	:@Donutcity: Welcome, and thanks for cleaning up a lot of the pages. To your proposal, I think it depends on which piece of the official [[canon]] we want to base the page name. If I haven't missed any occurrences, the manuals (SC1 PC, SC2 PC, SC2 3DO) and in-game Chmmr dialogue (text at least, still need to check the audio) use "X-Form" or some variation on it. The 3DO SC2 video and the ComSim image (SC1) use "Transformer". I'm a bit partial to the X-Form name because it's more common and in the Chmmr conversation. I don't think the X in X-Form necessarily has the same meaning as the X in X-Wing, so I don't see it as favoring one or the other. <small> Also you can sign your talk page comments with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki></small> --[[User:Fyzixfighter\|Fyzixfighter]] ([[User talk:Fyzixfighter\|talk]]) 04:31, 1 July 2015 (CEST)		:@Donutcity: Welcome, and thanks for cleaning up a lot of the pages.

			@Fyzixfighter: Hi, the Ultranomicon is amazing! Thanks for clearing this one up for me, my eyes glossed over the glaring difference: X-Form = X-Wing + Y-Wing. Makes sense now. But i never played the original Star Control, so idk what the ship was called in-game. By the time i got on board, "the process" was well underway and gave us the Avatar, which is kind of a big X-Wing with flying Crazy Weasels.
