Thanks for the back up there. I THOUGHT I remembered it being the standard but didn't want to remove it without checking so I just cleaned up the grammar. Might possibly be put on the page for the toyline itself, but not sure if it is really worth noting.--Khajidha (talk) 16:30, 28 April 2015 (EDT)

Regeneration One is explicitly a sequel to Marvel G1 continuity and belongs sequentially after it in write-ups. That's how the stories are presented, that's how it was branded, that's how the creators want it, and that's how we've written it up.

Whilst this is being talked about, it's probably worth noting that RTS Strafe hasn't reeeaaaally had its universe confirmed - it was merged with G1 Strafe for some convoluted reason during the 'AOE Strafe is a counterpart of G1 Strafe' debacle and probably should've been unmerged after all that nonsense was undone.

I see that you put a redlink to Stealth Bomber on Stealth Saber and Victory Bomber's pages. Did you intend that someone else would pick that redlink up to create a page for Stealth Bomber or did you think that Stealth Bomber didn't merit an individual page?

I understand you may not like the speculative tone, but was it really necessary to also delete the plausible explanation that the secondary star may be encased in a Dyson sphere? After all, the text clearly refer to a double star and one of the celestial body represented seems to produce a lot of light. (Besides having spot the same color than the "single" star of said same picture.) Damn... I was only trying to be thorough and objective. How could I contact Scott online so that the answer would be considered by this wiki? -- Xunk16 (talk) 06:11, 16 December 2015 (EST)
Hey, that list on your user page is awesome and really helpful.

From what I've researched, I have to agree that establishment names aren't capitalized. However, that's how The Blue Deployer is rendered in the TransTech text stories. Think that's worth noting under "Errors"? S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 16:16, 19 December 2015 (EST)
I understand that the captions are about humor over anything else, but maybe the caption should at least be a little less confrontational in tone? I'm not against humor in the article itself, but that opening caption's not exactly good humor. It's more mean-spirited than simple jokeyness that this wiki thrives upon; so I decided that a joke about Bumblebee's kid-appeal nature (and thus perceptiveness to what's popular with kids) would be a bit less potentially divisive overall, and less likely to appear mean-spirited.
I expect that sort of tone in the articles for stuff like B.O.T, The Beast or Kiss Players, the really awful, terrible stuff we have to rip into pieces because of how bad they are, not an article on My Little Pony. It's kind of like opening, say, a Soundwave article by poking fun at his speech with a disabled joke in his first image caption because of his speech pattern; it's easy and can get a few laughs, but overall it's just not worth it because not everyone will find such jokes to be really funny. And above all else, I'd like to think that we as a community are above those sorts of cheap jokes just for a few laughs.
Not trying to come off as indignant here, honest. I'm just wondering if maybe the caption joke isn't really good in any capacity. And if a caption isn't funny, then really, we shouldn't defend it just because of longevity. We obviously need the funny to stay, but to ignore potentially valid points just for the sake of a joke seems...well, kind of odd for this Wiki. We're jokey, but nowhere unappropriate have I seen the wiki's captions actually being that harsh towards a subject.
It's also a jarring shift in tone to go from "Only the dead can know peace from this evil" as an opening caption to "Don't go looking for the Tooth Fairy without it!" as the next caption down the page. They're both aiming for humor, but one's more "Ha-ha look at this silly situation!" and the other is more "Ha-ha let's make a "ponies are evil" joke because it's teh funnies!".
Again, not wanting to look entitled; but I'm curious about why the edit was reverted so quickly. MaximalBroadjaw (talk) 00:48, 27 December 2015 (EST)

They're both from Viron universes, and both technically part of the 2001 Robots in Disguise continuity. Someone could be all like, "Wait, I though RID's Grimlock was a big green backhoe. Who's this Dinosaur?" Imagine if there were two Optimus Primes in one continuity, even if they looked completely different, would it not be within reason to distinct the two from one another?—The preceding unsigned comment was added by PsychoShark (talk • contribs).
While going through my talk page, I noticed that PsychoShark mentioned that the note he added to Grimlock (Dinobots) was based on a similar note from Slapper (Dinobots). Seeing as how we've deemed the other one unnecessary, I thought you might want to remove the one on Slapper's page. -Foffy the Sheep (talk) 07:44, 7 February 2016 (EST)
If it's of interest to you for your user page list, I've seen that Nitpick, Comet, Beamer, NightViper, Kickstart, Heavyfoot, Ironclad, Fastbreak, Aston, Miss-Q, "Kamen Rider Amazon", Time Limit, Clutch, and Warpath all have indeterminate cluster origin, albeit that they're all intentionally ambiguous and/or their origins are unlikely to ever be revisited.

With screencaps for episodes whose titles have been disambiguated, you can use the "eptitle" parameter to set the text of the link different from the actual link. For example, with Volcano (episode) from RID, you would put
{{RID2001cap|description.|Volcano (episode)|1|eptitle=Volcano}}.
Then, the link will show up like this: Volcano
Nice work on all that cleanup, by the way. Cheers! -Foffy the Sheep (talk) 20:33, 1 March 2016 (EST)
Okay, examples to try and clarify:
As demonstrated in the dictionary entries I posted, Japanese dictionaries dont give readers the symbolic runaround that the Dinoforce pages were using -- they simply treat "Gairyuu" as the word for an Ankylosaurus. I suppose I may be being somewhat oversensitive, but choosing to render Japanese words in a symbolic breakdown like that, contrary to how it's intended to be interpreted, feels a lot like refusing to acknowledge that it even has words for these concepts, and feels kind of Tarzanesque? I don't feel it's removing information, since to a Japanese speaker, Gairyuu doesn't mean "Armored Dragon" -- it means Ankylosaurus, just like to an English speaker (or Greek, if you want), Ankylosaurus doesn't "fused lizard", it means a type of dinosaur with an armored back and club tail --fused lizard is just the root of the name.
In addition, while many Japanese names for Dinosaur use "ryuu" in a similar manner to how English uses "saur", "ryuu" itself does not mean dinosaur, nor are dinosaur called "ryuu" -- as with English, they are instead called "恐竜", or "Ferocious dragon". I mean, "-saur" would be a workable translation of "ryuu", no complaints, but as in English "saur" is used to refer to more than just dinosaurs (e.g. Pterosaurs, Plesiosaurs, etc.) And in fact, Pterosaurs and Plesiosaurs include 竜 in their Japanese rendering.
I definitely see the value in retaining the kanji meanings here, especially if that's a thing we're going to be doing with characters like Triceradon, too. But I think we should make it clear that those are the root of the names, rather than treating the Japanese names as if they don't have specific direct meanings that a Japanese speaker would recognize.KrytenKoro (talk) 01:11, 2 March 2016 (EST)

I understand talk pages are not chat rooms. The reason I posted that was because the article itself seems to question why the chest is transparent, so I thought that might explain it. I didn't just go and edit the page because I knew it would be undone. Avalanche (talk) 21:03, 10 April 2016 (EDT)
Here's my take, for what it's worth. A good write-up is not a list of things that happened one after the other. A good write-up is a story unto itself. It is the story of that character, and it should read as "complete". And when the cartoon or comic adventures of that character stops abruptly - when a character's final appearance is as a face in a crowd and they receive no personal "finale" - then it's the job of the write-up to note that they "were last seen"/"last appeared"/"made their final recorded appearance", etc, to bring that write-up's "story" to its end, instead of, essentially, just stopping in what reads as mid-story. The complete BWII write-up of the Autorollers just stops mid-story. It does not read as complete. At best, a reader's reaction is "Oh, huh, I guess that's it, then," instead of knowing that they are reading an end - but really, an less-informed reader has no reason to assume there isn't more just because there's isn't a stub saying so. We don't always have stubs! There shouldn't be any expectation on the reader to know that storylinked title is the final episode, if it even is. The write-up needs to say this is "the end" for that character. Yes, they return for a cameo in BWN, but that's a separate header. The were "last seen" during the battle on Gaea in that moment. It's no more "out of universe" than describing art or writing errors as "anomalous accounts" or "erroneous reports" is. I'm not getting into an edit war or even fighting to make this change; I'm just saying, it's pretty standard "handbook" write-up terminology, how I write mine, and how I will continue to write them. - Chris McFeely (talk) 17:05, 25 April 2016 (EDT)

the dinobot were reference in prime season 3 were they not? RID 2015 is the sequel to prime is it not. so why are not adding prime to that page. Yes they were only reference. but still though wouldn't it make more sense for that cartoon in that dinobot section. i mean are more a sequel to the game when you stop to think about it. Also there is no evidence supporting the fact were referring to the fall of cybertron version of the dinobots.--Projectus (talk) 04:29, 12 August 2016 (EDT)

Saix, I know there is currently no official parameter and that it's not within the wiki's obligation to decide upon an arbitrary translation, but some of the transliterations, even by Chinese (BOTH Taiwanese and Mainland Chinese) standards, are just flat out nonsensical and frivolous. I hope you understand that there are multiple ways (via synonyms) to translate the hanzi, and I can speak from experience behind the screen as a bilingual Mandarin-English speaker, and as a professor's teaching assistant in Elementary Chinese irl. The Seeker (talk) 10:50, 14 September 2016 (EDT)
I didn't use Google Translate. I consulted with native speaking relatives and peers and utilized Systransoft.com as well as MDBG, which I find for both to be more adequate. Bluestreak's sniper rifle, from the hanzi I recognize, can have synonymous possibilities. Certainly, "Destiny" can be interchanged with "Fate", altho I will admit, the second half of the title can be considered as: "war casualty" or "death" in general. For the second example, there's clearly no resemblance to an actual F-Type Wrench whatsoever, so I find even calling that weapon an "F-Type" in practicality to be redundant. (I've been a workshop assistant for a good year or so, so I've been familiar enough with tools in the shed.) If anything, Wheeljack's Melee weapon is identified as a Pipe Wrench, so shame on Tencent for the misleading name. The Seeker (talk) 15:19, 14 September 2016 (EDT)
first of all, i know the story has deluge as both, but in most universe, he's and his decepticon counterpart are there own individual. i was trying to make that clear to the people reading that story, but you thought i was too stupid to realize that, i mean yes the blackout thing was stupid on my part. but seriously you could have easily edited it to say that this Deluge is a amalgam of both version.--Projectus (talk) 21:29, 28 December 2016 (EST)

It's not needless my friend, it's just extra information that many Transformers fans I know would be happy to find on here. Please don't revert people's notes, even if you feel that it's "needless". If anything, I'm adding notes, not pruning them. Smh.
Like you, my first instinct when I created the article was to use lower case for "for", as is grammatically correct, but the official title actually leaves it capitalized (see here). By comparison, other TR episode titles that have conjunctions or articles choose to use lower case as normal ("Aftermath and Rebirth", "At the Last Second", etc.), so the capitalization of For stands out by comparison. Thus, technically, the title was more accurate as it was. -- Cyberlink420 (talk) 12:35, 2 January 2018 (EST)
Why did you remove the note about SG Fistfight's deco? Do you dispute that it's true, that it's verifiable, or that it's noteworthy?
It's true that he's orange and black, as verified by Transhuman. As for it being noteworthy, This character has no official visual representation whatsoever... yet, at least, so shouldn't we at least mention what we know about his physical appearance?
As for his sharing Tyrannitron's deco, G1 Fistfight and Tyrannitron were Action Master partners of opposing factions, just like Skyfall and Banzai-Tron were Action Masters of opposing factions (so SG Skyfall got G1 Banzai-Tron's deco), the Technobots and Terrorcons were combiners of opposing factions (so the SG teams swapped decos), etc. Moreover, G1 Fistfight and Tyrannitron were partnered with Shockwave and a Dinobot, respectively, further emphasizing a rivalry for SG to flip around.
If you look at almost any SG character's article, we typically note what inspired or seems to have inspired that character's deco, even if it is unconfirmed.
Speaking of unconfirmed, why does everyone insist that Generation 1 Zaptrap was officially repurposed as Shattered Glass Shrapnel if his only appearance colors him like someone else? i'd appreciate your comments here, please.
--Rhymus (talk) 04:50, 14 January 2018 (EST)
I get that Japan never identified the Crossformers (or the Dinoforce) as Pretenders, but the TransTech story "Gone Too Far" does refer to Black Shadow as both a Crossformer and a Pretender, with Hubcap referring to him as "some kind of Pretender!", Jackpot asking "Who ever heard of a Pretender with a robotic shell? I hate this universe!", and the narration reading "He had hoped that the Pretender’s focus would be split between controlling both the shell and his own body." Granted, all three of these could arguably be just from the perspective of those two Autobots, using a term that's familiar to them to refer to a kind of Transformer they've never encountered before, but I figured it was at least worth pointing out. --Sabrblade (talk) 17:04, 19 January 2018 (EST)

Just wondering why you'd change it. In character synopsis articles we usually break up the character's history into smaller sections. In this case, literal millions of years have passed between the Lost Light's adventures in the Functionist universe and the arrival of Council-controlled Primus in the main universe. If anything necessitates the addition of a new section, it's this. Is the article just not long enough to be split up? Or is there some other reason?

Hi, I'd just like to apologize for overfixating on sneaking in complaints about Masterpiece Megatron's Japanese voicebox. I made the mistake of thinking that the wiki's informal tone gives people leave to treat it like a TV Tropes YMMV page, and I based most of those edits on YouTube comments that I saw that affirmed my own opinion at the time (that is, that the Japanese voice box drives the price up merely to affirm that the toy represents a wackier and less threatening version of the character that is absolutely not my literal David Kaye-voiced husbando).
I should absolutely find other things to edit, to focus on useful information (such as poseability, objective comparisons between figures, etc.) rather than using the wiki to vent my salt boner. (As for my previous opinion, I'm starting to realize that Chiba's voice clips probably didn't inflate Megs' price that much, since MP Dinobot comes with no sound gimmick and is nearly as expensive.) --Samus Aran (talk) 00:36, 23 May 2019 (EDT)

Thanks for catching that one. Given how rarely non-characters have franchise tag disambiguations as opposed to "story", "episode", "polity", etc., I felt that we were more likely doing a disservice to our users by insisting on not giving Paddles the (G1) disambig. I hadn't even noticed that the same situation applied to Transmutate. --Khajidha (talk) 11:47, 13 September 2019 (EDT)
I was looking for someone to ask: when is something a reference, then? I was operating under the impression that something like, say, Cyberverse Shockwave threatens to take over the Decepticons when nearly every cartoon version of the character has been a staunch loyalist (except for Energon Shockblast) would be surprising to people who don't know about the character's comic history.
I was going to add a note about Snake and Simon ending up in another fighting game together, but stopped after seeing the edit history. You stated that "Now that it's not a unique thing, it's not worth noting." To my understanding, they're the only two characters who have articles on this wiki that ended up in Smash Bros., especially since they both ended up in the same game. What is it about this that makes it not unique or unnoteworthy as trivia? I'm not necessarily against the decision, but am curious about the reason. --King Starscream (talk) 16:01, 8 October 2019 (EDT)

Hey, would you be able to help me out in figuring out what the Japanese names of the Great Transformation are? When Optimus mentions it in Episode 26's Japanese dub, I can hear him say 素晴らしい変化 (subarashī henka), which makes sense. But in Episode 1's Japanese dub, I can't tell exactly what the Oracle is saying due to its voice being so echo-y.

While I appreciate your efforts changing links, I just put in requests for Teletraan-X to do it. Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 23:40, 4 January 2021 (EST)
There's a couple of guys who don't have their United EX names in Katakana: I think Detritus, Roadblock, Grindcore, Gravedigger, and Clouder are all the ones that need it. Escargon (talk) 18:02, 10 January 2021 (EST)
A couple of the Siege/Earthrise guys (Trip-Up and Daddy-O, at least) need their Japanese names added in. Escargon (talk) 14:26, 22 January 2021 (EST)
Just curious.

I think this is most likely Big Convoy.
There are only two other characters that share his silholuette. Nemesis and Ultra Mammoth. However;
It's either Big Convoy or an early appearance of Nemesis Prime.--Primestar3 (talk) 13:24, 16 March 2021 (EDT)
Yes, I'm aware of the events of The return of Blurr; but considering that Legends is a Japanese comic, I just made a joke about the fact that in Japan the last time somebody saw Blurr was in the cartoon itself, when (after killing him) Shockwave orders to Cliffjumper to dispose of his body. Sorry :) --Grievous Prime (talk) 16:56, 16 March 2021 (EDT)
Was wondering what you thought about me making this a thing? Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 04:37, 18 March 2021 (EDT)

I just wanted to apologize if I came off rudely towards you. We had different perspectives and you were right. I'm sorry if I came off as acting in any way other than in good faith of keeping the wiki organized. TransFormersfan1 (talk) 16:10, 24 June 2021 (EDT)
Hey, why'd you go and delete my message on the Hot Shot (Armada) toys talk page thing? I think that that was a tad bit uncalled for. Besides I thought that the talk things were for discussing stuff. I never saw something that said that I couldn't respond to stuff. Mind you, I'm not saying that it doesn't exist, I'm just saying that I never saw it. Also, I hope that I'm not overstepping by asking, but do you even have the authority to remove my post in that sense? I'm asking as I don't know who's in charge on this wiki. Beetle Bug (talk) 12:27, 12 July 2021 (EDT)
Why'd you remove my Blackarachnia (Animated) toy stuff? That's pretty accurate. It covered it in the show. She is "an Archa Seven arachnid in a black widow-esque variant". So like what's wrong? I get the grammar part, but not the whole content. Beetle Bug (talk) 00:45, 9 August 2021 (EDT)
I noticed that you removed my question on Predaking's (Prime) talk page, and my edits on Primus' toys in regards to the cities. Was there something wrong with them? If so, what? So I can avoid making that mistake in the future, as I only want to help improve this wiki for others, not be one of the problems it has. Beetle Bug (talk) 12:18, 17 August 2021 (EDT)
Can you please stop editing the ID number page? I have a huge edit I wanna save but I can't because of the editing conflicts that will ensue. Fanofcoolstuff27 (talk) 11:54, 19 August 2021 (EDT)
Hey, I see you've updated the term in many places to start with a capital letter. Looking at pages 3, 7, 16, and 20, it's fully lowercase. Seems to me that it's being treated as a common noun, more of a slang synonym for "bounty hunter" and not a proper noun for a subgroup like "Wrecker", at least at this point in the story. I think we should adhere to the fiction and treat it as a common noun as well. Genitus (talk) 20:51, 26 August 2021 (EDT)
There are three volumes involved in Legends comics: the original strips, the Bonus Editions, and the Bonus Edition Extra volumes. Because there are multiple EX volumes, labeling storylinks as "Bonus Edition Vol EX" is not suitably descriptive. It's the equivalent of stating "RID Annual" when there are multiple annuals. For clarity, EX storylinks should be cited as "Bonus Edition EX Greatshot", "Bonus Edition EX Grand Maximus" or "Bonus Edition EX Metroplex" instead of listing all as "Bonus Edition Vol EX". Agreeable? --Xaaron (talk) 11:06, 9 September 2021 (EDT)
I apologize - I misunderstood what you had added to that page, and at first reverted based on that misunderstanding. --Thylacine 2000 (talk) 16:55, 15 September 2021 (EDT)
They aren't frivolous. Tylerwu (talk) 18:24, 4 February 2022 (EST)
Just a heads-up, but that template is really only for character pages with NO visual representation of the character whatsoever. A toy picture is perfectly fine as a main pic until it can be replaced with art. --M Sipher (talk) 01:27, 14 July 2022 (EDT)
OK thank on clarifying that but why were the rest of my edits removed/undone? ElitaOne (talk) 20:17, 19 September 2022 (EDT)
Hey, don’t mean to disrespect but why are you deleting my edits? I accept the first one might not have been informative enough, I thought the second one was good. Many other US issues talk about this exact topic, and having just read “back from the dead“ I was surprised the continuity issue wasn’t mentioned there. Happy to have your professional feedback. Thanks Levyshahar (talk) 13:59, 11 October 2022 (EDT)
I honestly can't explain why I went for Energon Megatron over TR Galvatron. That one was my bad, sorry. ThatGuy79 (talk) 14:03, 29 March 2023 (EDT)
There's been a fair number of rapid reversions coupled with odd comments recently. Is there a beef that I'm not aware of? Banpei the Mini-Con (talk) 21:50, 26 April 2023 (EDT)
Do you really think his and the Car Vehicon's alt modes don't look similar at all? If so, why? SerafettinB (talk) 10:04, 26 April 2023 (TRT)
Is issue four supposed to stay the same? -- Usfmm (talk) 22:45, 20 February 2024 (EST)
Could you please explain why you reverted my edits? I added the Simmons quote because it's the only place where the book is ever named. Also why did you remove the External links as they are also the only place we've had confirmation of the book cover. Also that quote on the other image I left alone because I thought it was policy that quotes for images were left to those who uploaded the images. Thanks. Astrobotix (talk) 23:51, 21 March 2024 (EDT)
Sorry for messing with the Predacon names on the 'Beast Creator' page! I even missed the bit of the edit history where someone did the exact same thing and you had to do the work of reverting it. I would feel bad for just the once, but I can imagine two separate occasions would be really annoying. Again, I am genuinely sorry and I didn't mean to make such a mess of it. I'll stick it in my watchlist and keep an eye on it in case someone else tries to do the same thing. Spacebridge Technician (talk) 12:29, 28 March 2024 (EDT)
As far as I can tell, people don't treat the idea of "Big Long Haul" as a redesign or a fun idea--they treat this as if he actually is supposed to be that big, and him being the same size as his teammates is a scaling error, similar to Blast Off or Groove. The wiki itself described him as such in its articles on scale, when it's actually not a scaling error; his size is actually about right. Media depicting him as such is going off the idea that it was a scaling error when it wasn't. Hell, even Long Haul's page caption describes that scene of him ramming Optimus as "correct" scale.MBG (talk) 14:30, 6 April 2024 (EDT)
Hi I saw you deleted my comment about Animated Shockwave looking like Hal 9000 for it not being a refreence. I know I've made posts like it before where I've made connections like that and I realise it's not appropriate for the wiki and I promise not to do it again and I am truly sorry. Is it okay for me to remove the tag you put on my page about it? I Hope this doesn't bother you StarGayCybertron (talk) 18:30, 20 April 2024 (BST)
So... what are we gonna do about that dead discussion, are we gonna let it there forever? Doesn't look like the best thing to do in my opinion... Astrum (talk) 17:39, 20 April 2024 (EDT)
Why did you revert my changes on the Transformers One page stating that it's connected to the rest of the live-action movie series? The director has made statements saying it is not. As stated here: https://comicbook.com/movies/news/transformers-one-optimus-prime-origin-story-chris-hemsworth-josh-cooley/ TFEarthConquest (talk) 14:10, 22 April 2024 (PST)
That image sat there for around 4 1/2 years, why remove it now? Brickmaster57 (talk) 03:05, 30 April 2024 (EDT)
A lot of your edits are things like removing a bunch of images from pages, or removing specific notes. Like man, can you give a good reason as to why you do all that. SerafettinB (talk) 16:48, 10 January 2025 (TRT)
In case the website hosting the interview goes down at some point in the future. Omegatron (talk) 17:12, 3 March 2025 (EST)
Lemme just clear things up: I made an account for this site a couple minutes ago and I decided I wanted to do my first edit on some page, and I landed on Sizzle (G2), by adding an image from the comic page from where he’s ducking from Sideswipe in the dream he had before he died (RIP). I soon noticed you took it off because it was a little too big (I noticed that myself), so I want some advice and want to know what I can help with, if there’s anything of course. Why you? I don’t really know, but you look experienced. MAYHEM4EVA (talk) 18:42, 5 March 2025 (EST) Ok, it was the squiggles
Hey, I've noticed that you've removed a bunch of {{TOCclear}}s from page headers, is this part of the wiki's formatting policy? Personally, I think the ToCclear looks way better on some pages like Jogo dos Transformers, it's more aesthetically pleasing to have a separation between the opening paragraph and its respective image and the rest of the text, but in all honesty, I don't know if this is a formatting standard that we're obliged to maintain. (FortressMaxxing (talk) 04:33, 27 March 2025 (EDT)).
Curious, why did you edit the wave 2 energy beasts description to all have masculine pronouns as opposed to non-binary ones? I don't know if there's concrete proof they're all male.Poliwag06 (talk) 09:27, 4 May 2025 (EDT)
Good morning! To answer your question - all caps on MOOK is how Hobby Japan stylizes it for their titles, like "ホビージャパンMOOK". Then most websites selling them follow suit. I’d say it boils down to if you’re using their proper noun, or just the generic term. Alpha Trihard (talk) 13:53, 27 May 2025 (EDT)
