So, uh.....should we have a "Decepticon Warlords" category now? ---Blackout- 14:53, 1 November 2010 (EDT)

Identifiers

A few characters from the WOH continuity are disambed with (Timelines) (Bishop, Thunderblast), others with (G1). Shouldn't it all be (Timelines), or at least the same? I know Crossblades and Stilletto have (BW) identifiers, which I don't get seeing as others like them get a (Timelines) label too. And otherwise, would (WOH) be an acceptable identifier?

Absolutely no to "(WOH)". —Interrobang 14:25, 17 December 2010 (EST)
And going by the "(TransTech)" and "(SG)" precedent, It would seem that we send most Timelines dudes to the franchise they "belong" to. But we're still not very consistent.
The exceptions are:
Bishop's problem is that there's already a G1 human named Bishop. So if we can't use "WOH", then... uh. Since he's not "Timelines", because he doesn't have a toy, and the magazine comics technically aren't Timelines fiction. --67.252.49.31 16:39, 17 December 2010 (EST)
I'm against "(WOH)" as a franchise identifier in place of "(G1)" or "(Timelines)", not as further disambiguation within a franchise. Seems to me that WOH Bishop could be "(Transformer)" and Dreamwave Bishop could be "(human)"; better parallel disambiguation tags. And yes, the comics not being Timelines is something to keep in consideration. —Interrobang 17:01, 17 December 2010 (EST)
I thought the reason for (TransTech) and (SG) was that TransTech and Shattered Glass are considered franchises/continuity families on their own within the continuity mix that is Timelines, and that therefore they can be used as identifiers in Timelines's stead, whereas other f/cf's are only for a very, very small portion part of Timelines. Due to the fact that we have a WOH continuity page, I wasn't entirely sure whether Wings of Honor was a subfrachise name (a la Kiss Players) or merely a useful way to identify an otherwise nameless G1 continuity with. In the first case, (WOH) would be the appropriate identifier, in the second (Timelines). Or at least, that's how I understand it. Geewunling 03:10, 18 December 2010 (EST)
So... should/can I move them all to (Timelines)? Geewunling 16:00, 20 December 2010 (EST)

Just adding to the mix, a character named Breakaway is mentioned in this story as well, the former owner of the Darklon. Since he's likely not either of the Movieverse Breakaway's or Classics Breakaway, would he go under (Timelines) as well? --Xaaron 14:02, 11 January 2011 (EST)

If no one has a real objection, I'd like to move the relevant pages to (Timelines). Geewunling 14:15, 19 January 2011 (EST)
