Mission Briefing[]
Hi everyone, I want to start this discussion regarding the "Mission Briefing" section, not just in VC1 but in the projects for VC2, VC3 missions as well. Currently, this section is just a quote of what the characters said in the game. I think this is quite pointless and I think we should drop this entirely. What do you think? [Arcius]

I'm honestly not too sure. I guess it is redundant though. Eminent Rising

I'd have to agree that it is kind of redundant, since often times it just covers general topography (which we cover in "Topography") and some generic tips about what can be done (which we might cover in "Strategy" depending on relevancy). Mission objectives are also covered in the Infobox area. While I like the thoroughness it's trying to achieve in the wiki, I would expect the player to either read it in-game once or just skip it completely. Shinokodomo 02:25, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- While i agree with the section being unnessicary i feel that it adds to the completeness of the article and should be kept, especially in the case of the VC1 articles as the game tends to have more indepth briefings than it's sequals. Ecchi_garr 10:58, March 30, 2012 (UTC)
- I agree with Ecchi that this section in VC2 and VC3 gives little to none information so I guess we will remove them altogether, right?
- As for VC1, as Shino said, the Mission Objectives are already covered in the infobox so how about we keep the Mission Briefing but remove the Objectives part? [Arcius]

- In VC2 (not sure about VC3), the only briefings that give useful information is the briefing of story mission so I guess we can keep that. But as for others, they are non-canon and conflicting. For example, Jugin rejoined Lanseal after the war ended, but his mission's briefing says that: "A large rebel force attacked Leanbluff forest". Or in some Paid missions and post-game missions, there are multiple attack on Lanseal on different months while in fact there is only one attack. I think we should not include this part of the non-story mission to avoiding confusing readers. [Arcius] 08:54, April 2, 2012 (UTC)
