[edit] Transformers: Generation 1 vs. Original Series
The name Transformers: Generation 1 is the accepted form on the Transformers Wiki Project. Before you start changing it in all their articles, you should propose such a change on their page and let the members decide. There are hundreds of articles that say G1, and one person changing it now would be inconsistant. You should propose it as a change and see if the other member s of the project agree or not. user:mathewignash
- Unfortantly we have no better name to go on, but The Original Series is the best that we have --The Matrix Prime
[edit] Cybertron Transformers - Jungle Planet Transmetals
A refer you to the quote from Scourge's tech specs "Cold, distant, and prone to violent rage against those he views as lesser creatures, he holds most of the Jungle Planet firmly in his transmetal claw." Thus my reasoning that Jungle Planet Transformers are Transmetals. user:mathewignash
- Refering to these units as "robotic" or "mechanical" is the accepted form on the Transformers Wiki Project.

[edit] Magmatron
Yes I did read the version of your edit where you rewrote the tech spec data. However, they were still far too similar to his original tech spec cards. It would take too long to upload the image so Ill settle for a link to a page with the data [1]. As you can see, the only real changes are the removal of one sentence, a few more reorganized sentences and a few grammatical changes [2]. Look, I'm not trying to get into a fight with you. I know you're just trying to improve the articles: so am I, and I don't believe tech spec data should be removed altogether. However, all tech specs are still copyrighted by Hasbro, and as such are unusable, as Centrx noted above. If we rewrite them fully, still getting the same points across in different language, we still get the information across without causing a copyvio, as shown here [3]. I hope we can find a way to work together in future. Best Regards. SMegatron 20:35, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
Ah, I think we've misunderstood each other. The version of the page now is perfectly fine. However, as I said, it was the original rewrite I objected to. I rewrote that one because it was still too similar to the original tech spec. However, it looks fine now, and I have no further objections. I wasn't redoing your changes out of pettiness - its just that copyrighted tech specs, Marvel Universe bios, Dreamwave MTMTE bios, etc are unusable under the terms of wikipedia's copyright terms[4]. Because of the sheer number of them on pages, several, including Arcee and Scourge, have been reverted to a state before the specs were added in - thus losing everything else too. They were only restored after the bios were removed. At one point Red Alert was even deleted entirely because of it - the current version was restored by Mathewignash after removing all the bios. So, in order to prevent this from happening further, I try to remove them whenever I see them. Nothing personal, its just trying to make the articles look better. Anyway, I hope that clears things up between us. Best Regards.SMegatron 10:18, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
- This matter has been closed --The Matrix Prime
[edit] Primes
I realise Im probably butting my nose in where it doesn't belong, however I couldn't help but notice the problem between you and Mat over the Prime's page. Your proposal to rename the page on Mat's talk sounds like a good idea: however I don't think thats accurate either. Its a tad ambiguous to say the least to call the catergory Primes/Primals, as a few characters don't fit either description (in fact I removed it from Hot Rod earlier today, as I didn't understand the purpose). Perhaps moving it to Primes and associated characters would help? I realise its clunky but it would probably better decribe it. Anyway, regards.SMegatron 20:26, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

- Not at all, if anyone has any constructive criticism or relevant things to say I welcome them. I have been worried about the ambiguous of the category name myself as you noticed. “Primes and Associated Characters” might help that, or maybe “Prime Family” or “Primes and Linked Characters". --The Matrix Prime 01:25, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
I rather like the latter of those options myself. Regards.SMegatron 08:14, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Then it's a toss up between "Primes and Linked Characters" or "Characters Associated with Prime" (which is a better phrased verison of the first suggestion.) Which do you think is better? --The Matrix Prime 15:40, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
As you're the category's originator, I'll leave it up to you. I have to admit I think the first is more direct and to the point. Regards.SMegatron 18:29, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
- Okay --The Matrix Prime
[edit] Onyx Primal
Hey there. As you've obviously put quite a lot of time and effort into it, I thought I'd give you a heads up that I have just given Onyx Primal a bit of a cleanup. I've removed and reworded the tech spec stuff , added detail of the Botcon play he appeared in and added the usual "fictional character" intro. Anyway, look it over and give me a shout if you think anything needs changed. Regards.SMegatron 10:42, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
- Appreciate the heads up, looks great. I just tweaked the template a little inorder to get that color bar in. --The Matrix Prime 20:06, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Black Cat
I'm afraid your repeated claim that the Black Cat is an obvious homage to Catwoman has no basis.
CBR: "When you created the Black Cat to be Spider-Man’s new girl friend, was it linked to a desire to write stuff about Catwoman or was it only an homage?"
Marv: I didn’t plan Black Cat to be in Spidey. I created her for Spider-Woman (look at the letter column of the first B.C. story and you’ll see). I then decided to leave Spider-Woman and moved her over. So, I never even thought of Catwoman when I did her. I got the idea for her from a Tex Avery cartoon, Bad Luck Blackie.
Felicia Hardy's signature costume, cat burglar profession, and her steady relationship to Spider-man predates Selina Kyle's similar depiction in comics by almost a decade. Catwoman spent most of her comic life as a purple dressed female super villian who used big cats to commit anything but subtle crimes. Selina Kyle's current incarnation as a black suited cat burglar with romantic ties to Batman didn't occur until 1987 with Frank Miller's classic Batman: Year One.
I'm not certain if you are a Catwoman fan or are simply adding false material. I appreciate your interest in the character and we can easily take this to arbitration if you'd like.
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Allops.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Allops.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

[edit] Tau Empire revision
Hi there,
I just reverted a lot of your changes to the Tau Empire article. While I appreciate the intent, Games Workshop products utilise British spelling variants and so it is not appropriate to change the article to reflect American ones. However I kept a lot of your corrections and capitalisations and thankyou for that.
Also I kept the use of the word "evolution" as it is appropriate for this. I do not see any reason why you would have removed each instance of the word, so please feel free to discuss.
Cheers, Tim

- Princess Leia Organa. I've listed this article for peer review because it right now seems oddly cluttered and, despite a lot of references as of now, lacks reliable source citations. Although I've already requested another peer review, as long as it helps the articles get better, I've got the time. Comments and suggestions are appreciated, as this should help me in expanding other Star Wars-centric articles.
If you have the time, it'd be great if you could look over that article and assess their strengths and weaknesses. Thanks, and, again, a Happy New Year to you! — Cinemaniac (talk • contribs) 18:43, 4 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Wulsinus (Heroscape)
Another editor has added the {{prod}} template to the article Wulsinus (Heroscape), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the editor doesn't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and has explained why in the article (see also Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not and Wikipedia:Notability). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia or discuss the relevant issues at its talk page. If you remove the {{prod}} template, the article will not be deleted, but note that it may still be sent to Wikipedia:Articles for deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Magmatron Beast Modes.JPG
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Magmatron Beast Modes.JPG. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Ricky81682 (talk) 09:20, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Image source problem with Image:Comics Airraptor.JPG
Thanks for uploading Image:Comics Airraptor.JPG. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, please add a proper copyright licensing tag if the file doesn't have one already. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the image is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the image will be deleted 48 hours after 14:38, 8 March 2008 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Rossrs (talk) 14:38, 8 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Wulsinus (Heroscape)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Wulsinus (Heroscape), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. If you agree with the deletion of the article, and you are the only person who has made substantial edits to the page, please add {{db-author}} to the top of Wulsinus (Heroscape).
