			==Sunstorm's DW speech emphasis pattern==
			I'm not sure how much communication the writers and artist had, but given the wrestling moves Sunstorm pulls, there may be a possibility that Sunstorm's "random" word emphasis is meant to resemble that of a pro wrestler's pre-bout rambling. You know, like the Ultimate Warrior and his old utterly insane chatter.--[[User:MCRG\|MCRG]] 01:13, 6 September 2012 (EDT)

	Are you guys sure that's Sunstorm in that panel, and not intended to be the yellow rainmaker?

Which Sunstorm in the disambig is the Thrust repaint w/ the Street Action team? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 06:44, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

Maybe the one that's not from Cybertron or Generation 1? --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 06:46, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

:I'm confused. The Sunstorm entry mentions one that follwoed Megazarak in Universe-- but the bio is that of the PVC-based Sunstorm from the OTFCC Magazine, right? Not the Thrust-recolor? Or did Thrust-recolor get so similar a bio in the botcon programme and I was unaware of it? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 07:07, 28 May 2006 (UTC)
::The Thrust recolor got no bio. So what is the source of your confusion? --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 07:10, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

I've been looking at redoign the dreamwave summary here. Tell me, did we have aname for the first arc of the Dreamwave ongoing series, #1-6? I really dont' want to link to six individual stories that are one continuious narrative. Did the canceled TPB have a name i could maybe use?

Also, I don't think the Sunbow cartoon section should say 'probably not Sunstorm' when Sunstorm was, in fact, directly modeled on that guy. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 18:50, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
::He wasn't based on the yellow guy mentioned, though. That much is correct. He was based on the screenshotted fellow from MTMTE part 1. It probably needs to be reworded for clarity. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 19:20, 16 October 2006 (UTC)
:If memory does not cheat, the name for the cancelled TPB was "Ascension." - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 19:12, 16 October 2006 (UTC)

== How are we marking up backstory? ==

The marvel comics character guides, IIRC, mark backstory as (bts) of the story it was REVEALED in, (with no care if it was supposedly occuring off screen in another story.) (usually italicised?)

I suspect we want to do this the same way- but I'm throwing it in the OTHER way here, so you can see how it'd look. I kinda partwise-feel like in-universeness means we should address this ostensibly occouring within the original story... and then I smack myself.

So... how are we documenting backstory/later revealed with our story links? -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 02:37, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
: I would say "Eh." --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 03:11, 29 November 2006 (UTC)

== Split? ==
It occurs to me that since the Sunstorm from Megazarak's dimension can't be G1 Sunstorm, we should handle him like we handle Universe Tankor and Obsidian; as a separate guy, with a brief summary explaining that he's basically the G1 guy but from elsewhere. [[User:Chip|Chip]] 02:01, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
::Frankly, I'm kind of partial to the idea of merging Obsidian and Tankor with their counterparts. They never interact with their dopplegangers (Rhinox fights Tankor in flashback, but those are separate articles anyway), and if everyone else's 30 disparate versions can share a page, so can minor Universe variations. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:15, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
:::Because, you know, think about it. Are we going to separate out G2 Brawn into his own article because he was yanked into Universe? --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:16, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
::::I don't think Brawn's a good example, because he seems to just be the G1 guy having dimension-hopped. But my Tank/Obs example isn't entirely apt, either.
::::* With Tankor and Obsidian, we're treating them as separate characters because they're explicitly separate; it's kind of like Galvatron II, where he's the same guy and he's from the same continuity family but darn it, we've got two of them. Now, while U:Tankor could be said to just replace BM:Tankor, BM:Obsidian is presumably still alive as of Universe. That forces us to treat them as separate entities.
::::*With these Sunstorms, we've got the same basic guy but from different continuity families. I think that leaving them combined would weaken our argument against saying that, for example, all of the various Optimus Primes may as well be the same guy. [[User:Chip|Chip]] 02:41, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::I don't know if I really want to consider Megazarak's universe another whole continuity family. A micro-continuity, maybe. If it fits the definition. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 02:58, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
::::::Either way, it's not G1. This is not some alternate telling of the G1 story, like Marvel or Sunbow or even the wildly different IDW stories qualify as. This is an explicitly separate universe, and as such, this is a different guy. I may just be looking at this the wrong way, but that's how it seems to me. [[User:Chip|Chip]] 04:25, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
:::::::See, I've always thought of Megazarak's universe as G1 but with Megatron named something else because Hasbro wouldn't let them. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 05:02, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
