Yeah, tweaking the bio to make it based less on one continuity is all well and good, but can somebody who has read the Energon comics come up with something for Kicker? I don't read any of the TF comics, that's why I hardly ever mention them. --FFN 06:32, 24 December 2006 (UTC)

He was an afterthought in the comics. His only real scene is acting like a wuss when Mirage attacked. He is tossed out into the ocean per his annoyance and pulls a Jesus H. Christ, walking on water back to the scene of the battle.

Naming

Do we really want the page at "Chad "Kicker" Jones"? It seems kind of, uh, ugly. Are we going to move everybody who uses their nickname more than their first name? —Interrobang 07:49, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Hey, who moved the page? It was agreed in 2006 that the page be left as Kicker, since that's the name 95% of people who have any interest in Energon would know him by, and Chad Jones was only in the Dreamwave comic, which, by comparison to the cartoon, was positively obscure.
"Character articles about humans should use the human's full name if known. Characters with multiple names (as in the case of alter-egos) should have their article listed under their most prominent name, even if that means a human is listed under a code name instead of their real full name. For more detail on these complications, see Disambiguation." --FFN 15:09, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
