Hello! Over a year and a half ago, you brought up some good discussion on the talk page for "

thanks for writing. I know what you mean about there not being a lot of citations out there yet, but that's mostly because while the strike might be likely. it isn't for sure yet. Furthermore, what Kring is doing is speculating himself as to the fate of the season if the strike happens. Now, normally Kring is the very best kind of noteworthy that we need to include his updates. However, since Kring doesn't know about the fate of the series (the strike being outside his sphere of control) it diminishes the reliability of his statements that speak to specifically that. It's essentially a 'what if?' scenario that is too shaky for us to consider including until something more definite is announced. There really isn't a hurry, as we are not tasked to be Johnny On the Spot. We just need to have rock solid info. If that means we need to wait to hear from NMC or the Writer's Guild, then so be it. Also note that we cannot tie a statement from the Writer's Guild about striking to Heroes unless we have a citation that speaks specifically to the series; otherwise, its OR by synthesis. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 15:29, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it is Kring's show, but it isn't Kring's network, or Kring's writing guild. A solution could present itself at the 11th hour, resolving hte issues and avert a strike. origins might have to wait a while, but it wouldn't interfere with the main series. Kring is not a reliable source on the strike, and neither is his speculation on how it will affect his series. He just isn't a reliable source on that subject. His show isn't derailed yet. When it is, then those comments become a fulfilled prophecy, which can then be added.

I don't humor people, Dposse, as i think it's patronizing to do so. I either help, or I don't. As you seem to be a genuinely helpful guy, I did look around, and couldn't find a transcript or a solid enough citation to give to you. That I couldn't find one isn't unusual, as I am not the James Bond of research. That one wasn't readily apparent tells me that not enough info is on hand to add info to the article as of yet. You could email G4 themselves and ask for a transcript. Even better, you could have them tell you where one is online, so you can cite the location. - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 15:54, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know you are. We're aces. :) - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 16:02, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

If you find it, post it on the discussion page. I am all for consensus, and you now have the advantage of knowing that I don't think we should be using it at this time, so you can construct your post accordingly. I am but one voice, and it counts no more than yours, D. this is what that whole politeness thing is all about. :) - Arcayne (^{cast a spell}) 16:15, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

you really have to pay attention to the flow of the overall page. i have not removed origins. it have been mopved to a different section of the article. if you scroll down the heroes page, you will notice that it is under the section of television. since origins has been postponed, it is not a part of the storyline or plot as of yet. i am sure when nbc brings the series back it will relate more to the series, but right now, it is in the section entitled television. by you placing it under plot, you have actually placed the exact same section Twice on the page. now, it is under plot and under television. origins has not been removed from the page. it has been moved to a different section on the same page —Preceding unsigned comment added by Chrisisinchrist (talk • contribs) 17:20, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The original change to move heroes origins was not mine. Someone reorganized the page and including Heroes origins in a new section of the main page, entitled television. it makes mroe sense that way. Origins is not significant to the plot, so why would it go under plot. Like i said, i didnt make the original change, but i agree with the person who made it. The plot section is the section designated to what is happening in the current plot summary of the story, not future projects which have been shelved. if you feel like the origins section should remain in the plot summary page, you discuss it on the talk page...but like i said, i didnt make the original change...i just feel like it doesnt make sense for their to be two sections on origins on the same page. why wouldnt it go under television section? origins is not significant to the plot summary. it hasnt been proven that it is.--Chrisisinchrist 17:34, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to discuss this on the talk page, because this is pointless. also, heroes origins is not a backstory show. the plot of the show is to introduce two characters per episode and give a story about those characters. the characters are new characters and not ones that we have seen on the show before. you can find more information on this at the 9th wonder page. but just so you know, the characters from the heroes show will not be featured in the series. tim kring has stated that they may make appearances and cameos only.--Chrisisinchrist 17:40, 4 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Hey. Sorry if I came across as contentious. I was very concerned at the beginning when names were being added to the list in a haphazard fashion. I guess I got a little defensive with all the counter-arguments coming at me. After stepping back, it looks like we have enough editors now to make sure that information from the report is used responsibly. I'll mea culpa on the talk page, too. --Elliskev 22:02, 13 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

fine. i am not normally an editor of this article, however i added content that (being in chicago) is easy for me to get. as far as the comment on barak goes, i think it needs to stay. if you want i will edit it down.

I was just looking for news sources on the item recently too, and they all just seem to have tidbits of information. I haven't seen any article with relevant non-trivial information on it. I think it'll be this way until someone comes along with good sourced information. Schnarr 04:34, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
