List of Heroes episodes edit

Self-nominate. I recently rewrote the article deleting the old plot summaries, adding ratings and citing sources. This will be the first featured or good page for the Heroes WikiProject. Thanks, –thedemonhog talk • edits 19:33, 28 December 2007 (UTC) P.S. This rewrite reminded me of how much second season sucked![reply]

~~Oppose~~. I think it be good to add at least one image to the page to make the reader now a bit about how the show/episode looks like but for now i be opposing the page to be featured. Pathfinder2006 20:53, 28 December 2007 (UTC) Support. The reason basically written below by other users. Pathfinder2006 12:19, 4 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Really? Anyway, I have added a cast photo. –thedemonhog talk • edits 21:07, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And it has been removed because Edokter thinks it violates WP:NFCC. I ask you to reconsider your vote. –thedemonhog talk • edits 21:31, 28 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yea, fair use images are generally a touchy subject in lists unless completely neccessary. I would say a cast photo would not be fair use. The only type of image I could imagine being ok for a list like this is a DVD box set cover or something like that. Even a logo would probably get reverted. Drewcifer (talk) 02:36, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A DVD cover would not be allowed because it identifies the DVD more than the episodes. Additionally, the only thing on the DVD cover is a logo. –thedemonhog talk • edits 03:09, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support - I especially like the addition of per episode viewership. Well done! I agree that an image would add to the page, but it certainly is not necessary - see the List of Desperate Housewives episodes FL. However, it seems to be common for DVD covers to be used in episode list FLs - List of Hitohira episodes, List of Naruto episodes (seasons 1-2), List of Devil May Cry episodes. So I think that the addition of one DVD cover in the lead would be acceptable. Cheers, Rai-me 03:36, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We used to have DVD covers at List of Lost episodes and Lost DVD releases, but they have since been removed from both. –thedemonhog talk • edits 04:29, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I would think that DVD covers would be acceptable for both articles, given that so many FLs have them. Perhaps we should consult Wikipedia:WikiProject Fair use. Cheers, Rai-me 04:41, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support. On multiple occasions images like DVD covers in an LOE have been found to fail our fair use criteria on Wikipedia. Let it be. The list meets all the other criteria, and there's no reason to oppose this good work because there are no images. -- Wikipedical (talk) 18:42, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support, though a better colour scheme wouldn't go amiss. (I created the old one, and it doesn't go well :/) Will ^(talk) 00:11, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

i.e. Not black? –thedemonhog talk • edits 00:22, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The green+black doesn't look right either on a LCD. Will ^(talk) 00:35, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What if I change the black to orange? –thedemonhog talk • edits 00:50, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's not really the black that bothers me; it's the green. Will ^(talk) 00:52, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I changed it to red. –thedemonhog talk • edits 01:07, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed. For future reference, you can set the colour in an entire row by using |-style="color: foo". It's much cleaner. Will ^(talk) 01:12, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support, the page has really improved over a short period of time, and the whole lead-in is fantastic! Щіκі RoςкЗ^(talκ) 02:57, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Support Looks great, reads well, couldn't really be improved in any way. Just wondering why in the lead "Canadian" is linked but not "American"? Oh, and there's the redlink thing. •97198 talk 11:31, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Canadian" actually links to Global Television Network, the network it airs on up here. –thedemonhog talk • edits 18:38, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

~~Weak~~ Support The only thing I'd like to see added is the "list of seasons" section, as in List of Lost episodes. I realize there are 2 seasons only, but I'd like to see a link to the second season's section. I just noticed you have a note listed among references. I think it would be more consistent with other pages to list that note seperately using {{note label}} template.--Crzy cheetah 01:27, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, some form of TOC linking to the seasons would be good. •97198 talk 01:40, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure how to use the note label template, so could you do it? Thanks, –thedemonhog talk • edits 02:45, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Done.--Crzy cheetah 05:03, 2 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
