Talk:Revenge (G1)

This article is painful in how wrong the formatting is. I also don't like the name - was the ship ever given a name in any fiction or production material? --FFN 02:11, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

On ATT, it seems to be consistently called the "Decepticon mothership". No idea whether anybody actually calls it that in a canon resource, though. - RolonBolon 03:52, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Galvatron calls it "the mothership" in Rebirth. --KilMichaelMcC 12:27, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Doesn't it also get called the "flagship" at some point? I could be confusing that with the Autobot flagship in Dark Awakening, though. - Jackpot 21:33, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Maybe the title should be changed to Galvatron's Mothership.

I would suggest simply "Mothership" myself, although that may be a bit vague. --KilMichaelMcC 15:48, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

You see this cat Galvatron's ship is a bad mother- -LV 21:30, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

"Decepticon Mothership" sounds best to me. Well, actually, "Decepticon Flagship" sounds super-best to me, but I can't remember where I heard that (if at all), so it doesn't count. Yet. - Jackpot 21:36, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I'd be shocked to learn Japan didn't give this thing a proper noun name. --M Sipher 22:35, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Maybe it's the Galvaburg I! -LV 22:45, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

Floro Dery's site calls it the "Decepticon spaceship". Perhaps we should combine and call it the Decepticon Mothership? Like Jackpot, I prefer "Decepticon Flagship", but since it was never called that, we can't use it. What do you guys think? --FFN 03:31, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

So, have we decided on a name for this ship yet? Galvatron's ship is really more of a description, and to my knowledge, was never referred to as such in fiction. I really hate 'Galvatron's ship'. --FFN 16:56, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

But a description is all we have. We can't just make up a name. --ItsWalky 16:57, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

What about "mothership," mentioned above? That WAS used in the fiction, and it sounds a little better than just "ship." And keeping the "Galvatron's" or changing it to "Decepticon" would still be a useful clarification. - Jackpot 18:53, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I vote for "the mothership" because of the myriad caption possibilities opened thereby. -LV 18:57, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I think "the mothership" is too vague. "Galvatron's mothership" would be acceptable to me. --Steve-o 19:14, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

I'm sick of your cold calculations. -LV 19:18, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

DECEPTICON MOTHERSHIP! --FFN 20:02, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

"Decepticon mothership" is even LESS descriptive than "Galvatron's mothership". The whole problem is that the ship doesn't have a name and that makes it hard to talk about. Thus, making our "name" for it less specific is a bad idea. --Steve-o 20:15, 23 May 2007 (UTC)

"Decepticons, return to the mothership!" - Galvy, Rebirth p1 (as jackpot said, Mothership has to be in there somewhere.) -Derik 08:35, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Also, i want to point out aht during Rebirth? The decepticons board through the jet exhaust port- that then fires up in the next shot. (this is hilarious, as is much of rebirth.) -Derik 08:36, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Haha, I forgot about that. Didn't the Autobot shuttle fly down the manhole that we saw Scourge and co use earlier? --FFN 15:45, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

There's a precedent for that. Sometimes Autobots enter All-Terrain Turbo-Transports through a door in the VTOL-jetted airstream. --ItsWalky 15:56, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

Page title

What wiki guidelines cause us to capitalize improper nouns? -Derik 20:20, 21 May 2007 (UTC)

Naming

Hey wait. Isn't this article should be named The Revenge?(Dr L 22:46, 9 October 2009 (EDT))

Also, what's the source for it being named the Revenge? -- Dark T Zeratul 23:21, 9 October 2009 (EDT)

The Source of the ship being named The Revenge is all Transformers Comics, Books, Cartoon Series and every Transformers related materials you could find.(Dr L 18:01, 10 October 2009 (EDT))

You need to be a little more specific. -- SFH 18:07, 10 October 2009 (EDT)

I have never once heard the ship referred to as the Revenge. Give a source User:Eire 23.12 Oct 10 09 (UTC)

Read this sentence: The Revenge is a mighty warship granted to Galvatron by Unicron. It has a pretty good success rate of blowing up Autobot shuttles. (Dr L 18:35, 10 October 2009 (EDT))
