Article title issues aside, "Anonymous Maximus" is ''the best name ever'' for the fourth combiner. I've sort of toyed with making a page for him from time to time, but I could never think of anything better to call it that "Superion's brother." - [[User:Chris McFeely|Chris McFeely]] 12:29, 14 June 2008 (UTC) | Article title issues aside, "Anonymous Maximus" is ''the best name ever'' for the fourth combiner.

I am baffled by this article's title. --KilMichaelMcC 11:25, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Did I get the wrong Michaelangelo painting? Which is the circular one? (I've seen it in person, i just don't remember where.) -Derik 11:30, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- *facepalm*
- No, Derik, I am baffled as to why it would even occur to you to give this article such a name instead of "Super energon temple" or some such thing. --KilMichaelMcC 11:35, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- ...does it get named in a later episode? I just thought the mural was, by far, the more memorable defining characteristic. Although, I suppose that would at least make the title descriptive, not a simile...
- Uh, so you want me to move it? ;) -Derik 11:38, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- I don't remember if it ever gets a name, or description good enough to use as a title. But it should be pretty obvious that titling the article "Sistine Chapel" (which you misspelled, BTW) is not appropriate, as anyone coming across that in a category would assume that to be an aritcle about, you know, the actual place and not a location on UT Cybertron. --KilMichaelMcC 11:43, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
