::I'm not claiming they're not a species. I'm saying that if they're a species then there should be two pages, since the reference the original page contained was about an organization, not a species. If you want to discuss the stuff you've added on a species page, feel free to remove it and make a species page. Please, in no way feel wedded to keeping information that might not belong to a page I created about an organization "Transformers, robots in disguise" on that page. (Robot) is clearly incorrect, as it's conflating the group ''members'' with the ''group''. (Much like confusing [[Dalek]] with [[Dalek Empire]], or the cells that make up the heart with the heart itself.) It should either be "Transformers", "Transformers (group)", Transformers (organization)", "Transformers, robots in disguise", or a similar dab to the middle two. Politely, the entire dab issue is just a giant [https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/category-mistakes/ category error].

But the thing is, I am just not convinced that "organization" is really strongly implied by any of these sources. "group" I guess makes sense... But why not use a DAB that implies the contents of the page? The Transformers are not a group or an organization. It just feels like we're extracting something not anywhere in the text.
