[edit] Your comment

Ice Vision; We may well have a minor difference of opinion regarding the suitability of certain pseudonyms for Heroes characters. However, that does not in any way justify the comment you left at Ando Masahashi. I, for one, would appreciate it if you could keep this in mind before hitting "SAVE". Thank you. --Ckatzchatspy 18:18, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

I just read The Urine Monster to my friend on the phone and we found it hilarious. Send me a link if you write anything else like that; that was great. Joie de Vivre 03:00, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Your comment, once again

Ice, seeing as how this is the second time I've had to ask you to be civil, what's up? There was no reason for the snarky comment at the Heroes article, especially since your assertion was wrong. The text did refer to a solar eclipse in the preceding sentence. The text I reverted, however, dealt specifically with a terrestrial eclipse - and as such "Moon" is incorrect. Look, I certainly don't mind being corrected if I make a mistake - but I really object to a bad-faith, insulting comment when you've not even got the facts straight. --Ckatzchatspy 08:34, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Okay, then that was my fault. However, I've checked your contributions and virtually all of your edits are "revert this, and undo that." You constantly revert beneficial trivia and notes without a specified reason. I just found it hard to believe that you were actually serious. But, I should have read more carefully. I apologize.--Ice Vision (talk) 16:51, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why is "spinach" so important to you?

I'm watching the interaction and, other than a reason to annoy Ckatz, I don't see what "spinach" adds to the Sylar article. Can you help me out here? If he had used his TK to move a tomato juice can would we have a different outlook on the situation? I'm failing to see why anyone cares what type of can was used to portray the event. If I'm missing something please let me know. Padillah (talk) 18:11, 19 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Why is that such a big deal? I just added the word "spinach". Ckatz continuously reverts edits (although most are reasonable, some are not). Don't we strive for accuracy on Wikipedia? "Spinach" describes the can, and may be connected to the widely-accepted Popeye reference. I think you should think this through.--Ice Vision (talk) 20:47, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
Actually using "spinach" to describe the can is superfluous. It's not needed and only adds words to the article. What is this "widely-accepted Popeye reference"? Are some people equating Sylar to Popeye? If they are using the can as a reference then they are misusing the episode. The can didn't give him his power back (nor, more in-line with Popeye, increase his power) so to hinge an arguably obscure fan speculation on this point is unstable at best. There is no inaccuracy in describing the item as a can so your "accuracy" argument is shaky. And describing it as a "psinach can" affords no better understanding nor insight into the event than simply stating it's a can. If there were reason to believe the material make-up of the can were significant than "tin can" would be appropriate... but there's not. We are not just adding words to articles because they are there. We add facts to articles to expound on the subject. The former contents of the can are of little to no consequence to Sylar. In point of fact the can itself is of little consequence, simply the act of using his powers was what the scene was meant to portray. You have now had this particular edit reverted by at least three other editors, let it drop please. Now you're starting to get EditWar notices. Unless you REALLY love this word, I'd drop it. Padillah (talk) 21:15, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
Unbelievable. Simply unbelievable. You are making such a big deal of another user's addition of one simple word, "spinach". I thought it was rude and inconsiderate that an innocent and accurate edit was reverted. That's why I reverted those edits. And, no I am not equating Sylar to Popeye. In fact, I couldn't care less about Popeye. I only mentioned it because I needed an excuse for making the change (forget I ever mentioned Popeye). Why? Because you can't seem to accept the adding of the word "spinach". I don't know why you are behaving this way. If I incited this behavior, then I apologize. I am truly sorry. One last thing, I really like the word. Although spinach isn't the most delicious food, the word "spinach" just sounds so cool. Might I ask again why we are arguing over something so trivial? Will it make that big of a deal if the word "spinach" was in the article (not to mention, the can is indeed a spinach can). Well, that's the end of my rant. --Ice Vision (talk) 21:24, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
First off, I'd like to clarify, I am not the one that fought so hard to blow this out of proportion. That was you and Ckatz. I only stepped in after it got out of hand to avert an edit war I saw coming. If you are a fan of the word then "more power to ya" but you must also remember that Wikipedia is a forum for different minds and not all of those minds are alike. So you made a suggestion, a perfectly rational, fact-based suggestion. Someone else saw it and had another side to their story. It then falls to you to look at that side and determine which argument is more valid. If you think you are being slighted then call for a consensus vote. What you don't do is get into an edit war over it and get yourself or someone else banned. It's not your love of the word "spinach" but your refusal to see the other side of an argument that may well lead you to get banned from WP permanently. I've warned you, others have warned you. I've called for a consensus vote and will abide by whatever the consensus says. Now the next step is to drop it and walk away. For what it's worth, you have a perfectly valid argument and I hope you win. Padillah (talk) 12:54, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] December 2007

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Sylar. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors.

[edit] Just to let you know

My comment wasn't necessarily directed at you. While I did sense that soon after you found dissidence to your descriptor, you had a slight personal relationship with the edit, I didn't feel that that was your only reason for the adjective. However, there have been other edits by other editors that did feel that the only reason for the additions were for personal self-esteem. PureSoldier (talk) 20:19, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

  • Okay, I understand. --Ice Vision (talk) 20:33, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

Just wanted you to know that I'm reviving the Sylar-spinach connection as relevent. Peace + Spinach, --Pgagnon999 (talk) 02:07, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Bob Bishop

I'm not removing your edit because I agree that it is Bob and I think the other guy is acting out of hand, but where has it been confirmed besides the comic itself?--CyberGhostface (talk) 23:39, 21 January 2008 (UTC)

I don't think it is "confirmed" anywhere else, but it doesn't need to be. The graphic novel confirms it, basically. --Ice Vision (talk) 03:06, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
The graphic novel doesn't confirm that it is him. May look similar to him, may have the same ability, but the Golden Goose character was not named. QuasiAbstract (talk) 08:33, 22 January 2008 (UTC)
So, you think it's a new character, huh? Why are you ignoring logic and common sense? --Ice Vision (talk) 23:10, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
I realize that this is from almost a month ago, but just to clarify. "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth. "Verifiable" in this context means that readers should be able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source. Editors should provide a reliable source for quotations and for any material that is challenged or is likely to be challenged, or it may be removed." The character was not explicitly stated as anyone, so not verified. Using logic, would be using original research to use clues to reach a result. I did not do this, as it would not have been verifiable. Now, the material is verified, and I have no problem with it. I hope this clears up what my problem had been. ~QuasiAbstract (talk/contrib) 09:44, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] peer review

I was wondering if you could take some time out of your schedule to head over to the Heroes (TV series) talkpage and give us an honest peer review. The page has gone through some major changes in the last few months, and it would be fantastic if a prominent editor/contributor like yourself, could head over and give us at the Heroes Wikiproject some sound opinion and ideas on improvements for the page. We have all worked very hard at improving the page, and we need great outside, reliable and trustworthy users to come over and help us improve. I you are interested in joining the peer review discussion with other prominent users/contributors, much like yourself, please follow the link. Thank you very much for your help and your continued effort to improve Wikipedia and its quality!
