Hi, I removed that pic of the towtruck you uploaded onto Longarm's page, because the file size was far too large (the wiki software warns you when you upload a filesize over its recommended limits) and since there is no information as to where it comes from (TFW2005 is not the source in this case), I don't know of the legality of using it here. --FFN 14:39, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

Picture cropped and reuploaded! --ItsWalky 14:42, 18 August 2007 (UTC)
Thank you a lot for your efforts !! :) --TX55 15:17, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

About the Translation of Episodes titles of Japanese Transformers

I wonder these translated titles of The Headmasters and Super-God Masterforce is official or unofficial? Because some of them are a little bit strange. For example,

This should be translated into "The Chosen Hero - His Name is Ginrai" instead of "A Hero is Chosen - His Name is Ginrai".
This should be translated into "A Fierce Battle!! The Cybertrons are in Danger" instead of "A Fierce Battle!! The Cybertrons are in Trouble".

and several others. Well, I am just a little bit curious. --TX55 11:10, September 12 2007 (UTC)

Well, those examples are a bit "six of one." Neither one would especially seem to be more accurate than the other. The translations employed for the wiki (at least in the case of Masterforce and when I come to it, Victory) are those used on the official R2 DVD releases, as translated by Jordan Derber. The only time I've changed any of them is when the English hasn't been parsed the same as the Japanese (compare "Terror! The Decepticons' Manhunt" with the DVD's "The Decepticons' Terrifying Manhunt," which sounds better, but doesn't match the way the sentence is actually written in Japanese). - Chris McFeely (not signed in)
