Jagex are at the moment producing a new game called Transformers Universe. It's a game currently in it's beta, and due to release next year.

I contribute to a wiki dedicated to the game, but there is limited information about the game and so we do not have a lot of pages. Also we do not have many members either, but regardless I will carry on making the wiki better.

Link: Transformersuniverse.wikia.com

I wish to exchange links with you in hope of promoting my wiki so more members join, so when the game does come out I will have a community to make the wiki grow, instead of editing and creating new pages by myself.

~~Oppose~~ - I don't think this wiki deserves adding a link in RS:LINKS, as this wiki is not much related to RuneScape. Besides, the wiki is quite new (23 Pages only), and the game is in closed beta right now. This wiki should not be promoted, at least at this moment.

That's not exactly fair to say that "we won't help you get contributors because you don't have enough contributors". That sort of Catch-22 doesn't really help anyone. MolMan 15:39, December 30, 2012 (UTC)

That doesn't mean anything. We have a link shared with FunOrb and War of Legends. http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg244/blaze_fire12/RuneScape%20Wiki%20Images/Blaze_fire.png http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg244/blaze_fire12/RuneScape%20Wiki%20Images/12.png 18:52, December 30, 2012 (UTC)

By the way, why will we adding these links anyway?

Why do we link to them? Consensus. I would assume FunOrb wiki had the same thing, but I can't be sure. http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg244/blaze_fire12/RuneScape%20Wiki%20Images/Blaze_fire.png http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg244/blaze_fire12/RuneScape%20Wiki%20Images/12.png 16:47, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

Well, then I think TFU wiki could be our sister wiki, but not now per my reason above.

Neutral - Currently, I'm neutral for this proposal. While I agree with Tim that the wiki is in closed beta with only a limited number of pages, that's exactly why they don't have any contributors. I have no doubt that the wiki will become popular once the game is in open beta. Until then, I'd say wait on making a decision. http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg244/blaze_fire12/RuneScape%20Wiki%20Images/Blaze_fire.png http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg244/blaze_fire12/RuneScape%20Wiki%20Images/12.png 18:52, December 30, 2012 (UTC)

Support - While I certainly don't care about that game at all, I don't see why we should not share links with them when we share links with WoL wiki and FO wiki. bad_fetus^talk 01:40, January 1, 2013 (UTC)

I'll come back once the game is in Open Beta or has been released which should be later on this year 97Aadil (talk) 17:09, January 2, 2013 (UTC)

Hopefully you won't have to. wink wink. MolMan 21:52, January 2, 2013 (UTC)

Support - Every wiki needs a decent place to start and a wiki without a real community *cough* answers *cough* will go nowhere fast. We shouldn't deny a link simply because of something silly like size or concept. We're a huge wiki and the fact that both games are made by Jagex is damn fine enough of a reason for me to support a link. On top of that, there's absolutely no harm done in adding the link; in the long run, it could prove detrimental not to share (not likely though). Best of luck Aadil, to you and TFU.

P.S. w:c:TFU is already taken; sorry. MolMan 21:52, January 2, 2013 (UTC)

{{closure|Maybe I'm wrong, but I think we just had a nominator withdrawal.}} Michagogo (talk) 12:13, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

Declined - That wasn't a withdrawal, that was just someone from their wiki leaving. 222 ^talk 12:50, January 3, 2013 (UTC)

~~A user has requested closure for Exchange links for TFU wiki?.~~ Request complete. The reason given was: nom withdrew, see below

Pretty sure this guy has withdrawn for now implied by statements which may be seen on my talk page, particularly: Anyways as I said before I will come back to this wiki and propose to share links once the game reaches open beta. MolMan 20:20, January 11, 2013 (UTC)

Closed - User appears to have withdrawn at this time until the beta is open. Coelacanth0794 Talk 15:53, January 12, 2013 (UTC)
