&lt;hr /&gt;
&lt;div&gt;2/21/07: Ok, let&#039;s discuss this instead of getting into an endless reversion war. Why can&#039;t the silly all s&#039;s to z&#039;s change be allowed? How is it any worse than say the constant rhyming on Wheelie&#039;s page?&lt;br /&gt;
:: Because it makes the article a pain in the ass to read? At least that seems to be the reason it got edited last time--[[User:UndeadScottsman|UndeadScottsman]] 03:55, 22 February 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
Is this a little more acceptable?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Why is Waspy in the &amp;quot;Toys &#039;R&#039; Us Exclusives&amp;quot; category?  As far as I know, unless you count the TRU-Japan-Exclusive version of Thrust, all of Waspinator&#039;s toys thus far have been general releases, save for the upcoming Botcon version.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
You know, I missed the typo in the Botcon comic &amp;quot;Excecute jump now&amp;quot; panel there. Thanks alot. Now I&#039;ll be saying &#039;excecute&#039; all day. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 13:29, 1 February 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The very first round of Fox Kids BW toys were TRU-only, which included Waspinator. -- M Sipher&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
::: If memory serves I got my Fox Kid&#039;s Rhinox at Target.  Even if memory &#039;&#039;doesn&#039;t&#039;&#039; serve, Waspy probably should be taken out of this category until some proof is dug up.   I won&#039;t take him out myself, but I think someone should consider it. --[[User:Nemesis Primal|Nemesis Primal]] 00:38, 6 May 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Stinger ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If I&#039;m not mistaken, stinger = sharpened ovipositor.. and ovipositor = egg-laying tube.. and therefore ovipositor = vagina.. which means Wazzpinator is a girl-altmoder like Tigatron!&amp;lt;small&amp;gt;—The preceding unsigned comment was added by [[User:75.72.21.221|75.72.21.221]] ([[User talk:75.72.21.221|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/75.72.21.221|contribs]]){{#if:{{{2|}}}|&amp;amp;#32;{{{2}}}|}}.&amp;lt;/small&amp;gt;&amp;lt;!-- Template:Unsigned --&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
:Male wasps/hornets still have stings.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]] 03:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Actually, male wasps do not have stings because stings are modified ovipositors, which only females have. The anonymous poster is correct in that Waspinator&#039;s beast form is female. Some may find this interesting, but it should really come as no surprise. About half of the beast warriors probably have female beast modes, seeing as females usually make up approximately half of most species&#039; populations. So far, I can positively sex the beast forms of Tigatron (female), Waspinator (female), Inferno (female), Blackarachnia (female), and Cheetor (male). I don&#039;t know about the rest though. It doesn&#039;t really matter, but it&#039;s still somewhat interesting.--[[User:General Cicadacon|General Cicadacon]] 22:44, 8 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Since none of the (mammalian) beast forms have external genitals I assumed they were all female. Aside from Stampy&#039;s &amp;quot;Kick him in the unmentionables!&amp;quot; quote in &#039;&#039;The Ascending&#039;&#039; I&#039;ve never seen any evidence to the contrary...[[User:Emvee|Emvee]] 14:35, 12 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Immortality? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I think it might be crazy and I just came up with it like 2 seconds ago but I think that Waspinator was the one with an immortal spark seriously maybe when Starscream possessed him it gave him a residual effect to survive even the worse of being slag. or maybe he is just lucky/unlucky.&lt;br /&gt;
[[User:Bobtherandomguy|Bobtherandomguy]] 11:32, 19 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:...what? --[[User:Sntint|Sntint]] 20:49, 19 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
::I think he&#039;s saying that Waspinator&#039;s apparent immortality may be an after effect of being possessed by Starscream. [[User:24.207.234.189|24.207.234.189]] 00:17, 27 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::No,he&#039;s saying starscream became immortal AFTER posessing the undefeatable waspinator. Which makes no sense whatsoever because if his spark was there he was already immortal. I don&#039;t think this guy knows G1 exists.[[User:Rhinox555|Decepticon Rhinox]] 15:25, 8 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Though Waspinator getting blown to scrap rather predates that episode.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;Talk&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;]] 00:29, 27 December 2007 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::Just a theory, but maybe Waspinator had a &amp;quot;differentiated&amp;quot; spark, just like [[Frenzy (Movie)|a certain little skittering spaz]].  If &#039;&#039;he&#039;&#039; can survive being decapitated multiple times, what&#039;s to say Waspy wasn&#039;t built to the same specs, as it were?  --[[User:Nightshade83|Nightshade83]] 02:27, 7 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Character-Voice Version? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, is it consensus that the character-voice intro paragraphs are better than more normal ones?  I&#039;d prefer the non-voice version.  [[User:JW|JW]] 03:24, 8 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:In some cases, yes.  In this case, definitely.  --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 03:30, 8 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::This one really is kinda difficult to read.  At very least it needs to be edited down. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 00:45, 10 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I think I would prefer going back to the non-character voice version. Maybe if the Tenth Anniversary bio hadn&#039;t already done it, I&#039;d like seeing it here better. --[[User:KilMichaelMcC|KilMichaelMcC]] 01:00, 10 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

Wazzpinator &#039;&#039;like&#039;&#039; hizz page zzerved with extra Z. [[User:Wazzpinator|Wazzpinator]] 18:23, 30 January 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Looking zz at this as it currently stands?  zzz The intro zzzz looks zzz AWFUL. I mean, it is seriously zzzz almost zzzz impossible zzzzzz to read.  I don&#039;t think zzzz the character zzz voice adds zzzz &#039;&#039;anything&#039;&#039; zzzz to the page, and makes zzz it very ugly and hard zzzz to follow.  I vote for purging it entirely. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz  -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 22:08, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:I agree with removing the &amp;quot;z&amp;quot;s, but lets keep it in his character voice. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 02:12, 7 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Would it be acceptable to use the Zs in the opening character overview?  I kind of liked them there and thought it was fittingly amusing.  I agree that using it throughout the entire article is major overkill, though.  [[User:Combobreaker|Combobreaker]] 01:25, 14 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::It never &#039;&#039;was&#039;&#039; in his character voice.  Someone just did a search-and-replace on the letter &amp;quot;S&amp;quot;, and made a couple of minor grammar edits -- but it was never re-written to sound like something Waspinator would actually say.  If it&#039;s going to be a character voice intro, it needs to be done &#039;&#039;right&#039;&#039;, not just a crude, hard-to-read port of what&#039;s already written.  That also means it has to be &#039;&#039;better&#039;&#039; than what&#039;s up there now, which if I may say so is pretty good. The character POV&#039;s a cute idea, but the execution thus far has left much to be desired. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 22:58, 13 February 2008 (EST)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I agree with you guys mostly, but his &#039;&#039;quote&#039;&#039; should probably have the z&#039;s. After all, angry archer is in ye olde english and wheelie is IN RHYME.[[User:American Girl|American Girl]] 19:24, 28 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dunno if it helpszz, but when doing BW fancomicszzz I found that an &amp;quot;s&amp;quot; followed by two or three &amp;quot;z&amp;quot;s uszzually got the messzzzage acrosszz&lt;br /&gt;
without being too difficult to read, and conveyed Waszzpinator&#039;szzz voice perfectly. [[User:Emvee|Emvee]] 14:34, 12 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Although szzoft &#039;c&#039;szz are difficult to reproduce, szzee &amp;quot;voice&amp;quot; above, and indeed &amp;quot;reproduce&amp;quot; in thiszz szzzentence. And in &amp;quot;szzzentence&amp;quot;. Gah. [[User:Emvee|Emvee]] 14:39, 12 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== Waspy Transmetal needs own page? ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to the final BW profile book TM Waspy is a seperate alternate reality version that is perminantly possesed by the spark of Starscream (the Starscream of our universe) and engaged in a constant struggle between the Screamer and Waspy personalities in his Transmetal form. Sooo our policy is that alt. reality varients get seperate pages right? We need a [[Waspinator (Transmetal)]] page now? --[[User:ZacWilliam|ZacWilliam]] 21:37, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Man, as if Prowl II wasn&#039;t enough... [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 21:55, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Just take something that will counter the headache &#039;&#039;before&#039;&#039; you read it. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 22:00, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:&amp;quot;Alternate reality variants&amp;quot;??  Y&#039;mean like... IDW Scorponok vs G1 comics Scorponok?   Seems to me he&#039;d just get a separate fiction section. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 22:04, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::[[Tankor (Decepticon)]] vs [[Tankor (BM)]]. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 22:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::Yeah that, and many others ([[Galvatron II]] anyone) was the sort of thing I was envisioning. It raises an interesting question. Where is that line? Between seperate continuities of the same character (same page) vs. alternate reality versions (seperate pages).--[[User:ZacWilliam|ZacWilliam]] 22:26, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::And again, that&#039;s a decision I contest for this very reason. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 22:43, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::But IDW transmetal Waspy is still from the G1 continuity family. I&#039;d say this is more Marvel Prime vs. G1 Cartoon Prime than Marvel Prime vs. RID cartoon Prime. Plus, Waspinator appeared in Transmetal form in a video game. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 22:39, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::But again, how is this different from Galvy II mentioned above, or the Tankor, or many of the Universe and other Alt. Relaity varients that already have their own page? I don&#039;t really care which way we do it, honestly, but I DO think we should be consistant. We need to pick some clear rules for this: when a character is Alt. enough to have his own page and when he is just a varient on the main page.  --[[User:ZacWilliam|ZacWilliam]] 22:49, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::I think we need to merge the Tankors and Obsidians together, and treat these alternate universe versions of the same character like we do all the other alternate universe versions (cartoon vs comic) of the same character. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 23:10, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::::I&#039;d kinda agree.  In particular, I&#039;ve always thought it was really strange to have a separate page under this made-up &amp;quot;Galvatron II&amp;quot; title. -- [[User:Repowers|Repowers]] 23:43, 6 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::Galvatron II isn&#039;t &amp;quot;made-up,&amp;quot; it&#039;s the name of the eHobby toy. Furman had previously used it in Alignment, which itself doesn&#039;t count, but that&#039;s where eHobby got it from. Anyway, Sourcebook TM Waspinator does not seem to be a distinct character warranting a page of his own, just sections on Waspy and Starscream&#039;s pages. --[[User:KilMichaelMcC|KilMichaelMcC]] 01:38, 7 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::::::Yeah, Galvatron II gets his own toy, and is running around in a universe where there&#039;s already another Galvatron and a Megatron.  He gets his own page partly to avoid tremendous confusion and because he&#039;s got his own name.  Sorta.  --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:10, 7 February 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

With him having appeared in the cartoon now,in Arabia,does animated waspinator finally deserve a page?[[User:Rhinox555|Decepticon Rhinox]] 10:10, 8 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:Considering that we aren&#039;t even sure if his name is &amp;quot;Wasp&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Waspinator&amp;quot;, I&#039;d say no. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 10:28, 8 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Ok,well at least we know there is A waspinator in TFA. Just have to wait for his name. By the way,are you also hoping he will keep his cybertronian alt mode?[[User:Rhinox555|Decepticon Rhinox]] 15:23, 8 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::I don&#039;t care about his alternate mode, nor do I think my liking of it needs to be discussed here. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 15:45, 8 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
I&#039;m going to give an example here. Take a typical weekend in which a new episode of TFA airs in Canada or the US. We spend the entire weekend (and sometimes much of the week) double-checking the episode summary, the character fiction sections, and making sure the article holds up and doesn&#039;t contain too much cruft. It&#039;s a community effort, and often a lot of stuff has to be corrected or just plain cut because the people watching the episode are &#039;&#039;fallible&#039;&#039;. All of us. I am not excluded from this.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Now imagine that same episode article and character information is being added for a leaked episode broadcast in Dubai. Maybe five people in the Transformers community have seen it. Maybe only one of those is a user on this Wiki. Maybe he&#039;s not even a user on this wiki and the users here are just using his fan summary he posted on one of the news sites. Can the users on this wiki correct him if he&#039;s got a misconception about what he&#039;s seen? What if he assumes that the tank guy with the turret on his head is Omega Supreme and makes an Omega Supreme character page? Can we call him on his mistaken assumption?

&lt;div&gt;[http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/animated-8/pictures-and-summary-for-animated-episode-25-autoboot-camp-spoilers-164832/  Guess who&#039;s confirmed for this episode?]&lt;br /&gt;

:EDITED FOR SPOILER --[[User:Dynamus Prime|Dynamus Prime]] 22:01, 7 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Disregard that, apparently it doesn&#039;t count if it hasn&#039;t aired in America.&lt;br /&gt;

:::I&#039;m sorry we would prefer not to rely on second-hand information. And stop putting your signature on a separate line. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 10:16, 8 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

== How to tell people NOT to update... ==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Do we have a big giant banner/template thing specifically for when we DO NOT want a page updated yet &lt;br /&gt;
on pain of death, because news on something is unofficial, leeked, or simply would be an exeptionally&lt;br /&gt;
annoying spoiler that a large chunk of the fandom may not want to know about? If yes we should put&lt;br /&gt;
it bang at the top middle of all these upcomming episode pages. If not can we make one? &lt;br /&gt;

{{comingsoon|No updatey until it airs in the western hemisphere.}}&lt;br /&gt;
:Is the problem that we don&#039;t want a page updated until it airs in North America, or is the problem that we don&#039;t want people to fill in episode details unless they&#039;ve seen the episode themselves?&lt;br /&gt;
:I mean, if the episode aired, then the episode aired, presumably with Hasbro&#039;s approval.  I would think we&#039;d actually want to encourage our lucky non-North American counterparts to keep the wiki up to date.&lt;br /&gt;
:If I, personally, as a resident of North America, don&#039;t want to get spoiled, it&#039;s my responsibility to stay away from the page in question.  (I have the same problem with &#039;&#039;Devastation&#039;&#039; spoliers, since it hasn&#039;t been released in TPB yet.)  [[User:JW|JW]] 14:29, 9 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::I actually think Devastation is in TPB now. Could have sworn I saw it at Borders. I&#039;ll have to double-check.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;Talk&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;]] 14:42, 9 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Secondhand fillins are probably the greater concern- but really it&#039;s both.  Being spoiled /badly/ by secondhand information that&#039;s been awkwardly grapevined by people wanting to shout &amp;quot;FIRST POST!!1&amp;quot; is even more annoying than simply being spoiled. -[[Special:Contributions/75.168.112.43|75.168.112.43]] 14:36, 9 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
:::Why is it both? I can understand not wanting to add possibly-garbled secondhand stuff. I can&#039;t understand prioritising the &amp;quot;Western Hemisphere&amp;quot; airings by themselves.&lt;br /&gt;
:::After all, GIGO was filled in before the episode aired to the Canuckleheads, and still hasn&#039;t aired in the middle bit of NA, AFAIK. Black Friday has been filled in and hasn&#039;t aired in NA at all. [Hell, Japanese episodes, including the &amp;quot;lost&amp;quot; episode of Energon, have been filled in when they&#039;re never going to air in NA at all!]&lt;br /&gt;
:::Why does a BotCon airing to a small audience get okayed, and a mass airing in a country outside of NA doesn&#039;t? - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] 15:14, 9 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::::I think the secondhand bit is the main concern here. A sufficient number of users were at the BotCon showings to check each other&#039;s work on those two episodes, and the spoilers have been confined to the episode articles themselves (IE they haven&#039;t been added to character articles yet). These episodes aired in the Middle East? Most of the existing synopses involve spotty reception that cut out at critical moments during the episode, and thus can&#039;t be considered reliable. As well, the episodes aren&#039;t widely available so people can&#039;t check each other&#039;s work. It just makes for bad methodology.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;Talk&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;]] 15:28, 9 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::::It also skips ahead 5 episodes in chronology, which is... spoilery-er than usual.  No one&#039;s actually seen seen it except a handful of random fans- and there doesn&#039;t to be confidence that the ones updating this article are the ones who /have/ seen it.  (Rather, the general belief seems to be that all the who-are-you&#039;s editing this article almost certainly &#039;&#039;haven&#039;t&#039;&#039; seen it.)    That&#039;s bad, if no one&#039;s seen the episode (including the people editing it) how can we correct inaccuracies? -[[Special:Contributions/75.168.112.43|75.168.112.43]] 04:54, 10 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
So, uh, why can we put up things like Swindle in SUV or Prowl&#039;s sidecar in Fistful with the &amp;quot;Dubai blackout&amp;quot; in place? [[Special:Contributions/220.237.141.213|220.237.141.213]] 08:16, 19 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;

===That North America mantra...===&lt;br /&gt;
It is now [http://www.tfw2005.com/transformers-news/animated-8/transformers-animated-season-2-airing-in-the-uk-from-260508-164940/ entirely possible] that this episode will get its&#039; first English-language airing in the UK. Is the &amp;quot;only in North America&amp;quot; mantra still going to stick if that&#039;s the case? - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] 22:56, 20 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:We may want to rethink that policy...seriously, why do the distributors hate American Transfans? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] 23:05, 20 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
::Might weaken a bit in that case. We&#039;ve got a fair number of European users that could double-check the work. The problem wasn&#039;t that Dubai got it before anyone so much as that Dubai got it and nearly none of us could verify if the rumors from the Dubai leak were accurate or not because most of the English speakers who had seen it didn&#039;t have sound or didn&#039;t have complete transcripts. Makes it hellishly hard to write an article that&#039;s up to our standards, and certainly didn&#039;t help that most folks acting on the leaks were only focused on dropping spoilers not coherent article writing. I don&#039;t think distributors hate American venues. Both Cartoon Network and the moose have been putting out an episode a week pretty much like they&#039;re &#039;&#039;supposed&#039;&#039; to. It&#039;s not their fault others have gone beyond that.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;Talk&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;]] 23:08, 20 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
:::&#039;tis true. Once it airs in the UK, the original, as-intended english-language version of the episode will be as accessible to the United States as any of the past Canadian broadcasts have been (by which I mean, &amp;quot;It&#039;ll be online within the blink of a gnat&#039;s sphincter.&amp;quot;), which, hey, is more than &amp;quot;Black Friday&amp;quot; has going for it. That&#039;s just not the case with the Dubai-broadcast episodes. I think if they had aired there, in English, and been uploaded, and everyone had watched them, then we wouldn&#039;t really have had such an issue about making articles for them, but since all there is to go on is photos, quick summaries, translations that can&#039;t tell us whether or not the dub reflects the intent of the English version and nothing but a desire to go &amp;quot;OMG SPOILER&amp;quot;, rather than actually contribute significantly... well, y&#039;know. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 23:14, 20 May 2008 (UTC)&lt;br /&gt;
