630:, the majority of the fair-use infoboxed images used to illustrate these fictional characters appear to be publicity pictures--probably lifted from NBC somewhere. Then, a few (if not more) of the characters have further non-free images which are rationaled because they typically depict the specific character using their powers, which is understandable given the reasoning and these important aspects of the characters. I want to propose the idea of replacing the publicity pictures with good screencaps of the characters that would suffice to

645:"; and since we can probably (for most characters) perform this double-purpose imaging, I wanted to bring this up here and see if anybody had any thoughts/ideas/objections. I don't personally have the episodes from which to make screencaps although some folks here might; even so, I'm sure a multitude are available online and might even serve this purpose w/o any special effort expended. ā
104:, but I personally feel that it should serve as a subsidiary portion of a greater article detailing "The Company" itself. Perhaps a listing of known employees of The Company, both past and present, and what roles they serve(d), if known. There could also be a section detailing any other front organizations that become known. We already know of Primatech, and from the information gained in

pages for the shows I'm watching and usually they very neatly steer clear from spoilers on what's going to happen further on in the show. They rather focus on what's known thusfar, and what can be deduced from the information given in the episodes upto the one your reading about. I can't and won't edit any pages, but I'm interested in your viewpoints on this...

claiming it was "redundant." Is it apparent that a character-specific template is even needed at this point? I would agree that eventually one will need to be made, but perhaps right now just keep it at a single template? There's going to be more characters introduced to the series in season two, not

has at least worked for them in the past, so there is reason to believe that we will learn that his organization serves as a front, as well. Granted, we know little of The
Company, but I believe we know enough, both through information from the series and the graphic novels, to warrant an article.
666:
I think the article about
Charlie must be deleted. It's a character appeared in 2-3 episodes and didn't have an important role. The article is more a plot description of her part in the episodes -including quotes like "You're sweet"- and nothing more. I want to ask you opinion before i nominate it

I've been reading some episode pages after seeing the first couple of shows. I noticed that they often contain small spoilers from episodes yet to come. By this I mean episodes that have aired and are covered in this great wiki project, but which the viewer may not have seen yet. I often read wiki

Maybe it's just me: but most of them seem like massive guides to every appearance that the character has had. Knowledge (XXG) shouldn't be turned into character guides, due to the show being popular and so on. I understand a lot happens in Heroes: but that's no excuse to why most of the character
347:
How to approach this? Well, in a nutshell, get sources. Lots of them. This is a highly acclaimed series, with loads of respect among viewers and critics alike. Track down any and all information (verifiable, of course) about the individual episodes - critical reaction, producer/director/actor
262:
Alright, Season 1 is officially in the books. We all have summer homework to do. Practically every single article related to Heroes is in need of major cleanup/condensing. We're looking like a bunch of amateurish fanboys, and that ain't cool. The Lost fans are laughing at us.
217:
Not just the character articles, but the episode articles, as well. They're all WAY too wordy. I plan on personally addressing this once the season is over and there's no more new content to keep up with. All it takes is a short gander at some of the episode articles for

articles are so huge. I wouldn't even want to imagine how big the articles would be, if Heroes was in a second or third season. In comparision (if you look at Lost character articles, for 3 seasons): they aren't massive guides to everything (from what I've seen at least).
