Like the Marvel and DC, Transformers fiction is filled with many continuities/timelines/universes.

While it is clear that Generation One Optimus Prime and the Optimus Prime in the Unicron Trilogy are different characters and thus have been given their own pages on this wiki for years, I still feel their pages are too long by including Cartoon and Marvel Comics stuff on the same page.

Now both Hasbro and TakaraTomy have acknowledged that there are different universes in their Ask Vector Prime Facebook posts and All Spark Almanacs and have given them the following names:
 * Primax
 * Basically every variation G1, G2, Beast Wars and almost everything you can think of that is related to them.


 * Aurex
 * Unicron Trilogy


 * Uniend
 * The Aligned Continuity

And many others

My Proposal
For names used by characters only in cluster they will be named like / and will be a master page. Example: Fortress Maximus will be the master page. Fortress Maximus/Primax 984.17 Alpha will be the page for Fortress Maximus as he appears in The Transformers cartoon and Fortess Maximus/Primax 209.0 Gamma will be the page for Fortress Maximus as he appears in Beast Wars: Uprising.

For name used by characters across different clusters, they will be named as such: / with being the master page and being a redirect to a disambiguation page. Example: Optimus Prime (Primax) will be a master page for the character represented by the original G1 Toy. Optimus Prime (Primax)/984.17 Alpha will be the page for Optimus Prime in The Transformers cartoon and Optimus Prime (Primax)/984.0 Gamma will be the page for Optimus Prime in the U.S. Marvel comics. Optimus Prime (Primax)/Toys will list all the toys and will be written from an out of universe perspective using the toyline titles rather than universal stream designations.

Optimus Prime (Aurex) will be a different master page for the variations of Unicron Trilogy Optimus Prime. Optimus Prime (Aurex)/802.23 Alpha will be the page for Optimus Prime in Armada, Energon and Cybertron television series. Optimus Prime (Aurex)/103.10 Alpha will be the page for Convoy in Micron Legend and Super Link. The page itself will refer to the character as Convoy, not Optimus Prime.

"Multiversal Constants"
Yes, Primus in Galaxy Force is actually the same character as Marvel Comics Primus. I believe we should just deal with Multiversal Constants as if they were separate characters with a master page for each cluster. They will be named as such: / with being the master page and basically being a more detailed disambiguation page explaining that the character is a multiversal constant, common attributes they have and any events that involve crossing multiple universal streams.

Example: Primus is a main page and it will explain that he is a multiversal constant and the common attributes he has include being a Transfomer deity or having Cybertron as a body. It will have a list of his incarnation s in the different clusters.

Primus (Primax) will be a master page. Primus (Primax)/785.06 Alpha will be the page for Primus/Oracle/Vector Sigma in Fight! Super Robot Lifeform Transformers and Primus (Primax)/984.20 Gamma will be the page for Primus in the U.K. Marvel comics.
