Also, the Wiki standard is that fiction summaries on character pages are in past tense (a review of the character's whole life, which has already occurred from the character's POV), while summaries on individual episode or comic issue pages are in present tense (always occurring in the present each time you watch or read).--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 04:09, 5 May 2008 (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> | Also, the Wiki standard is that fiction summaries on character pages are in past tense (a review of the character's whole life, which has already occurred from the character's POV), while summaries on individual episode or comic issue pages are in present tense (always occurring in the present each time you watch or read).--[[User:Apcog|Apcog]] 04:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC) | ||

Excuse me, but those characters appear in several series continuities so I thought it would be helpful to clearly show ''what'' continuities those sections are from. Also, Jackpot requested that we use 'Dreamwave Generation 1 comics continuity' due to the fact we also use the generic 'Dreamwave comics continuity' for Armada and Energon characters. I'm all for making it easier for the average visitor to figure things out, and not remove things because 'its obvious' or 'we all already know that' or 'there's a single line of text indicating this all the way on the top of the page'. --[[User:FFN|FFN]] 06:51, 24 May 2008 (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> | |||

Getting Tense
Also, the Wiki standard is that fiction summaries on character pages are in past tense (a review of the character's whole life, which has already occurred from the character's POV), while summaries on individual episode or comic issue pages are in present tense (always occurring in the present each time you watch or read).--Apcog 04:09, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Generation 1
Excuse me, but those characters appear in several series continuities so I thought it would be helpful to clearly show what continuities those sections are from. Also, Jackpot requested that we use 'Dreamwave Generation 1 comics continuity' due to the fact we also use the generic 'Dreamwave comics continuity' for Armada and Energon characters. I'm all for making it easier for the average visitor to figure things out, and not remove things because 'its obvious' or 'we all already know that' or 'there's a single line of text indicating this all the way on the top of the page'. --FFN 06:51, 24 May 2008 (UTC)
