This just reminded me that the transformers wiki has a page on Jesus Christ and it's written using solely information you can gather from the cartoons, as if the page author never heard of Jesus outside of the series

Jesus is presumably a human, but no facts are directly known about him, only other people's claims. For example, Sam Witwicky and his teacher both agree that, if Jesus were in the teacher's shoes, he would give the boy a dishonestly inflated grade to trick Sam's father into buying Sam a car.

Holy shit this is great

Another persistent rumor is that Jesus once died and came back to life. Given this (and the fact that he has only been referred to in dialogue, never established in person), he may simply be a metaphor for Optimus Prime.

New bit idea, always write pages on fan wikis as if you lived in that fictional world.

Pretty normal for a fan wiki of a setting. They want to verisimilitude of reading "wikipedia" from that setting. The technical notes and DVD making of notes are sometimes there, but tend to get way less play than describing what a character did in an episode in the style of Wikipedia.

Oh shit that rules
