Talk:Guardian Spirit

Pardon my irritation, but what, exactly, of this article was bullshit? The second paragraph speculating on what, if anything the spirit could be? The note that it seems ot lack the gravitas associated with religious dogma? The whole concept of the article-- documenting one of a handful of times Transformers displayed non-formalized supernatural beliefs?

I do not debate the judgment of our hopped-up-on-painkillers Admin... but I feel "This entire article is bullshit" fails to convey that wisdom in sufficiently useful detail. -Derik 19:57, 6 February 2011 (EST)

Prime's casual, off-hand usage of the term "guardian spirit" was clearly a common noun, having nothing to do with the fully-formed mythology you fabricated for it. --ItsWalky 20:25, 6 February 2011 (EST)

So... you'd prefer the article addressed it in a much more generic sense?

I have no objection to this. But it does represent a sort of casual superstition on the part of Transformers, and should probably be documented somewhere.

(Metatextually, its usage is consistent with that of Great Xal and the other Cybertronian Zodiac signs of the Cybertronian Zodiac as used in TAAII, but I feel no need to push that connection.)

Given my druthers, I'd probably move the examples-of-what-it's-not to a "see also" at the end, and basically re-render this as a 'type of superstition' article. Acceptable? -Derik 22:24, 6 February 2011 (EST)
