98.66.10.114: /* Caption of the Main Picture, "Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs!", is (Badly!) Incorrect */ new section

The entire fiction section need to be re-written, preferably by someone who has seen the entire VIctory series (Read: not me. I'll go ahead and move the toy stuff to the toy section. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 17:14, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
: OK, never mind. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 17:15, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

I'm up to episode 23. I might have a go. Also, the toy picture is of Victory saber

This entire article needs serious work! I mean, its just jokes at the moment with little or no content. If you're like me and don't know anything about this character, this page is going to be a serious dissapointment. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 06:09, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
: SAdly, there's not a whole hell of a lot TO him. He is, after all, a Japanese Good Guy Leader-Type. You can pretty much go from there... or, more accurately, stay right the hell there. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 06:14, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
::How about his major appearances in fiction, no matter how dull? --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 06:23, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
::: Well, yeah, obviously he DOES things that need to go in here. But, well, he's not exactly deep, character-wise. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 06:30, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
::::And not helped in the slightest by the fact that he's shallow even by those standards. He practically has nothing that would make him stand out except that he likes to go on about how he doesn't forgive those destron-yatsuras for endangering human-life/the beautiful earth/walking on flowers.

Also: Needs in-universing.

==(G1) vs. (Victory)==
When exactly did we stop using "G1" for Japanese G1 characters? Interrobang has been moving people to (KP) and (Zone) and (Victory) for days, and I don't remember that ever actually being agreed on as the standard - but I also don't necessarily keep up. That being said, I am not the only person to be confused or displeased by these moves, so whatever our standard is, it needs to be explicated a little better. -[[User:LV|LV]] 14:12, 21 June 2009 (EDT)

:I assumed that there was a debate I missed, and sanity lost.
:However I've also over-extended my ration of being pissy at Interrobang recently (I like him!) so I've only been objecting when the changes seem ''exceptionally'' wrong-headed.
:It's some sort of extension of the idea of the Armada/Energon/Cybertron disambigs... "consitency, characters by franchise" vs. "there was rampant name re-use in the UT, ncessitating this, and very little among the G1 franchises, so we can mostly get away with (G1)."
:It's a running debate we re-visit every year or so, with passionate opinions on each side. Consistency vs. simplicity/usability. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 14:18, 21 June 2009 (EDT)
:[[Transformers_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal/Archive34#Franchise_identifier_consistency]] - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 14:26, 21 June 2009 (EDT)
::I only did [[Rosanna (KP)]] and [[Dai Atlas (Zone)]]. [http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=move&user=Starfield&page= Starfield did most of the moves] based on [[Transformers_Wiki_talk:Community_Portal#Franchise_identifier_consistency|this discussion]].
::And, Derik, Jackpot already went over your UT example in the discussion linked. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 14:27, 21 June 2009 (EDT)
::Not just UT btw. We also have this consistency for the BW franchises (not to mention BW as part of G1). [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 16:17, 21 June 2009 (EDT)

== Name of the Brain ==

In the intro section it says the '''Brain of Courage''' disconnects from the Transtector and is called '''Saber'''. I don't think that is correct since in the notes section it says the Brain has no proper name and I thought that '''Saber''' was the name of the robot when not connected to the battle platform power up. - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 21:59, 24 August 2009 (EDT)
:No, it says the Brain ''connects'' to the Transtector, and the robot that is formed is called Saber. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 22:12, 24 August 2009 (EDT)
::Thanks, I don't know why I read that wrong. - [[User:Starfield|Starfield]] 22:14, 24 August 2009 (EDT)

== Caption of the Main Picture, "Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs!", is (Badly!) Incorrect ==

Hi, guys. I don't hang around here, but hopefully I can help. I came across this page while Googling something else, and I saw that the picture of Star Saber is labeled "Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs!", and - after researching the history - found that it has had that caption since September 2006 (proof: http://tfwiki.net/w2/index.php?title=Star_Saber_%28Victory%29&diff=next&oldid=80409 ). Errrmmm...SRatSS is a separate TV show created by the "Voltron" folks at World Events Productions (as seen here: http://wep.com/SaberRider.htm ), and this WEP show has nothing to do with Transformers (unless you count the fact that Peter Cullen's voice is also in Saber Rider). You've had this caption on that picture for 4+ years, but it's incorrect so I thought I should let you know.
