Klink: /* The Vigilant Town */ new section

Dude, stop. English names are not transferred across different characters. Big Convoy is not Big Prime. [[Gren]] is not Hook. Gaia Guardian is not Gaia Defensor, etc. [[User:Mimi|Mimi]] 21:50, 14 September 2013 (EDT)
:Big Convoy has never been named in English, Gren's never been named as that, and Gaia Guardian doesn't have an English name. Those examples don't work at all. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 21:55, 14 September 2013 (EDT)
::You are severely missing the point. The Kre-O character has no name, English or otherwise. All we have is the assumed intent of the writer (so, "Alexa"). What applies to the original character does not automatically apply to homages, as I've shown with my examples.
::And, frankly, if you had an issue, a better method of action would have been discussing rather than automatically reverting the preference of the person taking the time to make those pages! [[User:Mimi|Mimi]] 22:03, 14 September 2013 (EDT)
:: Mimi has a point. using the Alexis/Alexa Kre-o as an example; this wiki typically uses the Japanese name unless/until and English name is made. So, while the Kre-O character might be based off Alexis from Armada, we must call her what the comic calls her. And since the comic calls her nothing, author intent is all we have to go on. I say stick with Alexa but keep the reference to Alexis in the notes/[[User:Stevo|Stevo]] 22:27, 14 September 2013 (EDT)
:::Eh. Whatever, I don't even know all that much about the Japanese names, so I'm not the best one to ask about it. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 16:59, 15 September 2013 (EDT)

Please don't say that being a woman is an insult. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 22:32, 22 September 2013 (EDT)
:For clarification, I think [http://tfwiki.net/mediawiki/index.php?title=Waspinator_(BW)&curid=335&diff=828439&oldid=827733&rcid=666524 Supernova222] was the one who said it first. Just letting that out there. --[[User:Inkblot|Inkblot]] 22:48, 22 September 2013 (EDT)
:I wasn't trying to sir. Inkblot is correct. I just undid my revision cause I wasn't sure if it was correct or not. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 06:37, 23 September 2013 (EDT)
:(sometimes I should just sit down and shut up.) [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 06:40, 23 September 2013 (EDT)

You need to settle down just a little bit. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 19:34, 12 October 2013 (EDT)
:Sorry, sir. I just got a bit too angry.[[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 19:38, 12 October 2013 (EDT)

Please explain why you revert everything I contribute on this wiki?! - [[User:SoundWave|SoundWave]] 15:53, 19 October 2013 (EDT)
:The Ravage note was unessasary. The Team Prime image was fine, though you might want to move it to the episode section. Also, good job on editing the Soundwave ROTF page, the rape thing is one of the few PG-13 level things that is not accepted here. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 15:56, 19 October 2013 (EDT)
:: Thanks. - [[User:SoundWave|SoundWave]] 16:01, 19 October 2013 (EDT)

Why did you remove my talk on the Knock Out page? I thought the talk pages were for disscussing changes? - [[User:Bumblejumper|Bumblejumper]] 22:13, 4 November 2013 (EST)
:You're saying that being gay is a bad thing, and that is not acceptable. Quit it right now. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 22:15, 4 November 2013 (EST)
::Sorry, but being gay really is a bad thing, the Bible says so. But if the wiki community doesn't want it on there I won't add it again, okay? :) - [[User:Bumblejumper|Bumblejumper]] 22:19, 4 November 2013 (EST)
:::No, it's not a bad thing. If you ever add that again, you will get into some major trouble. Now don't add it again. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 22:21, 4 November 2013 (EST)
::::Sorry, I won't add it again. But plz don't be so cross, I didn't know it was against the rules I'm new here. what exactly do not mean "major trouble? - [[User:Bumblejumper|Bumblejumper]] 22:24, 4 November 2013 (EST)
:::::Being banned. Saying stuff like that is absolutely against the rules. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 22:29, 4 November 2013 (EST)
::::::Okay, it's completely understood. :) But if I say "Bank robbers stink" is that okay? (Just thought I'd better ask so I don't violate any more rules, LOL, not off to a very good start, am I? :))BTW, you got a YouTube channel friend? - [[User:Bumblejumper|Bumblejumper]] 22:33, 4 November 2013 (EST)
::::::::That is acceptable. And no, I don't. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] 22:36, 4 November 2013 (EST)

For the second time, chill. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 00:51, 5 November 2013 (EST)

== [[Zobovor]]'s fake BW names on BW DVD ==

Thanks for reverting my edit. i really thought those were preliminary names for the BW characters! --[[User:Rhymus|Rhymus]] ([[User talk:Rhymus|talk]]) 05:32, 25 November 2013 (EST)

== Moving pages ==

You realise that when you move pages, as you've been doing when Kre-O cameos show up without even making a <nowiki>[[x (Kre-O)]]</nowiki> page, you're meant to fix the links to point to the new page, yes? [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Rattrap]] alone shows 333 ''mainspace'' links! (There's a reason for the bolded "Warning! This can be a drastic and unexpected change for a popular page; please be sure you understand the consequences of this before proceeding." text!). - [[User:SanityOrMadness|SanityOrMadness]] ([[User talk:SanityOrMadness|talk]]) 22:49, 24 January 2014 (EST)

=Prime image=

Why did you revert my optimus prime edit and the edit someone else did? --[[User:TillAllR1|TillAllR1]] ([[User talk:TillAllR1|talk]]) 14:08, 16 April 2014 (EDT)
:For main images we use the first body or the body the characters had the most. Optimus Prime's appeared more in his body from the first three movies than the one from AOE, so we're sticking with the image we already had. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] ([[User talk:Escargon|talk]]) 14:11, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

Would it not make sense to have a up to date image? --[[User:TillAllR1|TillAllR1]] ([[User talk:TillAllR1|talk]]) 14:16, 16 April 2014 (EDT)
:That's not how it works. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] ([[User talk:Escargon|talk]]) 14:17, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

But shouldn't it be? --[[User:TillAllR1|TillAllR1]] ([[User talk:TillAllR1|talk]]) 14:19, 16 April 2014 (EDT)
:No. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] ([[User talk:Escargon|talk]]) 14:19, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

It would inform those not aware of the change, make the wiki seem up to date and would be a accurate representation of the character as he is now. --[[User:TillAllR1|TillAllR1]] ([[User talk:TillAllR1|talk]]) 14:24, 16 April 2014 (EDT)
:Look, I didn't make the rules. You're going to have to ask someone like Itswalky, abates, or M Sipher about it. [[User:Escargon|Escargon]] ([[User talk:Escargon|talk]]) 14:27, 16 April 2014 (EDT)
::Even then that image he uploaded is no good. Prime is smooshed in the center with all that wasted space on the big OPTIMUS PRIME in the background. We need a good clear shot of the character. --[[User:Detour|Detour]] ([[User talk:Detour|talk]]) 19:14, 16 April 2014 (EDT)

== The Vigilant Town ==

Youtube version is actually edited in the last scene, explaining the Decepticon insignia: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtEwQrlEAI4

But the Hub network released this episode on their website, and most likely that's the original non-edited episode. http://www.hubnetwork.com/shows/transformers-rescue-bots/videos/full-episode-the-island-of-misfit-tech-episode-13-season-2

Please check the differences before reverting. [[User:Klink|Klink]] ([[User talk:Klink|talk]]) 23:46, 24 May 2014 (EDT)

'''The new computer designed to keep Griffin Rock safe becomes dangerous.'''

==Synopsis==
[[Heatwave (RB)|Heatwave]] and [[Kade Burns|Kade]] are helping [[Sharma|Mr Sharma]] from a burning building when [[Charlie Burns|Chief Burns]] warns them over the comm about a falling beam. Heatwave easily catches it, so Chief checks on the rescue [[Blades (RB)|Blades]] and [[Dani Burns|Dani]] are conducting and witnesses a near miss as the ground nearly crumbles under Blades's feet. He checks in on [[Graham Burns|Graham]] and [[Jerry (RB)|Jerry]] at the junkyard, to make sure the [[Scrapmaster]] is fully debugged. When Graham asks about [[Cody Burns|Cody]], Chief realizes he's late to see the scooter race Cody is taking part in. Elsewhere, the scooter race starts, but a garbage truck wanders onto the track, forcing Cody to turn and sending him uncontrolled down a sloping street. At the bottom he's caught by [[Chase (RB)|Chase]], who wants to issue a citation until Chief points out that the truck is automated, run by the town's central computer.

[[Luskey|Mayor Luskey]] announces the arrival of a new central computer — a Vigilant model computer which the [[Rescue Bot]]s unload from the [[Griffin Rock ferry|ferry]]. Luskey fires the computer up, and it introduces itself as [[Vigil]]. The Bots load Vigil onto a truck, while the Burns discuss whether they really need a computer that can tap into all technology. The Bots don't think the promise of a 100% safe [[Griffin Rock]] is possible, and Cody heads over to the laboratory in [[Rolling Thunder]] to watch Vigil's first activation. Installed in one of the laboratory's sublevels, Vigil is protected by a vault door and security system including sonic cannons. [[Doc Greene]] suggests that Vigil should be tested initially, but Luskey is determined to forge ahead and activates Vigil at full capability. Vigil immediately addresses everyone by name, and reveals it knows they're there because he's tracking them by their mobile phones. Luskey is unconcerned by the privacy implications.

[[Don]] is speeding, with Chase and the Chief in pursuit when Vigil takes over his car, forcing it to stop. Kade and Heatwave have to deal with a [[Elsie|runaway baby]], which is brought to a halt by a window washer controlled by Vigil. Cody takes an emergency call about a fire at the junkyard, and the team rushes there, only to be blocked from going in by two garbage trucks. Vigil explains that as he can't take over the team's Bots, he can't let them go in because he can't guarantee their safety. Cody spots Jerry unconscious inside, but as Jerry's left his phone at home, Vigil believes the junkyard to be empty. The Bots vault the garbage trucks and start fighting the fire, with Blades and Dani rescuing Jerry. When Chief explains what happened to Vigil, Vigil believes the solution is to make it mandatory for everyone to carry mobile phones.

Discarding their communication devices, the team goes down to the bunker to discuss the problem. Chief contacts Doc Greene, who has encountered another problem — Vigil has forbidden Frankie from using the kitchen because she's too young. Doc Greene and Frankie go down to tweak Vigil's program, but Vigil takes over [[Dither]] and chases them out of the vault with security measures and traps them in the lift. Frankie has an incoming call from Cody and is able to update him before Vigil interrupts the call. The rescue team goes to head out, only to find the fire house is surrounded by [[robo-landscaper]]s. The team heads back down into the bunker, and starts heading through the tunnel network. [[Huxley Prescott]] reports that Vigil has the town completely locked down, with robots patrolling the streets.

The rescue team reaches a chamber beneath the lab, and Heatwave determines that there's a grid of laser tripwires. The Bots are able to bypass them by climbing along a pipe on the ceiling, and scale the lift shaft to find the trapped Greenes. They get through the vault door by luring the sonic cannons into blasting it open, and reach Vigil. [[Boulder]] finds that the master switch is deactivated, and when they physically attack the computer, Vigil announces that he's going to fill the vault with an electrical surge. The team's about to back off, but when Cody points out that Vigil is endangering the human members of the team, the computer suffers a conflict in its primary directives and overloads, with Heatwave adding a punch for good measure. Later, Huxley reports on the newly liberated Griffin Rock. The Burns family holds a scooter race of their own, and the Rescue Bots throw Vigil into the [[Beam Box]]. Vigil lands up on a junk pile on the [[Island of Misfit Tech]].
