==Article coverage==
Wouldn't it be better to dedicate only one article for the four issues? The most we're going to get are lists and the occassional screw-up to note. [[User:Interrobang|Interrobang]] 01:35, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
: I agree --[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 02:36, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

==Tables==
Can we ditch them? They take up way, way too much space for the very little info they provide. Especially since Issue #2 has so many characters who are the ''only ones'' whose names start with whatever letter. Why don't we go with a three or four-column normal text layout [[Genesis:_The_Art_of_Transformers#Contributing_Artists|like the one used for the artists on ''Genesis'']]?--[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 03:39, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
:Feel free to do so, although I think we should still separate by issue. --[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 08:45, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

Hang on a minute... is the list just wrong, or... or is... ''Optimus Primal'' not inluded in the most recent issue? - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 19:39, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
: I think the listing's wrong. Someone on Allspark mentioned that Primal had a ''completely'' preposterous and poorly-phrased "motto" that he would ''never'' say with a straight face. Something like "Peace is the absence of conflict bla bla dryness out of character bla snore." --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 20:08, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
::Ah, here it is. "Peace is the absence of conflict and the presence of justice." Pardon me while I vomit a little into my mouth. There. I have just vomited a little into my mouth. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 20:11, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
:::Really, did Ben Yee suddenly forget what series his site was originally based upon? Because that quote sounds like a japanese Autobot leader who takes himself too seriously, not Primal. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 21:25, 5 January 2008 (UTC)
::::That was my bad. Primal's indeed included, I just missed him for whatever dumb reason. It's fixed, now. --[[User:Spectre|Spectre]] 21:38, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

==Double-bullets==
Yeah, that's the only way I can seem to get bullets to show up when there's an image to the left of them. I don't know why this is, but it is. I tried a :* indent, but nothing doing. Wonder if anyone's brought this to the wikia folks' attention. Probably. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 00:34, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
:Still, with the spaces between them, it leaves the bullets all over the place. Do we wnat that either? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 00:36, 8 January 2008 (UTC)
:: I just moved the image to the right and made them single bullets, --[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 21:34, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

Tsk... McFeely here, at work, having just removed the newest issue of the Sourcebook from its box. They've included Transmutate, but coloured Transmetal Taratulas in his Fox Kids zombie colours instead of the proper ones, Silverbolt II has an eagle head ''for a head'' (Skywarp gets it right, even though he's drawn by Milkovich), Sonar is still a "she," and there's no index, so no mention of Artemis.
:Did they actually call Magnaboss Silverbolt "Silverbolt II"? Is Scourge included? [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 14:53, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
::Of course they didn't mention Artemis :( She's too silly for serious business, manly Beast Wars now. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 14:54, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

== collection? ==

Is this thign slated to be collected? I though IDW collected ''everything.'' -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 10:23, 7 June 2008 (UTC)

==Cover Gallery?==
Shouldn't we have one? --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 21:03, 5 August 2009 (EDT)

==Profile updates==
I'm probably going to be picking up the BW omnibus, and using the Sourcebook section to update the character profiles for a number of characters. Can I get a list of characters whose profiles in the sourcebook are too contradictory with other established fiction to successfully meld into the main profile. [[User:Eire]] 18.16 Aug 7 09 (UTC)
:Avoid the profiles for any of the Japanese-exclusive characters (Beast Wars II and Beast Wars Neo). They all had their personalities completely overhauled and in most cases don't even remotely resemble their original counterparts. Aside from that, the only Western Beast Wars character I recall the Sourcebook getting wrong was Ramulus. The errors section of this article can give you a pretty good idea of which characters Yee "overhauled", hence which ones to avoid.
::There's also [[Injector]] and [[Prowl II]], who we already went over. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 20:04, 7 August 2009 (EDT)
==Possible Flaws in the article==
It says Bigmos got a two page and Blackarchnia only got one. I see the opposite in the Omnibus. Was it something that was later fixed or is this a flaw in the article? Also..I may've overlooked it, but one thing I noted that I don't see mentioned in the article: Megatron has an Alligator picture listed as his Transmetal 2 form (even thought in the bio it mentions the origional Dragon mode motif) and no pic is shown of his first one. I'd add it myself, but I'm not sure which part to do so.--[[User:Chipmonk328|Chipmonk328]]

Kudos on the disambiguation gag. :D --[[User:DrSpengler|DrSpengler]] 00:46, 12 September 2006 (UTC)

it says he's a Canadian artists, wouldn't the slang abbreviation "Can artist" be more effective? btw that quote was found by me I am great--[[User:Zodberg|Zodberg]] 02:37, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

I missed that business. What's the full story with Alex Milne? --[[User:Ratbat|Ratbat]] 02:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

:[http://www.comicbookresources.com/columns/index.cgi?column=litg&article=2581] --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:16, 9 January 2007 (UTC)
::Hey, shouldn't we have this LITG article "External links"ed from both Pat & Alex's pages? -- M Sipher

At TFcon 2007, Alex vented his heavy distaste for Pat Lee, even so much so that if they ever met again..... he then trailed off at that point (it was during the artist panel), not a happy camper thanks to the "SUPASTAR!" [[User:ProtomanXRED|ProtomanXRED]]
==Cartoon before toys?==

Can anyone confirm the "He believes that the Transformers cartoon was so amazing that it was only a matter of time before the toys were made" line? It was added by an anonymous user, so I'm tempted to delete it, but I ''want'' it to be true. So... reference? - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 20:01, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
:I... want to say it was a pre-DW-gets-the-license interview. We should most ''definitely'' source it on this page once we track it down. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 20:36, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
::There's discussion of it on ATT from March 2001, but not an actual link to the interview. Definitely makes reference to the "cartoons first, matter-of-time" quote. http://groups.google.com/group/alt.toys.transformers/search?group=alt.toys.transformers&q=Pat+Lee+matter+of+time+toys --[[User:Thylacine 2000|Thylacine 2000]] 20:41, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
:::Which really shows the reason why Dreamwave continuity was as animation-centric as it was.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 20:45, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

== "serfdom" ==

I've seen on a few pages when Pat Lee is mentionned the term "serfdom" is inserted... what does it mean, exactly? --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 19:53, 4 October 2007 (UTC)
:In this context, his notion that people should keep working for him merely on the ''promise'' that someday he'll pay them. Maybe.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 19:55, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

== Kudos ==

1000% more informative now, Nevermore. Damned good job.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 20:11, 6 October 2007 (UTC)
:Hell, I'd nominate this for a featured article now. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 20:56, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

==Pictures==
I think we need more pictures in this article, if only to break up the text abit. How about funny photos of Lee or particularly shoddy Transformers art (assuming he drew it)? --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 14:11, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
:Hmm, maybe a few of Transformers with the gigantic feet? --[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 14:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
::I added in the extremely short-bus robot that was his design for the [[Fallen]] before Wildman cleaned it up.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 16:09, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
:I think the number of images is okay right now... I wouldn't want to see more than 2-3 put in at this point. It would start getting cluttered. --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 22:10, 12 November 2007 (UTC)

==Andy Wildman==
What's the source for the altering of his art? We've, like, seen his pencils. They don't look any different. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 16:49, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
: I think he meant that Wildman made the Fallen look better than Lee's original concept. I can agree with that statement. --[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 17:14, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
::Yes, but Walky is instead asking about the allegation that the inkers changed Wildman's art in The Dark Ages.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 17:16, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
::: would this be an appropriate reference? [http://www.tfw2005.com/boards/archive/index.php/t-108053.html] --[[User:MistaTee|MistaTee]] 17:26, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
:::: I don't see anything that makes a good case. There's some questions asked that state the alteration as a given, and when Matt Moylan is pressed about it, he doesn't recall such a thing. I think this is just a run-away rumor based on Wildman choosing to draw his TF hands like Figueroa's. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 17:46, 12 November 2007 (UTC)
::::: Had to remove the reference again. The interview linked said that Andrew Wildman was surprised at how "dark" the "finishing" was, but he's just talking about the coloring work. The scans of his pencils are hard to find these days, so it's not as easy to support my statements from two years ago, but his pencils were unaltered. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 10:01, 25 April 2009 (EDT)
::::: I should add that the source of this rumor came from people startled at how Wildman's art looked, not realizing his art just looks like that when it's not inked by Baskerville. All his subsequent Transformers pencilwork looks basically just like his Dark Ages work. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 10:04, 25 April 2009 (EDT)

==Quotable==
Okay, I don't know if it was a mistake or a joke, but the "they much oftener succeed thrugh failures" quote isn't actually Pat Lee's originally. A google search turned up several attributions to Samuel Smiles. --[[User:Nemesis Primal|Nemesis Primal]] 22:21, 16 January 2008 (UTC)

==Recent activities section?==
In light of recent pictures of Lee drawing on somebody's apartment wall, should we do some kind of 'Pat Lee's recent activities' section? --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 04:53, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
:I'd say not. It's fan-art. Why do we need to mention it? --[[User:Sntint|Sntint]] 05:28, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
::Because it's funny? Besides, in presenting the case against Pat Lee, we make do mention of things that happened after he was done with Tranformers. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 05:39, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

==Wikipedia trolling==
We have two sections mentioning his wikipedia trolling (or somebody doing it for him. Which one should we keep? --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 11:19, 8 April 2008 (UTC)

== New sources ==

I just thought it might be interesting to rework this article, considering the number of new sources that have popped up in regards to the [http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Pat_Lee&diff=prev&oldid=215782387 "NPOV"] [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Pat_Lee#Cleaned_up B.S.] going on over at Wikipedia. We've got sources from Don, Guido, Milne, Patyk, Raiz... I think we should put em to good use on Pat's article and on Dreamwave's as well. --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 19:32, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
:I'd certainly support this. We are an appropriate venue, and the tone of the article already shows we're not pulling any punches.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 19:53, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
::As the person who dug up those sources for the Wikipedia article, now seeing them all dismissed as "unreliable", I'm totally in favor of this notion. I'm willing to help out in any way I can.--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 00:25, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
:::Always funny that Wikipedia can wax loquacious on, say, ''Naruto'' but anything even remotely controversial gets neutered down to the stub level.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|Talk]] 00:29, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
::::90% of the articles on Wikipedia falls into one of two categories: a) Unmoderated ones that are horribly long and contain laods of false bullshit, and b) overmoderated ones that trim down anything to a stub-class article because some all-high-and-mighty admin is on a "THE RRRRULES!" trip.--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 00:34, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
:::::So, updated. As the author of the (now deleted) section at Wikipedia, I gave myself permission to directly copy some of its content into this article. I also added a lot of other shit. Does anyone still have a link to the Adny Wildman pencils for War Within vol. 2?--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 11:18, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

== Returning to Canada ==

From Pat's Alivenotdead blog:
{{quote|I will be heading back to Toronto middle of next month to hang out with family }}
Which authorities should be notified? And any idea how to notify them? --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 11:51, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

:Given its ''Canada'', there are only the Mounties. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 15:23, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
:Notify of ''what''? That a citizen of their country is returning from Hong Kong?--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 17:44, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
::Something about creditors who're owed money, I think.... -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 18:02, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
:::Have those creators taken legal action against Pat Lee? Is there currently an arrest warrant on his name?--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 18:06, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
::::No idea. This is entirely someone-said-that-someone-said, far as I know. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 18:17, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

== possible source on not paying ==

I seem to recall someone from IDW mentioning that they cannot reprint some Dreamwave issues because the creators were not paid. Does anyone remember something like that, and if so, where from? --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 19:59, 30 May 2008 (UTC)
:Of course that'd still be entirely unsuitable for Wikipedia unless a newspaper were to report that IDW did indeed say this at a convention or a messgae board, and even then out would be the evil conglomerative Dreamwave (with Roger Lee sharing the blame) responsible, not Pat himself.--[[User:Nevermore|Nevermore]] 23:25, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

== "Pat Lee once set a hill on fire"? ==

I followed the link, but I still don't get it. Was something removed? [[User:GrantB|GrantB]] 17:19, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
:Evidently. I've never been able to hang around long enough at his old site to try and fix the link, though. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 17:32, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

:I'm beginning to think he's left it unattached on purpose to ensure he remembers "for those who can't". This may require rewording the mention of it in the notes for [[Nanosec (episode)|Nanosec]]. In fact, I think I will.--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 01:51, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

==Soundwave's Decepticon insignia==
Yes, I know he's pretty much got one on the show because his toy does, and yes, Megatron created and contacted him, but it's (I think) worth noting that none of the Autobots notice he's a Decepticon. A similar phenomenon exists with the Dinobots (who have Autobrands, while not yet having joined the team). Do we count it as an animation error, or a stylistic device invisible to the characters? (Other options include "Bulkhead's blind and a complete moron" and "I'm reading too much into this.") [[User:76dot195dot91dot222|76dot195dot91dot222]] 22:17, 11 March 2008 (UTC)

==Funny Caption Idea==
Didn't want to rain on anyones parade so to speak but, I had an idea for an alternate pic quote I feel would be quite funny for the Trash bot taking Bumblee out pic..(I don't find the current one funny ironicly) the idea is "In Detroit, the trash takes out YOU." a pun off of "Here in Soviet Russia, the joke laughs at YOU."

==Things to say to you==
[[Image:Ttoc.GIF|right|thumb|We approve this message.]]

Just some thing I've been wanting to say to David...

First off, you're a monumental asshole. You have an ego the size of a small planet and it's irritating watching you act like an important SOB when you're basically just a nobody.

Second, your webcomics aren't funny. They're boring tripe that makes Penny Arcade look good(and believe me, Penny Arcade is garbage). Cyanide and Happiness is a funny webcomic, yours is not. Your "jokes" are painful, about like watching Michael Richards yell the n-word as a routine. You don't draw a comic, you draw an opinionated blog. I'm not sure which name suits your crap better, "ShitPacked" or "ShortDicked".

Your liberalism and your love of Indiana get on my nerves. You jab at Mallard Filmore? Yeah, one shitty comic making fun of another shitty comic. Or are you just pissed that his gets in newspapers while you're JUST a webcomic? As to Indiana, I live here, and if it were up to me, the state would be walled off and none of the freaks living there allowed to interact with the rest of the planet. The state is about 3 decades behind the times. But something tells me even you know this otherwise you'd still live here. I sure as hell do not live here by choice and as soon as I can, I'm moving far away from this joke of a state.

And your brand loyalty is typical fandom crap. You have Aaron Archer's rod so far down your throat it's unreal. And Aryan fucktard Michael Bay's rod has apparently joined it. I'd say soemthing abotu Don Murphy but he was born without one. Actually, I can say something- he's Kevin "unfunny asshole" Smith with more body fat. Hasbro didn't give the film to a competent director, just a cheap one. And neither Speilberg or ILM have done anything useful in years. Give WETA, or even Tom Savini a chance and we wouldn't be getting Bionicle bots. You're afraid to not like a Hasbro product. No wonder they don't have to go out of the way to please the "fans"- you'll accept it no matter what. But hey, you personally have been sucking off incompetent British bonehead Simon Furman and his shitty stories for years. There are no gods in Transformers. Unicron was built by a monkey, little man. Furman is dog shit.

And go figure this TF wiki is a joke full of misinformation, insults or outright lies- you're a mod here. You're never right. You're more of an incorrect pompous jerkoff than Defunct is. Right, ban me from editing, as if it would somehow matter, any info you don't agree with is pulled. You only have friends because people feel sorry for you. Me, I have no need. People are a commodity to be used and their wants only get in the way of what I'm out for. Use them and drop them.

Who am I? Go look who added a note about you on Encyclopedia Dramatica's Allspark page if you're not too lazy. As well as past AS, Kalidor, FIRRIB and Hooks entries(the hooks entry especially true). Oh, and just info on white people in general and that idiotic Nintendo Wii. I'm not making it that easy for you.

Wow, an Encyclopedia Dramatica troll. No need to be so harsh on Walky. I, too, like the Baybots, and, I happen to like Bionicle. Also, his Webcomic is one of my favorites.

==BANNED==

What the hell did I do to warrant a ban, exactly? As far as I'm aware, I don't even think I broke any rules, and if I did, an official warning would be appropriate. I received no such warning. I was not here for trolling and you know that - you use that bullshit excuse to get people to ignore arguments you can't handle. But you, personally, who made this decision, know I'm not a troll.

This is fucking low. I had little enough respect for you down to your ranting against the fanbase, Willis, but this is a whole new level of buggery. If you're going to use your comic to rant against and discredit people you don't like, the least you can do is suck it up when people rant at you back, and not act like a control-freak child.

I really don't think you're aware of your own actions anymore.
*Do the words [[Wikipedia:WP:NPA|no personal attacks]] mean anything to you? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 00:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:: Do the words "warning before ban" mean anything to you? Rulemongering doesn't justify a decision anyway, since Walky is one of the people making the rules. There were plenty of personal attacks leveled at me, but I did not report them officially.

::I really find it hard to believe that you think it's completely on a rational level of discourse to claim that the comic strip I draw is about child pornography. If I'm not mistaken about your identity, you've been banned from almost every single Transformers web board you've had an acquaintance with, and I'm only doing this place a favor by getting rid of you. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:22, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::: That's not an excuse. I will openly admit I HAVE been banned from several forums, but only because I repeatedly opposed the staff on each and every one of them; and with good cause, they all have roughly the same problem. People bully others either into liking the movie or to agree with the kind of views you promote - and since nobody can directly attack or discredit anyone, these people(and you are) are left to their methods.
::: For your current decision to be validated, the admins of those boards, boards which are influenced in turn by your anti-fan attitude, would have to be near 100% correct in their decisions, and those decisions would have to occur within a context that would map exactly onto here. Any rational moderator does not base their decisions so much off performance on other boards, especially when it's not even a messageboard they're operating. Two different media. I have openly said I despise all active Transformers boards for their level of authoritarianism, yet level of tolerance towards the pushing of certain viewpoints.

::: Not to mention that you're still operating under the fallacy of Appeal to Majority - that alone means I shouldn't really even have to counter you.

::: And don't even use the "CHILD PORNOGRAPHY" thing as an excuse. Again, any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban, I personally reversed that edit even though it was obviously intended to be a joke as anyone reading this knows what pile'o'bile already is. You have no justification for what you did, but your ego is too big to realise you can actually do wrong with your power. You'll never admit it, but I wouldn't be surprised if some part of you is pissed that I defeated some of your ramblings, whether they were directly written by you or encouraged by you, it's still the kind of guff you normally blew, and I managed to defeat it. You, and the mods of the big sites will always have your ban buttons - but you will NEVER be able to justify your actions to me. That's how I know that I'm in the right, at least in situations like this - solidly backed justification is almost always absent.
:::: Personal attacks + deleting comments in response to you = banno --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
:::: P.S. Sign your posts. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 00:36, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

::::: I have never intentionally deleted comments in response to me. I just moved one recently as it was in the middle of a paragraph of text. Not to mention that happened after you banned my original IP. Personal attacks alone are not grounds enough for a ban, especially when you're doing an awful, awful lot to be mercilessly torn into.
Need I point out that once again, you are unable to defend yourself properly? When does the "You're insane?" come? Ganging up of all your little friends since a majority always means you're right?
Do you even realise what a fascist shithead you sound like? Just because you're an admin of a place doesn't give you a free pass to be a dick with it. There's a difference between what you can do and what you should do that you don't seem to have learned yet. [[User:67.159.44.88|67.159.44.88]]

Actually - come to think of it, you make fun of the idea that anyone running a site can be Nazi, yet you still mention you got banned from many forums. Does that perhaps mean that you genuinely got banned for being an asshole and not opposing the staff/local clique like I did?

:''any rational moderator would warn several times before a ban''
:Not true, some things are auto-ban. I don't think you ''did'' any of them, but I'm just saying.
:Dude- you got an expedited ban because you showed no signs of contrition, argued every point, used personal insults, refused to sign your posts even when '''repeatedly asked to''' (I had to go back into history and dig out which incoherent chunks of text where yours, because the posts weren't hierarchied properly so the debate was really hard to follow. This is why signin posts is important dumbfuck.)
:And ultimately you got banned because you were making a major nuisance of yourself in ''without'' any correlating '''contribution''' to justify keeping you around. You're a negative. You edited 3 articles- Fandom, Shortpacking and Ruined Forever- and ''all' of those edits got reverted because they either flames or crappy jokes that make the articles ''worse''. Even if I were to (generously) believe you didn't intend to start a fight, you picked the 3 flamebaitiest articles you could find and masturbated across them. ''Allah forfend'' you should write an ''episode summary'' or something.

== Tip ==

If persistent trolls (especially those with offensive usernames) repeatedly re-create their user talk pages, the best method to deal with it would be to include the page on [[Project:Title blacklist]] and delete the vandalism user talk page. This would be better than protecting the actual page since the the vandalism page would technically not exist, won't come up in searches, and won't be indexed on search engines. In addition, the removal of such pages might discourage the trolls since they may see those pages as their accomplishments, which would encourage them to continue their disruption. [[User:GHe|GHe]] ([[User talk:GHe|Talk]]) 00:23, 21 December 2007 (UTC)

== Bumper as a Brazilian character. ==

Hope i'm posting this on the right place...

I did put a cap under Animated Bumper image that said "In Brazil, people know who i am."

I did not mean to say that he's brazilian, but that his toy was among the first wave of the original G1 Transformers released here during the 80's and because of that, lots of fans in Brazil remember him almost as much as Cliffjumper or Bumblebee.

Just wanted to make this clear. I used the caption under the image again, but if you think it shouldn't be used anyway, be my guest and delete it. --[[User:Akumateukuma|Akumateukuma]] 23:57, 4 June 2009 (UTC)

==ROTF little one - Hightower or Scrapper==

I was going by the alt modes we see on deck. Scrapper's a front loader type thing, whereas Hightower is a crane, which looks similar to the one we see in the film...although that little one image does have that double pronged end on his hand. I also though Scrapper was the one chasing Sam and Mikeala, used a wrecking ball. Anyway, if it is decided it's Scrapper, you'll need to transfer/rewrite the bit for Hightower's page I did. [[User:Eire|Eire]] 22.55 27th June 2009
:It isn't Hightower. Hightower is a truss crane and is quite large. The unnamed dead guy was a smaller excavator-type vehicle. In fact, he's quite similar to the incorrect vehicle mode Demolishor was given in the ROTF adaptation comic. Scrapper was the guy with the mace-fist that chased after Sam & Mikeala. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 02:31, 28 June 2009 (EDT)

== Jolt ==

The Blu-Ray manages to show a pretty clear image of Jolt's robot mode just before he attaches his electro-whips. Should we use it as his main pic? [http://images.dwteam.org/tf/snapshot20091023081257.jpg Yeah, he's standing in front of Jetfire, but one can make him out pretty darn easily.] And 1080p = clear big ass pic. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 19:55, 24 October 2009 (EDT)
: On one hand, yeah, that's a nice clear picture of him, and probably the only one we get in the movie of his whole body unblurred. On the other, the current main image is, uh, more accurate? Sort of? I mean, it's not just hilarious, but it's generally true. Jolt is always just over somebody's shoulder. I enjoy that all of Jolt's images are out of focus or from under somebody's shoulder. I am not saying no. I'm saying why I like the current setup, but not that it can't change. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 20:41, 24 October 2009 (EDT)
::Funny part of that "best image we have of him" is if I didn't know what I was looking for I doubt I'd even notice his tangle of metal was meant to be something seperate from Jetfire's. I'm not really a hater of the movie look, but in situations like this it's like a ink-blot test trying to seperate what's him from what's jetfire. Atleast in the blury pics I can easily see what it is I'm not seeing clearly.--[[Special:Contributions/76.28.72.27|76.28.72.27]] 20:46, 24 October 2009 (EDT)
:::Well, one thing you've imparted upon me over the years, Walky, is that sometimes it is best to effectively show the character's design rather than to maintain a joke or to convey characterisation, if a better image of the character exists (which is probably why we recently had the discussion over changing [[Brawl (Movie)|Brawl]] and [[Grimlock (G1)|Grimlock's]] main images). And yeah, I agree with you that Jolt is defined as "dude who turns up out of nowhere and cannot be seen clearly", but I think it's also pretty important to give our readers at least one good, clear image of him, because, fuck, even with this we're still sketchy on what he's supposed to look like.--[[User:FFN|FFN]] 03:26, 25 October 2009 (EDT)
::::I think the image we have now as the mainpic is still clearer than the Blu-Ray shot..even if it is blurry because Jolt's in the background, you can see his design much better because he's not standing in front of anything. -[[User:Mazenoise|Mazenoise]] 09:45, 25 October 2009 (EDT)

::Why? What exactly was so wrong about the British spelling that it needed to be changed? --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 06:05, 21 November 2009 (EST)
:::If you will read our Style Guide, you will note that there is a clause that states that we will use the form of English that the article has the strongest ties to. Shattered Glass stories are written by American dudes in an American form of English. So I changed it. Similarly, when I upload images of comic panels from Marvel UK books, I put the "u" in "colouring." I am merely being consistent. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 11:20, 21 November 2009 (EST)

==Suggestion for a new project==
Walky

I was going over a lot of popular pages and I noticed that we're missing quotes for numerous well known characters from multiple continuities. I thought we might set up a wiki project where we make a co-ordinated effort to add some. I could have a go myself, but for some it requires familiarity with media that I haven't seen. What do you think?

Ps If I crossed the line getting involved in that mignash thing, I'd like to apologise. I can see how I was probably sticking my nose in where its not wanted.

Best wishes

Michael[[User:Eire]] 20.02 Nov 24 09 (UTC)
: I'm of the mind that we shouldn't push quotes on sections or characters unless they're called for in some way, or if they actually add to the article.

==On an unrelated note: Thank you.==
I know this is an odd place to say it, but I figured if I only said it once, it wouldn't be a bother so here goes: Thank You. Shortpacked is hilarious, and when not laughing, I'm agreeing with alot of the statements the main character makes. (and feeling like I was the only one who noticed some of them, like the one about General Discussions.) I also noticed your a Hot Shot fan, which is also awesome. I also noticed its due to the efforts of you and other people here that the move was made from Wikia to Tfwiki, which was a good idea so I also want to say a long overdue thank you for doing that as well, and finally: thanks for doing what you can for this site, because without this site, I'd be out of the loops on Club Exclusive things, and other Misc. Transformers related content. I go here frequently for information (or lolz) and I'm quite sure not only me but many others are grateful to you and all others who help contribute to this place.--[[User:Chipmonk328|Chipmonk328]]
