IDW comics had a series in which the main antagonists were a death squad of decepticon serial killers, apparently they realised due the fact that all their characters were robots they could get away with horror level scenes while still avoiding censorship. The acts of the villains included; Slaughtering a ship full of surrendering civilians, ripping out robotic entrails resembling metal intestines, eating autobot corpses, torturing an autobot into being a loyal pet in the form of a robotic attack dog, torturing loved ones in front of each other, and removing an autobots brain and shoving it into their mouths to see if they will bite down and kill themselves. Lots of lovely stuff like that.

The reason a lot of the captions hit as hard as they do is because they're a reward you get for continuous, outstanding wiki editing behavior (Keeping a formal tone on articles that aren't inherently a joke, citing sources for any additions, etc). I specify "articles that aren't inherently a joke" because while they do try to make an article for EVERYTHING, they also have two major factors going into these articles that parody wikis themselves. 1) If it's a cross-promotion, they try to describe it exclusively in how it pertains to the Transformers franchise, and thus any information not given in a transformers-related media is treated as speculation that shouldn't be listed on the page no matter how obvious it is for anyone else. For example, Darth Vader being Anakin Skywalker is covered due to a Star Destroyer toy that has both a Republic/Anakin mode, and an Empire/Vader mode, but most of his history - including the fact that he's Luke's father - is treated as speculation due to Transformers/Star Wars not actually covering most of his story, just vaguely referencing it through back-of-box descriptions and toy designs. 2) If there is an inherent lack of information about something, the article itself exists to highlight the absurdity of wikis that try to cover literally every little thing about a franchise, and often treats the concept as either mysterious and unknowable, or a footnote that kind of just exists.

2:32 (Pushes up glasses) Um, akshually, the pacifist version of Fakkadi resides in a different universe entirely, one where the Decepticons are heroic freedom fighters and the Autobots are despotic dubbed the "Shattered Glass" universe. It's a riff on the more well known "Mirror Universe" popularized in Star Trek... Seriously, though, as a Transformers nerd, it gives me so much joy watching other people get exposed to all the sprawling, insane deep-lore

[@llmkursk8254]

To clarify, “Shattered Glass” is the alternate multiverse where everything is opposite. Good and evil are switched, yadda yadda. For next time, I highly recommend Skywarp (G1), as the wiki categorized him as a Decepticon that likes to push others down stairs, and the toys page for both G1 Megatron and Optimus Prime. For example, there are toys out there of an Optimus Prime that transforms into a PlayStation, and a Megatron that transforms into a Sega Mega Drive. There’s also Erector (G1), JaM, and Trukk not Munkey. Just, don’t look into Kiss Players. We don’t talk about Kiss Players.

One mistake, one bad mis-step will cause the entire thing to shatter and fall apart; and Transformers would be ruined forever. Fortunately, there is hope. The Transformers fanbase has resolved to remain ever vigilant against something that could Ruin Transformers Forever, and call out a warning if they see something that could potentially do so. Some Transformers conservationists suggest a more extreme approach, that Transformers should abandon all attempts at re-invention and instead cater exclusively to the old-school collectors. Though attractive, this approach may prove impractical as a long-term solution. Ruined Forever remains a serious threat to Transformers now and in the foreseeable future, though it's possible a proposed initiative requiring all Transformers fans to purchase an annual plastic offset could ensure our fragile brand's existence through the mid-21st century." They proceed to have a list of link to other pages as examples of things that have 'ruined Transformers forever in the past' with such appealing links with names like "Hippies", "Bees, My God", "Radical Feminist SJWs", "Perverts" and "Munkies" among others.

ah you didnt find the beast within, a comic so bad that no joke the wiki lists a production error of 'this comic was produced'

[@AINGELPROJECT667]

Apparently the explanation for why the TFWiki is like this is because after an apparently *apocalyptic* shitstorm of drama on the original site, the creators realized that, with all the discrepancies, plot holes, mistakes, and absolute *bullshit* there is in the Transformers series overall, the only *sane* way to document it all is with a heaping spoonful of tongue-in-cheek humor.

Always funny to me seeing people baffled by a wiki that is more than happy to have fun and shitpost despite being a wiki.

Haha there's an Auralnauts quote under the Obi Wan picture at 3:52. "Would you like to buy some drugs, Larry?"

As a Transformers fan the TFwiki is the best fanwiki because not only is it an amazing source of knowledge, but everybody who runs the wiki is very aware of how utterly fucking stupid this franchise can be and they take the piss whenever they can.

[@jem5636]

Gosh, this brings back memories. I forgot how much of an amazing time the transformers fan wiki is, they always are in-depth with a ton of great jokes.

[@HORRIOR1]

You guys *barely* scratched the surface on the absolute madness that is this wiki...

[@NoGoodDirtyRicer]

The Transformers wiki is the internet in its purest form.

[@TBDF12]

The wiki is so self aware and funny.

[@smergthedargon8974]

4:48 You know the users are based when they're making RedLetterMedia references.

[@RAFMnBgaming]

I don't think there's anything that isn't referenced on there.

[@redacted8567]

I can’t believe you didn’t look at the article where Jesus Christ is regarded as a metaphor for Optimus Prime

Don't you disrespect the name of glorious Carbombya! My dad died fighting to free that place from the Westerners.
