So hows it looking now? Diablo-D3 09:41, 8 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I hate the new changes. The words are way to spread out in the system/armament listings. The pictures look odd and out of place for a lot, the most obvious being the Gundam Development Project mobile suits. In my opinion it looked better before your formatting changes. The only change I'd make is put the system/armament listings back to the way they were before your refit. User-Name 16:01, 10 Apr 2005 (UTC)
So, basically, move all the images right again? I'm going to be trying to fix the weirdness with the tables too, but I'm leaving them. Diablo-D3 05:21, 11 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Actucally I really just hate the tables. It looks very disorganized. I perferred using the <br> tags. For example, look at the GP01 data. It's way too spaced out IMO. Looks very bad. User-Name 00:37, 12 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Hrm, bleh, I'll rollback the tables then, but I'll also have to move all images right. Diablo-D3 19:43, 13 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Personally, I think we should get rid of the Blue Destiny Gundams because their uncanon, video game spawn Gundams. We should have only canon RX-78 Gundams, which means removing them. Now if someone wants to set up a Blue Destiny page, be my guest. More Gundam, the better. But it should also be in the right places.
I don't agree with that. Being game original unit doesn't mean they aren't uncanon MS. If we got to remove them, it would be more make sense to creat new article for whole RX-79 model. L-Zwei 07:12, 20 Apr 2005 (UTC)
Wait a second, video game spawn gundams? The Blue Destinies came from a manga, if I remember properly.
Yes, the BD series also have a Manga featuring them. And guess what, the manga is called Blue Destiny.
But it is spawned as video game before the story is written into manga.
Also Bandai went ahead and made official 1/144 HGUC model kits on the 3 blue destiny mobilesuits. It was also featured later in the game Gundam: Enoucnters in space, inwhich bandai evenhad a team animate parts of the story into anime sequences between missions. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.0.60.21 ( talk) 08:59, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

I have added RX-78-7 and RX-78-8 which appeared in MSV and M-MSV. I know that RX-78-8 never have a picture but RX-78-7, FA-78-3 and FHA-78-3 should have.
However, I cannot find decent quality pictures for these units. If anyone have them, please upload and modify the post.
MAHQ.net got some picture, but it is not very clear.

In the Video game Gihren's Greed, there is an RX-78 C.A. built after Char Aznable took over control from the Zabi's. The unit got the design of RX-78-2 but the inside is totally Zeon technology.
There is also a Titans version of RX-78 in the same game.
not to say that these should be added in here, but just a sidenote on other RX-78s
Also, the RX-78GT4 series should be added in here, too. If anyone got detailed description and pictures of it, it would be nice.
From what basis is there an 8th Gundam? I looked through MAHQ.net's MSV and M-MSV sections and found nothing on it.
OK - I'm not a gundam expert or fan - but to save the article I suggest the following -
1) ramp up the real world cultural relevence section.
2) Remove most of the images
3) Remove most of the stats.
Over on the AFD someone mentioned the X-wing page - maybe people should look at that as a model.

I am for adding pictures, however it should be more organized. I mean, the featured article of Link (Zelda) got a bunch of pics, Z Gundam and ZZ Gundam got a bunch of pics. Having a lot pictures is not the main problem here, not having enough out of universe description is.

the rx-78-2 and the two images of the alex are from the GundamOfficial.com site. the murdock images and the two msv types are from mahq. and the g-3 does appear in a animated form during the gundam the ride the shuttle you are rideing goes past the g3 in combat also in the novel amaro does trash the gundam and receves the g3 as a replacement. the evolve version image was off the official site. also the image of the rx-78 in it's current for seems redundent with the info box image of the 1979 gundam line art.

this site has some verients listed that came from the model kits can we work some of them in to this article like the gudams alternate paint job and the replica gundam.
most of the rx-78 verients do have some impact on the franchise even though they never appear in animated form. the 7th gundam inspired the rx-78 gp03 shown on 0083 while a unit in gundam sentinal is also simular to the look of this gundam. Jeffpiatt 18:45, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

As part of MHI Jobcon 2005 ( Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Job Convention 2005), a recruiting event of Mitsubishi Heavy Industries Ltd, seminars were held in six Japanese cities. The topic of these seminars was "Mobile Suit Gundam Development Story"; which indicated the requirements and processes that Mitsubishi would have to implement if the company had been required to build an RX-78 mobile suit. <ref>{{cite web | url = http://www.mhi-ir.jp/news/sec1/200502044313.html | title = MHI Jobcon 2005 | date = [[4 February]] [[2005]] | language = Japanese | accessdate = 2007-01-11}}</ref>

The RX-78-2 Gundam has been the featured mobile suit in two of the Gundam Evolve short films. The first Evolve short "RX-78-2 Gundam" featured it in a limited capacity, instead focusing on its pilot Amuro Ray, who reminisced about the previous battles he had gone through while waiting to sortie. The second short film to feature the Gundam is the 15th installment of the Evolve series, a remake of the episode "Newtype Challia Bull" from the original series. Instead of basing the CGI models on the original line art from the series, the Gundam was completely redesigned to fit a more modernized aesthetic. The other main mobile weapons in the short — the GM, Guncannon, and Challia Bull's Braw Bro — were also redesigned to a considerable degree.
I have no idea where to put this, but it doesn't belong in the pop culture section, as it's a Sunrise Gundam production. - A Man In Bl♟ck ( conspire - past ops) 00:23, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
According to Katoki Hajime commenting the poles from Newtype (magazine), as quoted in Newtype magazine serialized Seed Club 4 koma short comic series, as of 26th August, 2005, the MG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. 1.5 ranked TOP1 in Gundam Traditional MG because it is the best valued model if one wants to buy the original Gundam; and the MG RX-78-5 Gundam G05 ranked TOP1 in Easiest to build MG since its appearance in various games and Gundam Ace magazine, a lot of people liked the unit and although the design looks like the original Gundam, it does not carry the old stinkiness(古臭) feeling and is modeled specially for new model builders, gaining it fame in an easy building model kit category.<ref>''Seed Club 4 coma'', page 78 & 79</ref>
This is horribly confusingly written; I'm having trouble figuring out what the factual claim is. - A Man In Bl♟ck ( conspire - past ops) 00:32, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
While running the date delinker script, I noticed that this article is using three competing date format. The first two are the DMY format and the MDY format. The third is the ISO format, which should be converted to one of the other two. DMY and ISO date format is mostly used in the references as MDY format is used in the body of the article. WP:DATE does state that the date format in the article should be consistent through the article between DMY or MDY. I'll have to do a bit of checking to see which format was used by the articles first significant contributor. I'll also note that most other Gundam related articles use the MDY format. However, the importance of consistency with the other sub-articles isn't as pertinent as it is between the top level articles. See Talk:Gundam#Date formats for previous discussion on this topic. — Farix ( t | c) 03:39, 26 November 2009 (UTC)

MOS:INUNIVERSE. "Mobile suit" is an in-universe terminology for what is commonly known as a
mecha, and the latter would be more clear to the typical reader who is not a Gundam fan.

According to Katoki Hajime commenting the poles from Newtype (magazine), as quoted in Newtype magazine serialized Seed Club 4 koma short comic series, as of 26th August, 2005, the MG RX-78-2 Gundam Ver. 1.5 ranked TOP1 in Gundam Traditional MG because it is the best valued model if one wants to buy the original Gundam; and the MG RX-78-5 Gundam G05 ranked TOP1 in Easiest to build MG since its appearance in various games and Gundam Ace magazine, a lot of people liked the unit and although the design looks like the original Gundam, it does not carry the old stinkiness(古臭) feeling and is modeled specially for new model builders, gaining it fame in an easy building model kit category.<ref>''Seed Club 4 coma'', page 78 & 79</ref>
This is horribly confusingly written; I'm having trouble figuring out what the factual claim is. - A Man In Bl♟ck ( conspire - past ops) 00:32, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
While running the date delinker script, I noticed that this article is using three competing date format. The first two are the DMY format and the MDY format. The third is the ISO format, which should be converted to one of the other two. DMY and ISO date format is mostly used in the references as MDY format is used in the body of the article. WP:DATE does state that the date format in the article should be consistent through the article between DMY or MDY. I'll have to do a bit of checking to see which format was used by the articles first significant contributor. I'll also note that most other Gundam related articles use the MDY format. However, the importance of consistency with the other sub-articles isn't as pertinent as it is between the top level articles. See Talk:Gundam#Date formats for previous discussion on this topic. — Farix ( t | c) 03:39, 26 November 2009 (UTC)
The result of the move request was: Move to Gundam (fictional robot). There's a clear consensus to move and this is the best supported option. Cúchullain t/ c 20:04, 28 September 2017 (UTC)
Gundam (mobile suit) →
Gundam (mecha) – The current disambiguation is not suggested by
MOS:INUNIVERSE. "Mobile suit" is an in-universe terminology for what is commonly known as a
mecha, and the latter would be more clear to the typical reader who is not a Gundam fan.

Gundam the robot is notable - but we don't need two articles about this. Fanwikis can have dozen articles about all the different gundam subtypes, but there is no evidence they are actually notable as separately. -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 06:43, 28 February 2020 (UTC)
