I decided like Bumblebee (Transformers Animated) that this article needs at the minimum needs a deletion. There is a lack of sufficient RELIABLE third person sources to justify a spin off Megatron article. Dwanyewest (talk) 20:18, 2 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Facetious question- if deletion is the minimum, what would be the maximum? What more could you possibly do to this article? Damnatio memoriae? Hehe. Seriously though, delete. We don't need or want multiple articles on the same fictional character based on appearing in different media or storylines. That is clearly in breach of WP:UNDUE.

Keep or merge to Megatron (other incarnations). Article is about a notable character and it has sources that can eb transfered. Mathewignash (talk) 02:31, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Merge all instances of Megatron into one article. Jclemens (talk) 02:53, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

One small point if the mergers are made we need to be careful with the Megatron (beast era) article since that is actually a different character who named himself after the original Megatron and not the same character in a different storyline.--76.66.189.59 (talk) 23:15, 3 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Megatron from Robots in Disguise is actually a seperate character as well, since he was named Gigatron in the original TV series. Hasbro just changed the name to Megatron when it was dubbed for the English audiences because they already owned a trademark on the name Megatron, but he's NOT actually Megatron either. He's Gigatron from the anime series Car Robots. Mathewignash (talk) 13:50, 6 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
