Is this "full name" the article's been moved to found on his toy packaging? --KilMichaelMcC 14:29, 28 September 2009 (EDT)
- I don't know, but I think it was decided the wiki isn't going to be that hyper-strict about willfully ignoring crossover fiction. - Starfield 14:45, 28 September 2009 (EDT)
- When it makes sense not to, like not pretending Reed Richards isn't part of the Fantastic Four because it's not explicitly said. This is just... pointless. - Chris McFeely 14:57, 28 September 2009 (EDT)
- Yeah, if this is the character's full name from the Animorphs books and isn't mentioned on any toy packaging, then it shouldn't be the article's title, as this Wiki isn't really interested in anything from said books. Frankly, I still find having individual Animorphs pages at all to be somewhat dubious, and would prefer if all Animorphs info was collected in a single article. --KilMichaelMcC 15:53, 28 September 2009 (EDT)
- Anyway, I checked around, and actually the full name IS in the toy's bio, so changing the article title is fine. But, I am still in favor of a consolidation of all the Animorphs pages into a single article. --KilMichaelMcC 15:45, 3 October 2009 (EDT)
- Why would we do that? That's not how we treat other non-Hasbro-owned properties that they licensed for TF toys. --ItsWalky 16:38, 3 October 2009 (EDT)
- It would be because Animorphs have absolutely no connections of any kind to Transformers proper. I would have suggested the same for the Star Wars TFs, except we got the Galactic Showdown stuff with official artwork of TF and SW characters interacting. --KilMichaelMcC 16:53, 3 October 2009 (EDT)
- They got a bunch of different toys with seperate bios, so they get separate pages is what I think. In any case, I think cramming all that information in one page would impair the conveyance of information, and make for an asthetically displeasing result. The pages are fine the way they are, what is it really hurting for them to have their own pages? And Animorphs did have some sort of outside influence on Transformers properties, although somewhat indirect. From what I can remember, the BW mutants started off as Animorph toys. The Taxxons also get some reference in Animated, I believe. --Ascendron 17:02, 3 October 2009 (EDT)
