Tone issues[edit]

I flagged this article for having problematic tone. Some of the content involving romance is written in over-the-top, redudant language. I know exactly who is responsible for this, a disruptive IP editor from Gaithersburg, Maryland, for instance 71.191.172.211 (talk · contribs · WHOIS) who contributed some ridiculousness here. "Rex's tremendously strong E.V.O. abilities", "Rex had shared a romantic kiss with his beloved sweetheart and girlfriend", "five Master-Control Nanites were designed to only be usable by Rex in their purest state and form", "the mighty, all-powerful Omega-One", "a newly enhanced and superpowered version", "intending to take advantage of the purely strong and close romance", "the one guy she deeply loved and cared about", "Rex loved and cared about her very much", etc. I think you get my drift. Any help trimming this crufty nonsense out of the article would be appreciated. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 18:02, 4 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Providence = dysfunctional workplace?[edit]

Is Providence a dysfunctional workplace?

Abenteeism? Rex and Bobo go on a "road trip" as it were, and are recaptured with a tracking device. Check.

Abusive supervision in these categories:

workplace bullying/workplace violence by alleged "hierarchically superior agent", actually just White Knight:

"[while firing the suit's shoulder-mounted chaingun at Rex] I'm not going to turn into some freak that flips out and betrays the team!" - White Knight, in episode "Plague". White Knight also views soldiers as expendable weapons, which counts as "Disrespecting and devaluing the individual, often through disrespectful and devaluing language or verbal abuse". "Managing by threat and intimidation" ... oh, well "When his soldiers act out of line, he's not above threatening them. He even threatened to eliminate Rex if Six could not learn to control him better." "Impulsive destructive behaviour" ... "White seems to favor violence to get the job done.", and "The robot is piloted by a person inside. It has a large arsenal of weapons, greatly enhances White Knight's strength, and has flight capabilities. However, it was destroyed after battling Rex". Check.

Machiavellianism in the workplace, Social undermining (in its capacity of invading privacy): Hires Noah as a spy against his own star employee, Rex. Check.

Workplace romance: "Six, on the advice of Rex, later asked her out on a date, which she gladly accepted. Following Six's memory loss, Holiday was a little unnerved by his more aggressive romantic overtures (such as the pick-up lines), though it is confirmed in further episodes that her feelings toward him have remained the same. This is evident in the season three episode, 'Ben 10/Generator Rex : Heroes United,' when she kneels beside Six, who is in a comatose state, and kisses the glass of the chamber he is in."

Workplace incivility: "[Rex] has a quick wit and is constantly making jokes". Check.

Personality clash: "Rex is overconfident, impulsive, and typically, rebellious." Check.

Work–family conflict: "Give me one good reason why [we should not kill the spider being that imprisoned a lot of Rex's colleagues]", Rex said.

"She's my sister!", Dr. Holliday said.

Check.

Toxic leadership by White Knight in these additional aspects:

insularity - "He has a Mysophobia-like fear of nanites, he doesn't want to touch or even be near E.V.O.s because he fears they'll infect him with nanites." Check.
intemperate - "As a boss, White Knight is tirelessly difficult-to-please, demanding and critical and verbally rejects all or essentially all objections to his leadership style." Check.
callous - "White Knight has both a fear and hatred of E.V.O.s and nanites. Over the years, he's seen that nanites typically turn humans and animals into mindless, rampaging beasts: thus, he doesn't trust anything with nanites, namely every living thing on the planet ... At times, he demonstrates a slightly sadistic behavior toward E.V.O.s." Check.
corrupt - "... White Knight rebelled against his superiors in the Consortium". Check.

Black Knight's leadership style and Consortium infighting. The only reason why I'm surprised that White Knight was fired is that I anticipated the workplace to be dysfunctional enough for White Knight to stay in power essentially forever. 130.105.212.242 (talk) 09:10, 17 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I added hyperlinks of the characters to their Fandom pages[edit]

I decided to add hyperlinks of the characters from Generator Rex into their Fandom articles. Why did someone revert my edit? I was also going to do this to the characters from other TV shows, but I didn't because I got tired, so I probably will in the future. Lazar Alabic 2005 (talk) 23:07, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Those edits were reverted because other wikis are not reliable sources due to editors there being able to alter them.--Mr Fink (talk) 23:59, 5 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
