellishere 04:12, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
Thanks or the questions
Mr Jean-Louis wants to do the interview this week so if you have any more submit them quick :). --Skywalkerrbf 15:04, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
- Thanks, I think those 3 will be it from me.--MiamiVolts (talk) 15:12, 20 August 2008 (EDT)
Take over a project?
I dunno about you, but I'm going back to school on Monday. I've been really busy mobilizing for that and working for my grandpa lately and I havent been able to keep up on my company missions project. With School coming up, I'll need to curtail my Wiki activities, and thus may not be able to finish it in a timely manner for season 3 like I wanted to. I still think it to be a worthy project for the Wiki. if you think it's worthy enough and you have the time, would you take it over, please? --SacValleyDweller (talk) 02:04, 24 August 2008 (EDT)
- Thanks for thinking of me, but I'm not sure I have the time right now, either. I've a few other projects I'm committed to finishing up first on Wiki and irl, so I think it's best you work on it as you get time. I don't think we'll suffer too much without it.--MiamiVolts (talk) 02:18, 24 August 2008 (EDT)
Happy Birthday
- Happy birthday. :) Hope Fay has been leaving you alone. (Admin 10:54, 27 August 2008 (EDT))
- Thanks. I was lucky that Fay didn't really stick around in South Florida that long.--MiamiVolts (talk) 11:18, 27 August 2008 (EDT)
