Category talk:The 4400

From The 4400 Wiki, a fan encyclopedia that anyone can edit.

Does this category only cover people? I assume so, since The 4400 Center isn't included. I wasn't sure if I should put Nova Group in here or not. I think it's probably not appropriate here. --Mateo 23:50, 16 June 2006 (EDT)

Yeah, only members of the 4400. --Vigilyn 10:00, 17 June 2006 (EDT)

These kind of lists are usually sorted by surname rather than first name. Another option would be to have two lists (on the same page) - 'by first name', 'by surname'. Happy to do, if people agree? --Cuddly4402, 21 June 2006

This is a category page. It's automatically sorted by the name of the person's article. In order to sort by surname you would have to rename all of the articles, making them like this "Tyler, Isabelle" and so forth. I'm not sure if I think we should do that. That's not the way other wikis title the name of characters (lostpedia, battlestar wiki for example). I think it looks better this way, even with the unfortunate side effect of having the category people list them by first name. When we have completed enough of the basic information we could possible make a Portal page for characters and list them any way we wanted. --Mateo 09:30, 22 June 2006 (EDT)

Hi guys! I just added some other 4400s to the list, who were known just by their name. They were introduced during the first episode when Tom and Diana were shuffling through the interviews of the returnees - one of them was also seen later, on Episode:The Fifth Page. (Call me crazy, but I just want to see if we will "ever" get anything close to learning the names of all 4400 of the 4400 :-)) -- Colorwind

[edit] Powers or Abilities?

I'm concerned that we might be referring to the 4400 "powers" incorrectly. It seems to me that they more often refer to them as abilities. I've noticed this particularly since the promicin storyline. Should we rename the Character template to say "Ability" instead of "Power"? --Mateo 19:22, 28 August 2006 (EDT)

[edit] Deceased

What do people think about putting (deceased) on the listing next to those 440 that are deceased? --GeoMike 22:31, 6 September 2006 (EDT)

Mike - quit trying to discredit dead characters. --The Radio Star 03:02, 29 October 2006 (EST)

[edit] Best List on the Internet?

I think we have the best list of the 4400 on the Internet. Only 56 of the 4400 have been shown or mentioned. ----

So far we have 60 people, or 1.36% of the 4400. --The Radio Star 03:01, 29 October 2006 (EST)
