==Hikayat al-Amaliqa==
The Challenge of the GoBots was dubbed in Arabic (notably long before any Transformers cartoon) and all the characters had distinctedly different names than their English counterparts (in contrast to Transformers, which kept their original names in Arabic, with a [[Deathsaurus (Victory)|few]] [[Bumblebee (Animated)|exceptions]]). I was wondering if I should add the Arabic names to the GoBot articles? I mean, do these articles actually refer to the Challenge of the GoBot characters, or just the GoBots in the TransTech cross-universe story? -- [[User:Ziyad|Ziyad]] 19:35, 15 August 2009 (EDT)
:Since we appear to only be covering the Transformers fiction that the GoBots characters have appeared in, probably neither. --[[User:Professor Icepick|Professor Icepick]] 20:09, 15 August 2009 (EDT)

== Personality Profile? ==

Ok, I want to get a feel for how deep we want to go into these characters. I know we're sticking to events and story that take place in Transformers fiction only (not sure I always 100% agree with that, but I understand why we're doing it). But what about basic personality? I mean the main "Character Profile" paragraph at the top of the page is really sparse here. If you've watched Go-bots there is certainly more that can be said to flesh out who Cy-kill is, his personality and powers, but he hasn't really demonstrated any of that personality in his VERY brief TF appearence. Is it still fair game to add it here (within reason) to give a better idea of who Cy-kill is? Or do we want to hew really very strict to the "only in TF stuff" guidline? --[[Special:Contributions/76.28.72.27|76.28.72.27]] 10:51, 19 October 2009 (EDT)
:That's being debated at the Community Portal. --[[User:-Blackout-|-Blackout-]] 10:54, 19 October 2009 (EDT)

Since the idea of a separate wiki kinda took off, shouldn't the personality data be dropped in favour of something we can confirm relates to tf? [[User:Eire]] 22.00 Nov 5 09

== Poor Image Locaton? ==

Is there a reason there's an image of Cy-kill at the bottom of the page but not the top? I realise there's no "in-universe" pic of him to use, but if we're cool putting a pic from the GoBots toon on here at all, why not put it in the spot where it would look nicer and fill a void? --[[Special:Contributions/76.28.72.27|76.28.72.27]] 09:31, 20 October 2009 (EDT)
:Trivia/Notes sections are the only place the Wiki allows unofficial imagery. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 09:52, 20 October 2009 (EDT)

== Cartoon?==
Why didn't we add info on Cy-Kill's appearances in the cartoon?[[Special:Contributions/71.255.164.136|71.255.164.136]] 01:52, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
: We have already added info on all of Cy-Kill's appearances in the Transformers cartoon. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:00, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
:Where? I only see his appearance in the timelines comic, not the gobots or transformers cartoon.
::I refer you to what I just said. This is a Transformers wiki, not a Gobots wiki. We do not catalog Gobots fiction, only Transformers fiction. If Cy-Kill shows up in Transformers stuff, we catalog that. And we have. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 15:23, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
:::But Gobots and Transformers were both created by Hasbro, and Gobots are related to Transformers somehow. If you watched the documentuary Triple Changer, then you'd see that Gobots inspired Transformers. So basically, more info belongs here.[[Special:Contributions/71.255.164.136|71.255.164.136]] 15:47, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
::::Read [[GoBots (franchise)#Pre-GoBots]] and get back to me. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 16:23, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
:::::They are CURRENTLY in the same company.[[Special:Contributions/71.255.164.136|71.255.164.136]] 16:28, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
::::::No they aren't. Hasbro doesn't own all of Go-Bots. They merely bought Tonka. That doesn't mean they own all of the intellectual property involved. Rival toy company Bandai still owns the toys and Hanna-Barbara still owns the cartoon. At best, Hasbro owns some names. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 16:45, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
:::::::Not to agree with this guy per say, but I just want to remind folks: 1) We did hold a vote of users, who at the time overwhelmingly approved that they wanted to do a separate-but-linked Go-Bots wiki as a sister thing under the TFwiki.net banner. And 2) Since that vote the Allspark Almanac officially established that the much interlinked franchise is a part of the TF Multiverse (if there was any doubt) and MORE that GoBotron is their universes body of Primus and the Go-Bots are their universes TFs. Soooo... Why keep them out? It's not like they'd even add THAT much. They've had nothing to talk about that's not here already in 20 years, and were fairly small then. I really can't think of a valid reason to ignore the retcon that they are and have always been TFs. I kinda feel they belong here. They didn't always, but now? Yes.--[[Special:Contributions/99.103.104.77|99.103.104.77]] 17:04, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
