For this one, I would almost suggest going with the ridiculous TFTM trailer: DOES PRIME DIE?! (hint: yes.) -hx 03:54, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

What about Barricade's vehicle mode? -Derik 05:30, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

Additional Text?

Can we add one of those "addiitonal text" fields into this template? Preferably so said text shows up in large, easy-to-notice letters? A field so the thing can say "Spoilers for ____________ follow." Then maybe Rob won't have a heart attack.
Well, he will, because he's old, but at least it won't be caused by spoilers. --M Sipher 17:21, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Perhaps just work it into the text. For example it would read:
Have the usage syntax mirror template:storylink perhaps?--RosicrucianTalk 17:29, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
The Old Man approves. -- Repowers 18:50, 16 November 2007 (UTC)

Spoiler Policy

Since we're tweaking the spoiler tag, perhaps this would be a good opportunity to write an actual spoiler policy akin to the Caption policy page rather than linking to Wikipedia for this. Such an article would ideally go at Transformers Wiki:Spoiler.

As for what would go on such a page, I'll get the ball rolling with the following:

  • Spoiler tags are removed six months after publication/airtime/movie release.
  • Spoiler tags are not used on cartoon episode or comic issue pages. If you read the plot summaries on these articles you should not be surprised if you get spoiled.

Anything else that should go in there?--RosicrucianTalk 19:49, 16 November 2007 (UTC)
