Would you stop removing the Mexican standoff bit from the Twenty Plus One page? That's the literal storytelling name for the battle: [1]. Escargon (talk) 19:59, 2 December 2014 (EST)

How do I send a message

I do not know how to make this anymore clearer to you. That is the literal name for this type of battle. It's origins are unfortunate, but that's what it's called. Escargon (talk) 20:43, 2 December 2014 (EST)

Welcome

We're totally waving at you!

Hi, Warpath1251! Welcome aboard!

Welcome to TFWiki.net, one of the foremost resources on all things Transformers! If you're new, we recommend you read through our help documentation before you start editing. Here's some links to specific areas of interest:

This will help you understand how TFWiki.net works, and help ease you into our odd little place. Once you feel you're accustomed, feel free to remove this message!

As a general rule, if your edits keep getting reverted, it's better to go to the talk page for the article (you can find it by clicking on the "Discussion" tab at the top of the page) and start a new discussion about the change. --abates (talk) 00:03, 3 December 2014 (EST)

Hi, please read Help:New Pages for help on creating new pages. At bare minimum a new page should tell people stuff they don't already know from the title - a page called "Autobirds" which just has the word "Autobirds" on it, is no more a useful page than if the page wasn't there at all. --abates (talk) 18:24, 3 December 2014 (EST)

Captions

[edit]

TFWiki asks that new users spend some time making factual edits before adding image captions. We consider jokey captions a perk to make improving the wiki more fun, rather than something to do for its own sake. See our captions policy page for more information. Thank you!

I can't do that if everything I know is on here already. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Warpath1251 (talkcontribs).
The wiki is never complete. Character fiction sections are often incomplete, especially for ongoing fiction like the IDW G1 universe. And please reply to messages on the same page that you receive them, as it makes conversations easier to follow. Jalaguy (talk) 17:14, 3 December 2014 (EST)

Okay how do you link characters to their page —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Warpath1251 (talkcontribs).

Hmm? What I mean is that character articles are often out-of-date on their character biographies. For example, Rung's article currently doesn't cover anything he's done after MTMTE #18. Jalaguy (talk) 17:26, 3 December 2014 (EST)

If you haven't yet contributed anything, we'd really rather you didn't simply change jokes or add new ones without adding actual content. This also holds true for removing captions whole-hog or replacing them with "information" that really isn't.
Remember, we're meant to be informative first, funny second. Write an episode summary, check out the Most Wanted Pages list or the Stubs list.

Please don't change image captions. Jalaguy (talk) 14:04, 24 January 2015 (EST)
