I don't even know WHAT to put down as for Category/Default Sort. "TRANSFORMERS ALLSPARK" like the title? "Transformers Allspark" because it's easier? --Lonegamer78 00:13, 31 October 2012 (EDT)

Author details

On the title page for chapter 2, alongside Tsushima and Sayuri, TakTom's labeled as "Collaborators" (alongside "Original Work"). Put them down as "editor" or "story consultants"? --Lonegamer78 03:24, 31 October 2012 (EDT)

I think add collaborators to the comicstory template. --abates 03:59, 31 October 2012 (EDT)
That'd work. --Lonegamer78 04:09, 31 October 2012 (EDT)

Two questions

  1. Why the ALLCAPS? Japanese media does it all the time, but the wiki never followed that. American companies also frequently do it to indicate their property, and we also don't pay attention to that.
  2. Why "Spike (ALL SPARK)"? Is there something that makes him absolutely not just a variation of G1 Spike? Mimi 18:15, 2 February 2013 (EST)
To your first question, partly because I couldn't decide whether to go with just "Transformers All Spark", "Transformers: All Spark", or something else. The all-caps was just the easiest, although it might be changed later on. On the second question, while "All Spark" is pretty much advertised as a retelling of the G1 cartoon, it's barely four (well, five) chapters in and a touch too early to tell. Spike here hasn't spoken/shown much yet, and I'd be jumping to conclusion if I outright put him as "Spike Witwicky (G1)". Plus, the author, Naoto, hasn't given his surname yet either. --Lonegamer78 19:00, 2 February 2013 (EST)
