Talk:Optronix (disambiguation)

Is this page really necessary? --Flicky1991 11:38, 3 January 2013 (EST)

Yes, to make it possible for someone to find the Optronix they are looking for, since the Optimus Prime (G1) and Optimus Prime (SG) pages do not have "Optronix" disambiguation boxes at the top of the page. If someone types "Optronix" it redirects here, letting the user know about the two different Optronixes in Transformers. - Starfield 11:50, 3 January 2013 (EST)

Isn't the better solution to just note it on those pages? --Flicky1991 11:58, 3 January 2013 (EST)

And isn't anyone searching for "Optronix" pretty much guaranteed to know that he's Optimus Prime?--Rosicrucian^Talk 12:10, 3 January 2013 (EST)

Though to bottom-line it for you here, Starfield, policy is that a disambiguation article is only for 3 or more articles. You can always add another disambiguation box at the top of an article.--Rosicrucian^Talk 12:27, 3 January 2013 (EST)

Me? Why is this personal? This page has been here for three and a half years, and I didn't make it. I don't see why this is a bad solution. Someone is highly unlikely to type "Optronix," but if they do, it redirects here where they find links to both Optronixes. "Optronix" is kind of obscure to put at the top of an Optimus Prime page, seeing how that disambiguation box would always be there for everybody for the sake of the 0.0001% of the people who would actually type in "Optronix." How about this for another solution—redirect "Optronix" to "Orion Pax (disambiguation)" as basically the one-stop shopping pre-Optimus Prime disambiguation page. - Starfield 12:50, 3 January 2013 (EST)

And over ten years later, I'm still not really sure whether this page is necessary. Thoughts? S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent 47 (talk) 02:05, 21 November 2024 (EST)

Add both to Orion Paxs page under "Not to be confused with".Poliwag06 (talk) 02:21, 21 November 2024 (EST)

I would merge with the Orion Pax disambig, since it's effectively the same concept. Saix (talk) 11:13, 21 November 2024 (EST)
