The nature of this article kinda bugs me. Is there a reason we're putting information about the Decepticon base under a "name" (more a description, really) that was used in only 3 episodes, rather than under the proper title (Decepticon Headquarters) that was used throughout the rest of the series? Seems to me this article ought to cover what happened to the space ship up until its crash; after that, it became part of Decepticon HQ. -- Repowers 21:44, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
- We did have a separate articles for the Ark and Autobot Headquarters, which was merged into Ark. I have a feeling that is also what would happen if we split these articles. -- SFH 21:58, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
- I was involved in that, heh. The difference is that the Ark appears in numerous continuities, with the cartoon version obviously being one of several iterations of it; by contrast the "Decepticon space cruiser" only exists in the cartoon. Also the cartoon shows clearly that the cruiser is only a small part of Decep HQ, which IIRC is a whole complex of buildings; that base/ship distinction is a lot less clear with Autobot HQ. -- Repowers 22:10, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
- IIRC, we're using the appellation 'Decepticon Space Cruiser' to distinguish this cruiser from the Nemesis. However-- in multiple continuities, the Undersea Decepticon Headquarters is the Nemesis, not this unrelated 2nd spacecruiser.
- I'd like to see this article split between Decepticon space cruiser and Undersea Decepticon Headquarters. Both the DSC and nemesis article can point 'into' the Undersea HQ article, as relevant. -Derik 22:52, 22 October 2007 (UTC)
