Megatron's Alt Form: Seeker altmodes.

New page

Will each Gathering and Infiltration issue get its own page? - [[User:207.112.110.135|207.112.110.135]] 20:57, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

:While the IDW G1 series in general should get its own page seperate from those on Infiltration, Escalation, etc., I'd say no, each individual issue shouldn't get its own page. Just give each story arc its own page (like we have one for Infiltration right now; this is how things are done for the Marvel comics already). I'd also lean heavily towards not giving individual issues of a mini-series their own pages, since it seems kinda pointless. --[[User:69.195.82.24|69.195.82.24]] 21:51, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

::Whoops, that was me. --[[User:Suki Brits|Suki Brits]] 21:51, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

Of course, that's already been done with the TFTM adaptation and Headmasters. - [[User:RolonBolon|RolonBolon]] 22:22, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
:As the person who's ended up creating the vast bulk of these entries, I can only say that the standard I've been using is, if the comic issue has a separate title, it gets a separate entry. Therefore, the four US issues of the Underbase Saga each get their own page, as does each issue of the two series you mention, but Time Wars gets one entry for the large number of issues it got. Anyone who feels this is inappropriate is welcome to make changes, but be warned that there's been a lot of precedent set by now (admittedly, mostly by me, but that's only because there really hasn't been anyone else doing comics).--[[User:G.B. Blackrock|G.B. Blackrock]] 23:40, 26 April 2006 (UTC)
:: I kinda prefer a page-per-issue deal, but I could easily be outnumbered by you folk. For example, the Fan Club comics share ongoing storylines, but there's so many continuity notes for each individual issue I think it would be confusing to keep track of things otherwise. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 01:02, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
:::For the US comics, I could make such revision quite easily (in fact, would probably only have to make one or two changes at most), if that's what people want. I was under the impression that "by story" was considered preferable when I started, mostly because we didn't seem to want redundant pages for UK comics that were essentially the same as US ones. However, I'd be happy to go "page-per-issue" with the US stuff that I've already done.--[[User:G.B. Blackrock|G.B. Blackrock]] 02:00, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

::::I was thinking about this the other day- I think it has to be both consistent, and express that which is most appropriate.
::::In a lot of cases in modern storytelling (ugh) the same 'stuff' is appening in all the issues, with no different 'flavor' or focus to an individual issue. these usually have 1 title for 6 issues, and i feel its appropriate to cover them as one story.
::::Ultimately, i think if yu have a 1-title 6 issue series that actually has 6 very different storie in it (as sometimes happens) maybe it shoudl just be broken up into issue-numbered sub-sections on the story page. One of the benefits of a source as open-ended as Wiki is that you're not oppressd by a standard-- you can always go in and make exceptions/custom layouts. We have 2or 3 disambig templates, for example. Multiple standard layouts that best address the material, so to speak. -[[User:Derik|derik]]18:51, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
:::::While I agree that it's an advantage not to be "oppressed by a standard," I'm rather a fan of standarization where appropriate.

:::::::I dunno! I still think we should just break up the over-arcing Infiltration page into individual issues, as we do most other issues, just for Referencing purposes. It's kinda bothering me that on [[Ratchet (G1)]]'s page, there's just a single footnote tag at the beginning of the IDW section that links to the entire miniseries, when ideally I could link individual sentences to the actual issue they reference. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 05:29, 21 August 2006 (UTC)

:::For the US comics, I could make such revision quite easily (in fact, would probably only have to make one or two changes at most), if that's what people want. I was under the impression that "by story" was considered preferable when I started, mostly because we didn't seem to want redundant pages for UK comics that were essentially the same as US ones. However, I'd be happy to go "page-per-issue" with the US stuff that I've already done.--[[User:G.B. Blackrock|G.B. Blackrock]] 02:00, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

::::I was thinking about this the other day- I think it has to be both consistent, and express that which is most appropriate.
::::In a lot of cases in modern storytelling (ugh) the same 'stuff' is appening in all the issues, with no different 'flavor' or focus to an individual issue. these usually have 1 title for 6 issues, and i feel its appropriate to cover them as one story.
::::Ultimately, i think if yu have a 1-title 6 issue series that actually has 6 very different storie in it (as sometimes happens) maybe it shoudl just be broken up into issue-numbered sub-sections on the story page. One of the benefits of a source as open-ended as Wiki is that you're not oppressd by a standard-- you can always go in and make exceptions/custom layouts. We have 2or 3 disambig templates, for example. Multiple standard layouts that best address the material, so to speak. -[[User:Derik|derik]]18:51, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
:::::While I agree that it's an advantage not to be "oppressed by a standard," I'm rather a fan of standarization where appropriate. As far as possible, articles about similar things should follow similar patterns, if you get my meaning.--[[User:G.B. Blackrock|G.B. Blackrock]] 21:44, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

== Megatron's Alt Form ==

Not having my issue of The War Within on me, did Megatron have the same appearance, and if so, what was his alt-mode? --[[User:165.69.2.237|165.69.2.237]] 05:15, 21 August 2006 (UTC)<div id="wikia-credits"><br /><br /><small>From [http://transformers.wikia.com Teletraan I: The Transformers Wiki], a [http://www.wikia.com Wikia] wiki.</small></div>
