So I'm looking over the various storybook stuff that Steve-o has, and finding that we don't have much of it, and what we do have is pretty much lost in the void. We need to tie all this stuff together. The Franchise Navigation box should include some kind of link to it -- even if that means we have to split our current books page into four or five pieces, by franchise. Each series of books should have its own navigation chain, leading back to the publisher's page. So, something like this:Franchise nav box --> Books --> Publishers --> Individual titles Objections to the splitting-up-the-books page? (heck, it should be a category anyway, as opposed to a multi-franchise list.) -- Repowers 20:48, 4 December 2008 (EST)

Nope. Go for it. I've been thinking for a while that once you factor in all the Armada stuff... man, that's a lot of books. --M Sipher 04:55, 5 December 2008 (EST)

Move

As Thomas Jefferson once said, "Buggery is the Genus, of which Sodomy and Bestiality are the species."In that hierarchical mind, "Generation 1" isn't a franchise-- or at least not as we're treating it. It's an umbrella franchise, just like the Unicron Trilogy or the live-action film series. I think that, in the long term, it'll make our lives easier if our treatment reflects that. -DerikTalk 11:39, 11 February 2009 (EST)

  • Generation 1 (umbrella franchise)
  • The Transformers (franchise)
  • Headmasters
  • Masterforce
  • etc...
  • Generation 2
The Japanese stuff, certainly. All of the toys in those were sold with the plain "Transformers" label. G2, I'm not so sure, but if you feel so…. (What about Machine Wars?) —Interrobang 11:53, 11 February 2009 (EST)
