==Beast Wars Neo==

*Should Artemis really be under "BWN Character"? Her appearance in the show was in the last episode during an ending credits montage. It was a "blink and you'll miss it" sort of thing. And if we do put her under BWN Characters, should I go ahead and put nearly all the cast of BWII under that category, too? All the surviving cast appeared in that montage. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 16:23, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
**I was the one who put in the category; I'm pretty apathetic whether it's there or not. Feel free to take it out if you wanna. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 16:39, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
*Cool. I'm just gonna take it out for the sake of consistency. --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 16:45, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

==Stuff==

As long as I'm questioning source material... where do we have it from that Artemis is a Transformer? I was under the impression that she was some kind of observation android living within the moon of planet Gaea, which... would I guess make her a human creation, since RM LioConvoy's bio revealed that Gaea was future Earth.

(Whether it was specifically Earth at the time of the Beast Wars or if LioConvoy and crew had travelled even further into the future, I'm not sure.)

As to her presence on Cybertron at the end of Neo, uh. No idea. Cast party? --[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 01:53, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

This is totally fannon and not even a little bit supported in show, but I like to imagine she was another (lesser) member of Cybertron's pantheon along with Primus, the Chronarchitect, and Unicron. One of the light gods mentioned in the first PRimus origin. Sort of his little sister. Goes with the goddess name. But that's just my personal imagining.

In cannon, I wonder... since the BW2 world is future destroyed Earth and Bob and Larry speculated up the whole Vox destroyed earth and wipped it out, so the TFs made it off-limits stuff, maybe she was some sort of guardian/observer the TFs left behind to watch over the ruined place for them? Granted, that's all speculation TOO, just not quite as grandious as my prefered exp. :)

:It's nice that you have a personal continuity.
:Sadly, Artemis's presence as guardian of Gaea has nothign to do with the Vok wiping out humanity. Gaea's native population moved out among the stars and left Gaea when the Amogolis Energy their planet was infused with made it too difficult to continuine living there. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 02:29, 9 July 2006 (UTC)

So humans abandoned Earth when Unicron's energy infected it. Wonder what the timeframe for that is. Could be that was why the MAx elders made the place off-limits? IT was infected by Unicron?

== Unused joke potential... ==

Artmemis, the voluptuous female character, is deeply enamored with the [[Scuba|tentacled alien]]... Goddammit Japan... When we get more screencaps, someone HAS to make a joke about this. It's too good to pass up. --[[User:Ascendron|Ascendron]] 21:49, 19 June 2009 (EDT)

I'm not sure the Predacon badge was all that appropriate - and a Maximal one might not be, either. So, would it be best just to use the Celestial one instead? --[[User:Nerroth|Nerroth]] 02:35, 16 March 2010 (EDT)
:The Predacon badge is right because she was listed as a Predacon in the game. A Celestial badge can be added to it, but not replace it. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 02:41, 16 March 2010 (EDT)
plus she likes starscream, who is a predacon

==cartoon-only???==
while she may have not appeared in the idw comics, she did appear in the manga, didn't she?

[[Image:MoonBWII1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"You crack me up, little buddy!" "Whatever."]]

While a transforming bunny rabbit, '''Moon''' (ムーン ''Mūn'') is not of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertronian]] origin, but is a relic from the past of [[Gaea]] (future [[Earth]]). He is stationed on the moon orbiting the planet along with his partner, [[Artemis]]. Together, they watch the battle unfold between the [[Maximal|Maximals]] and the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]], gathering data in secret. He also ends every sentence with the word "moon".

Moon's special ability is the power to become invisible. He's also remarkably good at saying things that upset Artemis. He's ''not'' so good at avoiding the giant red mallet Artemis swings at his skull when she's upset, however.

Together, they could also partake in various other tasks, such as a mission to break a boulder to reveal an energon crystal hidden within before sundown, using a block in a mission to defend themselves against various incoming projectiles, and missions to run across a pit-riddled field, sometimes involving hideously large bacteria that had to be fended off.

When they defeated their last opponent, [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]], Artemis, blissfully unaware of the crystal's power, used it as a decoration for her room, finding it pretty. {{storylink|Duel Fight Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Warriors' Strongest Decisive Battle}}

[[Image:MoonBWII1.jpg|right|300px|thumb|"You crack me up, little buddy!" "Whatever."]]

While a transforming bunny rabbit, '''Moon''' (ムーン ''Mūn'') is not of [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertronian]] origin, but is a relic from the past of [[Gaea]] (future [[Earth]]). He is stationed on the moon orbiting the planet along with his partner, [[Artemis]]. Together, they watch the battle unfold between the [[Maximal|Maximals]] and the [[Predacon (BW)|Predacons]], gathering data in secret. He also ends every sentence with the word "moon".

Moon's special ability is the power to become invisible. He's also remarkably good at saying things that upset Artemis. He's ''not'' so good at avoiding the giant red mallet Artemis swings at his skull when she's upset, however.

When the battle between the forces of [[Lio Convoy]] and Galvatron grew to be too dire for Moon to stand any longer, the robot followed his moral compass and disobeyed his orders, taking an active role in events.

When a super-powerful [[Energon crystal]] is discovered on [[Earth]], Moon assisted his friend Artemis in order to gain possession of said crystal.

Together, they could also partake in various other tasks, such as a mission to break a boulder to reveal an energon crystal hidden within before sundown, using a block in a mission to defend themselves against various incoming projectiles, and missions to run across a pit-riddled field, sometimes involving hideously large bacteria that had to be fended off.

When they defeated their last opponent, [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]], Artemis, blissfully unaware of the crystal's power, used it as a decoration for her room, finding it pretty. {{storylink|Duel Fight Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Warriors' Strongest Decisive Battle}}

After [[Unicron]]'s defeat at the hands of [[Big Convoy]], and the formation of an alliance between the Maximals and Predacons, Artemis and Moon somehow travelled to [[Cybertron (planet)|Cybertron]].

As Big Convoy and [[Magmatron]]'s forces had one last brawl for old times' sake behind them, the Gaea androids participated in a giant cross-faction party under beautiful cherry blossoms. They shared a drink (tea? sake? oil?) with [[Bazooka (BWN)|Bazooka]], [[Crazybolt]] and [[Sharp Edge (BWN)|Sharp Edge]], while [[Apache]] and [[Cohrada]] slept peacefully nearby (possibly drunk). {{storylink|Graduation Ceremony!!}}

===IDW ''Beast Wars'' comics===

Moon was charged by the [[Celestial]]s with observing the events transpiring on the planet Gaea for them. When the battle between the forces of [[Lio Convoy]] and Galvatron grew to be too dire for Moon to stand any longer, the robot followed his moral compass and disobeyed his orders, taking an active role in events. For this, the Celestials "excommunicated" him and he can no longer contact them. {{storylink|Beast Wars Sourcebook|Beast Wars Sourcebook 2}}

===''Duel Fight Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Warriors' Strongest Decisive Battle'' video game===
{{note|Moon is listed as a Predacon in this game, to equalize the combatants in each faction.}}
When a super-powerful [[Energon crystal]] is discovered on [[Earth]], Moon assisted his friend Artemis in order to gain possession of said crystal.

Together, they could also partake in various other tasks, such as a mission to break a boulder to reveal an energon crystal hidden within before sundown, using a block in a mission to defend themselves against various incoming projectiles, and missions to run across a pit-riddled field, sometimes involving hideously large bacteria that had to be fended off.

When they defeated their last opponent, [[Megatron (BW)|Megatron]], Artemis, blissfully unaware of the crystal's power, used it as a decoration for her room, finding it pretty. {{storylink|Duel Fight Transformers Beast Wars: Beast Warriors' Strongest Decisive Battle}}
{{note|Each character possessed an alternate ending, displayed if the game was beaten with said character. Each character has only their own ending listed on their pages, see the other characters' pages for Lio Convoy's fate in those outcomes.}}

* Artemis and Moon are based on a Chinese legend about [[wikipedia:Chang'e (mythology)|a lady]] and a Hindu legend about [[wikipedia:Moon rabbit|a rabbit]] who both live on [[Earth]]'s [[Moon (moon)|Moon]].

* Moon's packaging features a unique [[Robot Point|Beast Points]] symbol that was seemingly used nowhere else.

* A pocket-sized Japanese guide book to ''Beast Wars II'' contains an early concept drawing of Moon. It shows that at one time a bizarre-looking, Russian [[wikipedia:Cheburashka|Cheburashka]]-like creature with huge ears and a pierced tail was considered.

66.203.191.100: /* manga/comic */ new section

:''Since Moon hails from Gaia's past and Gaia is a future version of Earth it seems likely that he was of human construction.''
I don't see anything wrong with this statement. It's a logical, important inferrence based on the evidence presented. What is ''un''true about this statement? It says he is ''likely'' of human construction, because it ''is''. I mean, who else from future Earth will build him? Sentient cockroaches which took over after we all died? That's an even bigger assumption than the human angle. That it's probable, given the evidence presented, that he was built by humans is an important thing to say. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 07:17, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
:The fact that it's a "possibility" leaves a bad taste in my mouth; I'm of the opinion that we should be sticking to what the fiction says and nothing more. Putting up possibilities implies that they have some sort of credence beyond fan assumption, and there's no clear line as to what possibilities are acceptable and what aren't. In this case, one could also claim the possibility of Moon being built by Artemis, and thus would have to put this possibility in the article, too. I'd prefer to just avoid that altogether. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 09:22, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

::: Well the article begins with "Moon is a relic from the past of the planet Gaia." So he's a robot from Earth who's not of Cybertronian origin (also in there). *Very* likely built by humans then. I think the line (and others like it) is fine as long as it mentions that it's "likely" not definate.

:::As for how the line is drawn between "likely" and too-out-there speculation? How about with common sense. I hate it when institutions make things doubly difficult and convoluted by catering to the lowest common denominator. Most of use here are smart people, if something is TOO speculative we'll feel it and take it out. If it's boarderline we'll debate it and come to a concensus. No need to get draconian about any little helpful inference in the fear that it'll lead to fannon leaking in. We've got a better handle on things than that I think. -ZacWilliam (who keeps forgetting to log in). :)
::::"Catering to the lowest common denominator"? You're the one arguing to keep this in, as readers are somehow incapable of coming to that conclusion without it spelled out for them. Present the canon and let them come to their own conclusions without us giving credence to our own opinions. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 11:55, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
:::::I agree. It's "possible" that Moon was built by Transformers on Earth, isn't it? That whole Transformers: The Movie thing? Autobots and humans living side-by-side? And then Unicron blew up, and then Galvatron and Magmatron searched for Angolmois. Isn't it ''more'' likely that Transformers on Earth built Moon than humans? Either way, it's speculation that lends undue credibility to a contested theory. --[[User:Crockalley|Crockalley]] 13:08, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
::::::Well, considering he's "not of Cybertronian origin," I would say definitely no. So what are we down to? --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 14:44, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
:::::::If the assumption is so obvious, then why put it in the article? --[[User:Crockalley|Crockalley]] 14:54, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
::::::::Well, the article at present doesn't say that Gaia is future-Earth. The Trivia item Interrobang removed (seen above) removed a crucial piece of the puzzle. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:03, 26 October 2006 (UTC)
