[edit] Notes

This article is the franchise article to the entire Macross series. Given the number of series and its 25 year history as a franchise, it is appropriate to have this article here. KyuuA4 (talk) 04:03, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

The current title description is wrong. Macross comes from "Mac" and "OS" as in the operating system. Hence, "Macross II", "Macross 7" and "Macross Plus" to reflect the changes with the Macintosh operating system. Zero and Frontier, differ of course, but that's the origin of the name.

Uhhh... no. You're wanting to cite a blog for this?. Not to mention a fan/commerical blog and not an industry blog? The macbeth / macross story is not well documented, I'll give you that. Why don't you write a letter to Studio Nue and ask them or something instead of tossing in this rubbish? 71.65.33.71 (talk) 14:30, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Merger

Shouldn't this articled be merged together with Robotech (with Macross being the main title of the article, but reference by both Macross and Robotech)? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.170.100.48 (talk) 09:36, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

No, because the scope of this article also includes the entire franchise, which includes later series such as Macross Plus, Macross 7, and so forth. None of those are related to Robotech at all. The Macross-Robotech correlation begins with the first series and diverges thereafter. KyuuA4 (talk) 16:48, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Links to fansites

I've removed several links that fall into the category of links to avoid. I would also like to remove the whole fansite area or at least incorporate one or two links to the official ones and just be 'External links' but I'd like to have your input here first. --Quess (talk) 15:49, 3 June 2008 (UTC)
