    This is all that needs to be said whenever someone asks for a leader <insert character here>.

    1) Wikipedia is not, nor has it ever been, a reliable source
    2) If it wasn't practical for Blackout, why would it be practical for Grindor?

    That was a line added by an anonymous poster less then a day ago and was removed right away. It's already gone. Do you realize how many false items about Grindor I have removed myself since the movie came out? He's Blackout brought back online? He's Blackout's cousin? He's the guy in France who kidnaps the Witwicky (even though he's dead by then!). Many Transformers/ROTF pages have to be periodically protected from anonymous users as it's VERY popular right now for people to just post gossip and fan theories as fact.

    Let's see... checking with the anonymous poster's record, he's also made comments about Hugo Weaving being cast in "Transformers 3" and he's posted a whole paragraph about Megatron's return in "Transformers 3." which I just had to delete. Yep's it's just a vandalization.

    I think he is suggesting that Wikipedia ban that ISP from making edits. They seem to clearly make things up. I'm posting a warning to the guy's talk page.

    As much as I want Leader Grindor, it's not going happen. Let alone count on Wikipedia for legit info.

    Two things:
    1) As I've already said elsewhere, Wikipedia is a good tool if you know how to use it. If there's a reference for a claim, fine. Otherwise, it's pretty safe to assume it's bullshit. Wikipedia's regulars are anal about having sources for EVERYTHING.

    2) Not the Leader class Blackout/Grindor thing AGAIN. Why can't people get onboard with what we really need: Leader class Scalpel, a real working microscope!

    If Blackout didn't get a leader class toy, Grindor sure as heck isn't.

    Tune in tomorrow, when someone demands Human Alliance Wheelie and Daniel... and not just to throw rocks at them!
