Citing?
...why are we citing the script-consultant's notes on the Gathering? I mean- that sorta implies that like, he was a background generic or something, but the script says he's supposed to be there.
That's heinrad. He's right there. There's no mistaking him. -Derik 21:25, 6 November 2006 (UTC)
- Because his appearance is not outstandingly overt. It's just a brownish thing with a circle on his chest. I wasn't sure it was actually him until I read Ben Yee's comments. As I said with Dead End, the link to bwtf.com provides a little bit of insight into Heinrad's place in the IDW Beast Wars continuity. And I choose footnote because it's less disruptive than an italic note, and because it's reference, which is what footnotes are for. --Crockalley 04:22, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- I agree (eeek!) with Derik. There's no mistaking Heinrad in that panel for anything or anyone else. The clarification is entirely not needed. --ItsWalky 05:27, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
- Okay, but I still want to keep that link in there somewhere. Two sentences from bwtf.com::

Zoology lesson
In response to recent editing about the testicles:
Just curious, so I looked it up. Tanuki at Wikipedia refers the real animal as a Raccoon Dog. So I looked that up.
- "Its testicles are notably larger than those of other canids."
So I guess the folklore was inspired by reality. --Crockalley 20:51, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
