creating pages
I am trying to upload images and create Transformers articles that haven't being created. I'm only trying to help and if Wikipedia won't let me kep the pages, I'll just have to do work by somewhere else. Links100 (talk) 23:28, 26 August 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Slingshot-toy.jpg
 Thanks for uploading File:Slingshot-toy.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Vivio Testa rossa  Talk 02:57, 28 August 2011 (UTC)

Removing comments from DRV
Could you please explain why you did this? You removed my arguments and another from a separate DRV. This is flagrant removal of content, and you ought to know this is inappropriate. I will be noting your editing behavior at the DRV. I, Jethrobot drop me a line (note: not a bot!) 23:29, 28 August 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think this was deliberate. If it was, he would probably have removed Black Kite's comment entirely rather than reverting to a previous version. My guess is that MI was looking at previous revisions of the page and forgot to return to the latest version before hitting "edit". Reyk  YO!  00:39, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

WikiProject Transformers
Now that all of the Transformers articles have been assessed for quality and importance, and all of the images have been added to the wikiproject, I would like to impress again the significance of maintaining the status of Transformers articles on Wikipedia with Version 1.0.


 * When creating new articles, please remember to add it to WikiProject Transformers, by adding the template   to the talk page of the article. The quality class for most articles with very little information should equal "Stub" (pretty much any article 4000 bytes or less). If an article has an infobox with an image, and at least a couple paragraphs of information, it can be considered "Start" class. The importance class for new articles should almost always equal "Low", since most articles need further development over time, in order to increase in importance.


 * If the article is a stub, the template Transformers-stub should also be added to the bottom of the article. The number of Stub-Class Transformers articles should equal the number of Transformers stubs. Please be sure to update the article’s classification on the talk page, if the stub tag is removed.


 * If an article is merged or deleted, please updated the quality class on the corresponding talk page to equal "Redirect".


 * Please also consider adding additional templates to talk pages, for articles that fall into more than one category: (e.g. WikiProject Animation, WikiProject Comics, WikiProject Toys, WikiProject Video games, WikiProject Fictional characters or WikiProject Film). These templates increase the coverage of Transformers articles on Wikipedia, and make them more likely to be expanded by other editors.


 * Also, when adding images to articles, please be sure to add the image to Category:Transformers images. The image file should also be added to the WikiProject, by adding the template   to the talk page of the file. Again, the number of File-Class Transformers articles should equal the number of Transformers images.


 * Please also consider adding additional templates to the talk page, for images that fall into more than one category: (e.g. WikiProject Animation, WikiProject Comics, WikiProject Toys, or WikiProject Video games).

You can see all of the articles broken down by quality and importance on the statistics table, and there is a log of everything that has been updated here, which is maintained by the WP 1.0 bot. I hope that you will see the significance of these quality and importance guides, and how they help to improve the coverage of Transformers articles on Wikipedia. Thank you for your time and cooperation. Fortdj33 (talk) 13:42, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Transformers Cybertron Barricade
First of all, I tried to look up Transformers Cybertron Barricade on Google. It seems that there isn't one. I swear I have a toy I collected called Transformers Cybertron Barricade (I'm not lying)!

Non-free rationale for File:Omegaprime.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Omegaprime.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' 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 "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page.

You were absolutely correct to notice something was wrong with the plot. An earlier editor had unilaterally gutted it even though it was well within the 700-word limit of WP:FILM. I've restored the longer version. Good eye. --Tenebrae (talk) 22:31, 18 November 2011 (UTC)

Transformers IDW
Hello there. I wanted to ask you a favor. I saw you did some plot-writting for some of the Transformers articles, so I was wondering if you could update the plot for the article The Transformers (IDW Publishing). I would like to say that I have been following and updating the page for the last year or so. And, although I have done much to update the article, it lacks one major thing. The large part of the plot/storyline of the comic. So if you are familiar with the IDW storyline, please write the plot for the article, because I am not realy good at story telling even though I have read them all. It has not been updated for the last year and a half because the editor who took charge of that, and did it realy thoroughly, seems to have left Wikipedia. He stopped the plot at All Hail Megatron issue 11. Thank you for your reply in advance. Plastelin (talk) 05:53, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

Non-free rationale for File:Ramhorn-animated.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Ramhorn-animated.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under non-free content criteria, but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia is acceptable. Please go to the file description page, and edit it to include a non-free rationale.

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified the non-free rationale on those pages too.

Wanted to say
I just wanted to say that Dan Murphy's post completely ignored the point you were making and a completely valid point it was as well, IMO. See, the base response when confronted with a valid supporting fact about Wikipedia is to insult the messenger and otherwise ignore the fact entirely. Because to acknowledge it would be to acknowledge that they're not completely morally in the right, as they think they are in their own heads. Silver seren C 11:23, 17 August 2012 (UTC)
