Really? Sentinel is supposedly emulating Bush in this episode, and not Nixon or McCarthy or some such?

''Really''?[[User:KrytenKoro|KrytenKoro]] 12:38, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

:He's imitating both, but the note at the end of the episode about making tough choices to protect, would do it again etc... was Bush. Neither Nixon nor McCarthy ever ''made'' those kinds of decisions-- even Nixon just inherited Vietnam, he never ran a fist strike. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 13:43, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

== Saur/Zaur ==

Since our article for Saur currently lives at "Saur," I've cleared out all the links to 'Zaur.' We can place the animated Article there with no conflicts.

(This might change, since IMO the official spelling of Zaur ''should'' count as an official spelling for the G1 'bot's name as well, but we can stick the Animated 'bot's article at "Zaur" (Wyatt's spelling) while we debate that. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 14:02, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

== Capitalization ==

Shouldn't this page be at [[This is Why I Hate Machines]], not [[This Is Why I Hate Machines]]?--[[Special:Contributions/86.87.28.191|86.87.28.191]] 14:03, 9 May 2009 (EDT)
:I had the same thought, but I'm not sure. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 14:06, 9 May 2009 (EDT)
: "Is" is a verb. Verbs are capitalized in titles. It is only short prepositions which are uncapitalized. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 14:11, 9 May 2009 (EDT)
::I see... it depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is! -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 14:38, 9 May 2009 (EDT)
:::Fuckity. It's not like me to forget that "is" is a verb.--[[Special:Contributions/86.87.28.191|86.87.28.191]] 16:13, 9 May 2009 (EDT)
::Short prepositions (the general limit seems to be four letters) and conjunctions. (Hence, title capitalization that seem weird to some, like "[[The House that Wheeljack Built!]]" The "that" in that phrase is actually a conjunction.) [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 16:33, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

==Continuity error==
Your continuity error isnt one.
Starscream states that Megatron managed to unlock the transformation of Omega supreme and to control the transwarp system, but not the weapons.

A true continuity error lies in the fact that when Omega transwarps at the end of the episode its in robot mode, and then it comes out of transwarp in ship mode.
