: Magnus hammer isn't really a proper noun, while Stormbringer is.  It's a real name, which defaults over less proper nouns.  It's why the clones which have names are at their respective names, rather than their clone names.  --[[User:ItsWalky|ItsWalky]] 17:30, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

Why isn't this at Magnus Hammer? I thought "fiction overrides toys", and it was referred to as the Magnus Hammer in-toon... - SanityOrMadness 17:28, 9 May 2009 (EDT)

Magnus hammer isn't really a proper noun, while Stormbringer is. It's a real name, which defaults over less proper nouns. It's why the clones which have names are at their respective names, rather than their clone names. --ItsWalky 17:30, 9 May 2009 (EDT)
It's capitalized everywhere in the article. That means it's a proper noun, no? Otherwise, it's be called the "magnus hammer", not "Magnus Hammer". Does anyone actually ever refer to "Liar Starscream" or "Egomaniac Starscream" in the toon? --Crockalley 14:13, 16 May 2009 (EDT)
