Sorry if I wasn't aware of this, but has there been a discussion about making a "''series'' Character" category and putting all the characters into it?
==Dross==
Also, the Classics category does not belong in the Generation 1 category. The Classics Mini-cons aren't from G1, nor is Leo Prime. --[[User:FortMax|FortMax]] 17:07, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
''"The extent of what I can gather from Google translate."''<br>
Google-translating what, exactly? I see brief mentions of it in the J-Wiki article for ''BWII'' (specifically, in the paragraphs on BigMos and Autostinger), but if you found some other source, I can take a look at it and see if there's anything else to be gleaned.--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 16:47, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
:[http://xeel.aikotoba.jp/storage/bw2/bw2n01.html#%E3%82%A4%E3%83%B3%E3%82%BB%E3%82%AF%E3%83%88%E3%83%AD%E3%83%B3]. Many thanks! Can you also glean anything about Planet [[Trius]] (トリアス) from that same site? [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 17:07, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
::Okay, that took less time than I thought once I looked at the page.


:Every new iteration of G1 has added unique characters. In DreamwaveG1, we got [[Fallen|the Fallen]], [[Gravitas]] and the other ancients, [[Backbite]] and his assassin team, etc.  The IDW comics have given us a bunch of new humans and even a [[Calabi-Yau|named spaceship]].  ''Classics'' is likewise a G1 continuity because of its core cast and overall theme. - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]]
::Dross is mentioned all of once. During the Dross Crusades, Autostinger saved Bigmos's life.


::I ''think'' I read in some report out of BotCon that the Classics Mini-Cons are going to be considered part of a G1 universe. Can anyone confirm that? --[[User:KilMichaelMcC|KilMichaelMcC]] 17:58, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
::Trius comes up twice in the Jointron entry. The Jointrons went out into space to protect Trius on orders from Autobot HQ, but en route, their ship broke down (possibly owing to a problem with their helmsmanship), and they reluctantly crash-landed on Gaia. The summary also notes this may have left Trius more peaceful than if they'd gone there, but doesn't mention it otherwise.
:::Whoo, thanks. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 18:31, 6 September 2011 (EDT)


::: I can. Forrest Lee stated the Classics Mini-Cons ARE, fictionally, part of the Classics "neo-G1" universe. Which I wholeheartedly approve of. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 19:15, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
==Blind as a bat in battle==
I can't check the episodes to figure out which right now, but I ''know'' that the Metrodome subs also used this translation in, like, ''one'' instance, late in the series, which would suggest to me that for that one time at least, that's actually what he was saying. I wonder if Shout have extrapolated backwards and used it for all the instances of nonsense-speak in the name of consistency. - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 20:14, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
:Interesting. I'll see if I can get the Metrodome version to check, or see if the TV-Nihon translation has that. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 20:18, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
::Doing a quick YouTube check (just before bed!), I can say that he actually ''does'' say "Komori" as part of his chant, and that's a word that I ''do'' know the meaning of. So... maybe that IS what he's always saying. (The two TV Nihon episodes I've just sampled don't translate it.) - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 20:20, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
:::Hrm, then I guess I'll comment out those points for the time being, at least till we get a Japanese speaker to confirm. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 20:25, 4 August 2011 (EDT)


::::My first reaction was, "WHAT fiction?"  But then it occurred to me that the ''Classics'' line has already seeped into the IDW-G1 universe via Jetfire. How much crossover can happen before we consider them one and the same (well, as one-and-the-same as, say, DW-Energon and the Energon toys)?
==Almanac stuff==
:::::Doubt that'll happen.  At the fan club magazine panel, [[Forest Lee]] said that next year's fan club newsletter comic storyline was probably going to use the Classics in a post-Marvel Comics universe. --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 19:35, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

::Any idea which of those planet pages is article 14.000? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:43, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
:::[[Giedi Prime]], I think. I aimed for that because it was Sorenson's screen name. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 05:45, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
::::Works for me! And thanks for dealing with all these TAAII planets. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 05:48, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
:::::I must also give you praise for all your work, since you saved ''me'' from having to do it. Also, I think the "dim. research" note on [[Skriixos V]] doesn't actually mean dim but is short for "dimensional research", referencing the Skriix and their being from another dimension. --[[User:Apoc|Apoc]] 06:58, 10 August 2011 (EDT)

That said, are you SURE that all the throw-away companies that are just a name and a number need pages? They were just thrown in there as a joke and to make people in-the-know smile.--[[User:Jimsorenson|Jimsorenson]] 13:57, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
:Uh, yeah. Really, I think that's all best folded into the ASAII reference pages. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 14:08, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
::This is the chaos you have wrought, Jim! (Really, though, I don't see how it's that different from the 100+ "throw-away" planets and it's not like having those articles impede anything. I also think it's neat to learn that those companies exist in Transformers fiction somewhere.) [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 14:10, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
:::Ah, well, a planet that ONLY showed up on that map, and nowhere else in fiction, might not deserve its own page either, now that you mention it. Maybe with an exception for planets that have some other connection to the fiction, like [[Yautja]] since we already have a page for the [[Predator (alien)|Predator]].--[[User:Jimsorenson|Jimsorenson]] 14:16, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
:::At most I think they'd deserve a redirect page with a "Companies" and "Planets" Categories so they show UP in said Categories, but they should redirect to the ASAII reference section. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 14:17, 11 August 2011 (EDT)


::::::Actually, I wonder how that'll square with their apparent plan to keep annually releasing the clear Energon combiner figures.  Maybe those characters will jump out of the UT dimension and into the Marvel comic universe? - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 21:57, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

::::Bingo. Thanks for all your hard work.--[[User:Jimsorenson|Jimsorenson]] 10:26, 19 November 2011 (EST)
:::::Aw, it isn't anything, but you're welcome. Thanks for the shout out! [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 10:29, 19 November 2011 (EST)


:::::::They will. Skyfall and Landquake will be taking center stage, and presumably combiner #3 will have ended up in G1-land, #4 in post-movie-land, etc. Also, Unicron is now a focal point of the comic too, so there you go. --[[User:M Sipher|M Sipher]] 22:15, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

RE: [[Packrat]], [[Fractyl]], etc.:  At what point does "speculation" become unsuitable for this Wiki when we're dealing with a storyline that can't be explained without severe untangling and hole-filling?  Is it a matter of phrasing or italicizing?  The bits you deleted weren't random, Neale-style "apocrypha." Those characters are on the outskirts of a major time-travel storyline that ends with an entire timeline being negated, canonically.  And there are good reasons to think that their BW adventures went "poof" along with the rest.  (See Derik and my discussion on [[Vice Grip]].) No, it's not a NECESSARY conclusion, nor did I suggest that it was.  But it's a strong enough possibility that I think we do the Wiki a disservice if it's not mentioned. - [[User:Jackpot|Jackpot]] 08:36, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
==AAII==
:Yeah, but you could have said it in under 20 words.  '''And''' your time-altering explanation doesnt' fit the sequence of events. '''And'''... this is really more appropriate as a general entry on the main 3h Fiction page, nothign that their 'extra characters' fit badly aroudn the edges of the universe. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 08:49, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
Are you sure you have not misspelled "Emirate 'Xarron' Spacebridge Nexus" and "Zetca-" (the latter over at "Serpentor") and could you improve "Quartex (region)"? It's an ugly and confusing page right now. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 03:28, 23 August 2011 (EDT)
:Those are spelled as such in the AAII. I'll go off and fix Quartex. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 03:33, 23 August 2011 (EDT)

You realize there are English parts of the Japanese episode titles for the series, right? All of which are lower case, and not all of which line up with the actual dub titles?

Please don't orphan pages by deleting sections you find aesthetically displeasing.
--[[User:Monzo|Monzo]] 11:08, 31 August 2011 (EDT)
:The only one that doesn't match (aside from parsing variations) is "First Encounter". That aside, they're only providing the English titles to a Japanese audience; I don't consider them part of the actual Japanese title and the Japanese sources I've seen don't. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 11:32, 31 August 2011 (EDT)


If you want to remove those sections then, ''at minimum'', it falls to you to to link those orphaned articles up. -[[User:Derik|Derik]] 18:21, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
==Japanese Beast Era screencaps==
We have a lot of BWII and BWN screencaps of which the episode is unknown. Since you are sorting out the Japanese BE stuff, do you think you could get them properly sourced? Most are currently in the "Hastak images" category, but I could get them to the "images from unknown sources" category to save you the time finding them in the other category. [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 02:43, 9 September 2011 (EDT)
:Sure, I'll see what I can identify. Toss them into unknown sources or list them here. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 02:51, 9 September 2011 (EDT)


==Manga question==
I want to write an article for the ''Go-Bots'' manga later today and I have two questions. The stories are all very simple and can often be described in one or two sentences. Yet, there's a lot of stories. Should I put up a a page for each one or put them all in one article? Also, the manga issues aren't numbered and some appear to have been released at the same time. Should I order them alphabetically or would there be a better option? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 02:56, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
:My gut instinct would be to give an article to every installment; it's easier to give space for featured characters and the infobox that way, instead of clumping them all into one page. Also easier to storylink. In regards to order, I think release date and then alphabetical is fine, if they have no other identifying marks. Were the toys numbered? [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 03:03, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
::Seems they were according to the Go-Bots fansite. Ordering by those numbers seems a much better idea, so I'll go with that. Thanks. Oh, and perhaps to prevent pages being put up on the wrong "title", what do you think of translating "かつやく" as "service"? [[User:Geewunling|Geewunling]] 03:13, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
:::I need to know the context of the word before I can give any suggestions. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 03:21, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
:::Oh, they're on the fansite. Yeah, "service" seems the most appropriate. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 03:27, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

:Yes, but he was following precedent set elsewhere. "Localization" is used because not all foreign versions are dubs, like the sub-only English releases of Japanese series. [[User:Interrobang|—Interrobang]] 16:49, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
::So do we use "localization" as the new standard now? Or is this a case by case basis? --[[User:Detour|Detour]] 18:25, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Yeah, I honestly made that edit (Overkill) expecting it would get reverted. For some reason I considered that the best method by which to point out what seemed to be the confusion. The anon seemed unaware of the Classics version from the customizing class, so his stance seemed to be based solely around the tape body. So I thought I'd point out the confusion.

:::::(The concern is that if a non-link value in a complex template, e.g. 'idw' were the same as a link being fixed, it could screw things up.

Maybe we *should* specify bodies on the list, though, given this confusion?

==Category changes==
==Deathbringer==
Hey, Interrobang -- I wish you wouldn't make such sweeping category changes without posting a notice to the relevant talk page first, just to double-check things.  For example, the discussion in [[Category talk:Siblings]] sort of went in a "let's have a general category for all relatives" direction without quite reaching consensus. Now that the siblings category is empty, it will be a lot more work to fill up a "has relatives" category if/when we make one, because we'll have to "rediscover" all the sibling articles.  --[[User:Steve-o|Steve-o]] 21:59, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

==Boxart scans/DVD covers==
==Wrong argument==
Perhaps you should have read the Rewind/Eject discussion before taking a shot a me. The discussion I had with Walky was about poor quality scans that were jagged and badly cut out, and eventually steve-o agreed. As for the DVD covers I plan on uploading images of every DVD release of Transformers from the various distributors over time. Also, I left Amazon's white space intact because '''wide''' images are easier to format the page to than '''tall''' images. Tall images, without enough text, either cuts into other sections or create massive whitespace. I have uploaded alot of images, so I know from experience how they affect formatting, you know. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 08:23, 22 December 2007 (UTC)

Those are a bit harder to do in one big swoop. I was sticking to cleaning out the speedy deletion queue, as there's nothing lost if I just delete the whole dang category's contents. That category you've pointed out is a mixed bag, as it has more than a few legitimate images in it. Likely good to hold off on those until Derik has sicced the bot on 'em, unless you feel like tagging them by hand. As it is I ended up deleting around 800 of 'em from the speedy cat, so I'm kind of pooped. Even categorized it's still pretty much hand-done, just mindlessly so with sixteen tabs open at a time.--[[User:Rosicrucian|Rosicrucian]][[User Talk:Rosicrucian|<sup>Talk</sup>]] 22:00, 26 March 2009 (EDT)

Things to get a bot to do

[edit]
  • Replace all instances of {{m-}} with —.

Remove redirects

[edit]

Things to do by hand

[edit]
[edit]

Dross

[edit]

"The extent of what I can gather from Google translate."
Google-translating what, exactly? I see brief mentions of it in the J-Wiki article for BWII (specifically, in the paragraphs on BigMos and Autostinger), but if you found some other source, I can take a look at it and see if there's anything else to be gleaned.--Apcog 16:47, 4 August 2011 (EDT)

[1]. Many thanks! Can you also glean anything about Planet Trius (トリアス) from that same site? —Interrobang 17:07, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
Okay, that took less time than I thought once I looked at the page.
Dross is mentioned all of once. During the Dross Crusades, Autostinger saved Bigmos's life.
Trius comes up twice in the Jointron entry. The Jointrons went out into space to protect Trius on orders from Autobot HQ, but en route, their ship broke down (possibly owing to a problem with their helmsmanship), and they reluctantly crash-landed on Gaia. The summary also notes this may have left Trius more peaceful than if they'd gone there, but doesn't mention it otherwise.
Whoo, thanks. —Interrobang 18:31, 6 September 2011 (EDT)

Blind as a bat in battle

[edit]

I can't check the episodes to figure out which right now, but I know that the Metrodome subs also used this translation in, like, one instance, late in the series, which would suggest to me that for that one time at least, that's actually what he was saying. I wonder if Shout have extrapolated backwards and used it for all the instances of nonsense-speak in the name of consistency. - Chris McFeely 20:14, 4 August 2011 (EDT)

Interesting. I'll see if I can get the Metrodome version to check, or see if the TV-Nihon translation has that. —Interrobang 20:18, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
Doing a quick YouTube check (just before bed!), I can say that he actually does say "Komori" as part of his chant, and that's a word that I do know the meaning of. So... maybe that IS what he's always saying. (The two TV Nihon episodes I've just sampled don't translate it.) - Chris McFeely 20:20, 4 August 2011 (EDT)
Hrm, then I guess I'll comment out those points for the time being, at least till we get a Japanese speaker to confirm. —Interrobang 20:25, 4 August 2011 (EDT)

Almanac stuff

[edit]

Dude, you are a tireless workhorse and I salute your efforts. --Jimsorenson 23:50, 9 August 2011 (EDT)

Thanks! All of those blank sections and red links were annoying me so much that I finally just brought the thing after putting it off for so long. —Interrobang 23:54, 9 August 2011 (EDT)
Any idea which of those planet pages is article 14.000? Geewunling 05:43, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
Giedi Prime, I think. I aimed for that because it was Sorenson's screen name. —Interrobang 05:45, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
Works for me! And thanks for dealing with all these TAAII planets. Geewunling 05:48, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
I must also give you praise for all your work, since you saved me from having to do it. Also, I think the "dim. research" note on Skriixos V doesn't actually mean dim but is short for "dimensional research", referencing the Skriix and their being from another dimension. --Apoc 06:58, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
Should all those planets from external properties (Gor, etc) be in the External Properties category? --Monzo 07:30, 10 August 2011 (EDT)
Now that I think about it, yeah. —Interrobang 07:32, 10 August 2011 (EDT)

That said, are you SURE that all the throw-away companies that are just a name and a number need pages? They were just thrown in there as a joke and to make people in-the-know smile.--Jimsorenson 13:57, 11 August 2011 (EDT)

Uh, yeah. Really, I think that's all best folded into the ASAII reference pages. --M Sipher 14:08, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
This is the chaos you have wrought, Jim! (Really, though, I don't see how it's that different from the 100+ "throw-away" planets and it's not like having those articles impede anything. I also think it's neat to learn that those companies exist in Transformers fiction somewhere.) —Interrobang 14:10, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
Ah, well, a planet that ONLY showed up on that map, and nowhere else in fiction, might not deserve its own page either, now that you mention it. Maybe with an exception for planets that have some other connection to the fiction, like Yautja since we already have a page for the Predator.--Jimsorenson 14:16, 11 August 2011 (EDT)
At most I think they'd deserve a redirect page with a "Companies" and "Planets" Categories so they show UP in said Categories, but they should redirect to the ASAII reference section. --M Sipher 14:17, 11 August 2011 (EDT)

Hehehehe... I just did something nice for you that you won't find out about for a few months... hehehe... --Jimsorenson 23:21, 19 August 2011 (EDT)

Aw, you made my day. Looking forward to whatever you have planning. :D —Interrobang 00:11, 20 August 2011 (EDT)
Did you spot it?--Jimsorenson 10:16, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Heh, under Cheetor's vehicle mode, right? —Interrobang 10:24, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Bingo. Thanks for all your hard work.--Jimsorenson 10:26, 19 November 2011 (EST)
Aw, it isn't anything, but you're welcome. Thanks for the shout out! —Interrobang 10:29, 19 November 2011 (EST)

Great Dome

[edit]

Does the Shout! Factory edition of "Four Warriors Come out of the Sky" name the Autobot base on Cybertron "Autobot Base" or "Iacon"? Geewunling 01:59, 22 August 2011 (EDT)

The subtitle for the place name? "Autobot Headquarters". —Interrobang 02:10, 22 August 2011 (EDT)
Yep, that one. Thanks! Geewunling 02:14, 22 August 2011 (EDT)

AAII

[edit]

Are you sure you have not misspelled "Emirate 'Xarron' Spacebridge Nexus" and "Zetca-" (the latter over at "Serpentor") and could you improve "Quartex (region)"? It's an ugly and confusing page right now. Geewunling 03:28, 23 August 2011 (EDT)

Those are spelled as such in the AAII. I'll go off and fix Quartex. —Interrobang 03:33, 23 August 2011 (EDT)

My apology.

[edit]

I apologize for attempting to be a part of this wiki community and attempting to add my meager contribution.

Shall log off for the last time shortly.

Micron Densetsu titles

[edit]

You realize there are English parts of the Japanese episode titles for the series, right? All of which are lower case, and not all of which line up with the actual dub titles?

Example

--Monzo 11:08, 31 August 2011 (EDT)

The only one that doesn't match (aside from parsing variations) is "First Encounter". That aside, they're only providing the English titles to a Japanese audience; I don't consider them part of the actual Japanese title and the Japanese sources I've seen don't. —Interrobang 11:32, 31 August 2011 (EDT)

Japanese Beast Era screencaps

[edit]

We have a lot of BWII and BWN screencaps of which the episode is unknown. Since you are sorting out the Japanese BE stuff, do you think you could get them properly sourced? Most are currently in the "Hastak images" category, but I could get them to the "images from unknown sources" category to save you the time finding them in the other category. Geewunling 02:43, 9 September 2011 (EDT)

Sure, I'll see what I can identify. Toss them into unknown sources or list them here. —Interrobang 02:51, 9 September 2011 (EDT)

Manga question

[edit]

I want to write an article for the Go-Bots manga later today and I have two questions. The stories are all very simple and can often be described in one or two sentences. Yet, there's a lot of stories. Should I put up a a page for each one or put them all in one article? Also, the manga issues aren't numbered and some appear to have been released at the same time. Should I order them alphabetically or would there be a better option? Geewunling 02:56, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

My gut instinct would be to give an article to every installment; it's easier to give space for featured characters and the infobox that way, instead of clumping them all into one page. Also easier to storylink. In regards to order, I think release date and then alphabetical is fine, if they have no other identifying marks. Were the toys numbered? —Interrobang 03:03, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
Seems they were according to the Go-Bots fansite. Ordering by those numbers seems a much better idea, so I'll go with that. Thanks. Oh, and perhaps to prevent pages being put up on the wrong "title", what do you think of translating "かつやく" as "service"? Geewunling 03:13, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
I need to know the context of the word before I can give any suggestions. —Interrobang 03:21, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
Oh, they're on the fansite. Yeah, "service" seems the most appropriate. —Interrobang 03:27, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

Beast manga

[edit]

So do you have access to the Beast Wars II and Neo manga? Because that's the sort of thing I'd be interested in! - Chris McFeely 12:07, 22 September 2011 (EDT)

Yes. I'm planning to scan it. It will probably come out bad, but we'll see. —Interrobang 12:28, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
*flails arms* Whence did you acquire such a thing? What of Beast Wars Metals? - Chris McFeely 12:38, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
I bought the collected volumes from some guy in Japan on eBay. They were pretty expensive, but eh. Unfortunately, BWM wasn't collected, so if I want it, I have to hunt down the individual Comic Bom Bom issues, which won't be easy. —Interrobang 12:40, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
Oh, I think I saw them on eBay at one point and thought about them myself! Good on yer! - Chris McFeely 12:43, 22 September 2011 (EDT)
Hello, I'd like to thanks for those Beast Wars manga as they are much more useful than my memory! ;-D --TX55TALK 15:07, 25 September 2011 (EDT)
You're welcome! —Interrobang 15:08, 25 September 2011 (EDT)

Double the pages

[edit]

Mine from March. Choose which one to keep you may. Geewunling 01:10, 4 October 2011 (EDT)

Dubbing vs localization

[edit]

All the recent episodes have that because they were all added by the same newbie anon. It's a foreign dub, I checked it. --Detour 15:52, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Yes, but he was following precedent set elsewhere. "Localization" is used because not all foreign versions are dubs, like the sub-only English releases of Japanese series. —Interrobang 16:49, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
So do we use "localization" as the new standard now? Or is this a case by case basis? --Detour 18:25, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
It's certainly easier having a consistent "Foreign localization" section. —Interrobang 18:44, 11 October 2011 (EDT)
I'll keep that in mind next time I tackle one of those, thanks! --Detour 18:46, 11 October 2011 (EDT)

Bot

[edit]

Bot to fix redirects is working again.
This took 5 hours. (Apparently we added more login security in response to Assaulthead.)
...I assume you wish to queue some up. -Derik 19:26, 20 October 2011 (EDT)

Hurm. Well, there's a lot. All of the "Transformers: " moves, for instance. [2] If you want me to compile a more specific list, let me know. —Interrobang 19:34, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
It's been down for over a year. Should I just set it on whatever has the most redirects? -Derik 20:24, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
Sure, I guess. —Interrobang 20:25, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
Hrm. Apparently the redirects page doesn't list them by how many links there are to a redirect.
Anyway, I've got about 1,100 linkfixes queued up. (As always, it won't deign to do all of them.) This should take about 24 hours for the 'bot to chew through. I figure you can redirect me after that's done. -Derik 21:48, 20 October 2011 (EDT)
I've got ~3000 redirect-changes queued up RE: the list you left on my talk page.
One thing the 'bot DOESN'T do is fix links passed as parameters in templates. This didn't USED to be a big deal, but TFWiki.net has seriously increased its usage of templates in the last 2 years or so. I'm going ot take a whack at it tonight and see if I can make it do this.
(The concern is that if a non-link value in a complex template, e.g. 'idw' were the same as a link being fixed, it could screw things up. But we've kept such template values decapitalized and all of these links are capitalized, so I'm hopeful this can be done without mangling pages.) -Derik 12:37, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

Wholesale removing shit again.

[edit]

Is this actually something that was decided upon in some talk page somewhere, or are you merely being yourself again? --ItsWalky 20:25, 26 October 2011 (EDT)

Sorry to upset you with the removal of a redundant template from ten or so lists? —Interrobang 00:50, 28 October 2011 (EDT)
Well, yes, those tags WERE redundant, but only after you created new sections that meant the same thing as the tags you were removing. --ItsWalky 12:13, 30 October 2011 (EDT)
There were plenty of "Cancelled" sections already on some pages, though. —Interrobang 12:20, 30 October 2011 (EDT)

SG Side Burn photo

[edit]

I made you do that, didn't I? --218.208.97.226 15:42, 1 November 2011 (EDT)

...Maybe. —Interrobang 15:43, 1 November 2011 (EDT)

Deathbringer

[edit]

Since you're on an IDW kick, can you separate out the IDW Deathbringer from the Marvel one? They've never struck me as having any similarities beyond sharing a name, but I don't own all of Devastation. --Monzo 02:22, 13 December 2011 (EST)

Now that you bring it up, I agree. Spotlight: Sixshot has a pretty specific description of IDW Deathbringer ("bio-mech bred for combat in the harshest of environments") that doesn't line up with Marvel Deathbringer. —Interrobang 02:26, 13 December 2011 (EST)
Hrm. Now that I think about it, does the Deathbringer of Cybertronian myth warrant its own page as well, a la Megatron? --Monzo 03:24, 13 December 2011 (EST)
I don't really agree with the existence of Megatron (myth), since it's obviously a prescient reference to BW Megatron. Ditto for myth Deathbringer. —Interrobang 10:54, 13 December 2011 (EST)
Would you say Megatron (myth) should probably be merged with Megatronus? -Derik 13:33, 16 December 2011 (EST)
I'm of the opinion that it referred specifically to Megatron (BW). Megatron naming himself after himself was the joke. —Interrobang 13:37, 16 December 2011 (EST)

All Roads Lead to Skynet

[edit]

I have become convinced you are not human, but instead a Sufficiently Advanced Artificial Intelligence who is now spidering Transformers lore and cross-indexing it like Google for some as-yet-unknown sinister reason.

Good work. -Derik 03:37, 16 December 2011 (EST)

Image

[edit]

why do you delete all my imagesShockwave1704 16:43, 13 March 2012 (EDT)

I didn't delete them. That decision is ultimately up to an administrator. I simply tagged them, because they are not useful to the Wiki. We do not host images we do not need. —Interrobang 17:11, 13 March 2012 (EDT)

ah ok i thought scalpel's image could have been useful--Shockwave1704 17:18, 13 March 2012 (EDT)

excuse me can you delete this file

Please stop uploading images. —Interrobang 16:48, 15 March 2012 (EDT)

yes sorry, I committed a terrible mistake --Shockwave1704 16:51, 15 March 2012 (EDT)

Wrong argument

[edit]

The point of the Cat:IDW... issues was to line all the categories for MTMTE/RiD up so that they were together in Special:Categories, rather than scattering them. Since there are covers for DWMTMTE/etc, there DOES need to be a Category:IDW More than Meets the Eye covers. - Mammalian Verisimilitude 13:48, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

An alphabetic list of categories in some obscure corner of the Wiki is not really something to consider when editing. —Interrobang 14:09, 20 March 2012 (EDT)

I'm sorry

[edit]

I was trying to do my part to edit like you said.

Yes, and I appreciate your enthusiasm, but you shouldn't edit for the sake of editing. What we need is expansion of actual content, such as toy write-ups and biographies, not reaching and excessive notes. —Interrobang 02:08, 28 March 2012 (EDT)

I've got an idea.

[edit]

Don't remove shit. --ItsWalky 15:37, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

I'm not sure how reverting an anon edit and asking for confirmation warrants this treatment, especially of somebody who has added an assload of Japanese names himself. —Interrobang 16:57, 15 April 2012 (EDT)
Don't revert anon edits just because they're anon edits. That should not be your default action. --ItsWalky 17:19, 15 April 2012 (EDT)
Yeah, I think you're just looking for a reason to yell at me. I didn't trust an edit for a variety of reasons and asked for confirmation or a source, as is pretty standard on any wiki. I got one. End of story. —Interrobang 17:53, 15 April 2012 (EDT)
The standard procedure on a wiki is not to remove FIRST and THEN ask for confirmation or source. It's the other way around, dude. Don't do this again. --ItsWalky 19:47, 15 April 2012 (EDT)

You do realize that other contributors ask me all the time why the hell you still get to post here because of your attitude and because of the stuff we often have to clean up from the widespread changes you decide to make on your own whims. And I shrug and say, "Hey, look, sometimes he does stuff we don't have to clean up. Often, yes, he's a pain. But he often does good things, so he's still worth keeping around, okay?" Protip: By starting edit wars with me, you are really pushing the one guy who stands in the way between you and a ban. It is not smart. It is very not smart. --ItsWalky 19:49, 17 April 2012 (EDT)

But I wasn't reverting anything you did? —Interrobang 20:00, 17 April 2012 (EDT)

Convoy

[edit]

Hey, if you're taking screencaps of Convoy, any chance you could get a picture of one of the cars they use for the MECH page? --abates 00:43, 24 April 2012 (EDT)

Sure. I can't get a good 3/4 shot, so I've taken a couple of screencaps so you can pick which one you like best. [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] (Apologies for the terrible artifacing in some caps. Convoy suffers a lot from it.) —Interrobang 00:57, 24 April 2012 (EDT)
Thanks! --abates 01:34, 24 April 2012 (EDT)

Emirate

[edit]

That was a little uncalled for, wasn't it? Fair enough if it had been an addition to the page itself, but when the word's being used in such an odd fashion, and Furman has a bit of a record for malapropisms ('indigent' for 'indigenous'), it seemed reasonable to raise the idea on the talk page just to see whether anyone thought there might be mileage in it. Reverting the talk page seems rather an overzealous response. -- Tribimat 20:58, 28 April 2012 (EDT)

Never mind, it doesn't matter. I'm wondering now how much evidence there is for it being a title at all, as opposed to just being the first element in a two-word name a la Optimus Prime. If it's a name rather than a title, it's a little less odd. -- Tribimat 21:52, 28 April 2012 (EDT)

Forign names

[edit]

If the Japanese/Italian/German/Floogan name for something is the same as the English name, DON'T FUCKING PUT IT IN THE FOREIGN NAMES LIST. The last thing we need is a long list on every page showing all the places UltraGenericBlast is called UltraGenericBlast. --FortMax 00:01, 4 May 2012 (EDT)

Marvel US/UK split point

[edit]

Hi there! I saw you added the part about US/UK split happening around the US issue “the price of life”, and while I generally agree, don’t you think the actual split point is the issue “Back from the dead”? In this issue Prime is surprised that Megatron is alive, where in the UK continuity they just recently fought in the time wars. Anyway, happy to hear your opinion :) Levyshahar (talk) 15:05, 10 October 2022 (EDT)

You're not likely to get a response from Interrobang, as he hasn't been active on here in ten years. --Sabrblade (talk) 18:55, 10 October 2022 (EDT)
