	:Yes, I agree that the article should stay here. Wings of Honor Sentinel Major is an homage to Animated Sentinel Prime. Animated Sentinel Prime may share a ''name'' with G1 Sentinel Prime, but that's literally all he shares. Therefore, we logically treat Sentinel Major as a new character that homages someone named Sentinel Prime, within the G1 continuity family, but is still not G1 Sentinel Prime in any way shape or form. It's very straightforward regarding how we generally handle things on the wiki, and I see no need to muddy the waters save with a disambig tag at the top.--[[User:Rosicrucian\|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian\|<sup>Talk</sup>]] 22:48, 7 April 2010 (EDT)		:Yes, I agree that the article should stay here.

I really think, when we get around to adding this info, it should go on [[Sentinel Prime (G1)]]. They are analogous characters within the same continuity family. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 12:55, 7 April 2010 (EDT)
