Command and Conquer Wiki talk:Article writing

I agree with the whole thing (no surprise there) except for this part:

"Articles should be written from an omniscient in-universe perspective. Gameplay sections may be written from an out-of-universe perspective."

I think it's been the standard at this wiki to write things from a non-omniscient in-universe perspective (as if this were an encyclopedia written by someone living in one of the universes), which is why the Kane article says (paraphrase) "someone who looks like Kane acted as a high adviser to Joseph Stalin during World War II" even though (out of universe) we know that person was, in fact, Kane.

 * The omniscient part was in response to seeing things like "character spoke with ***CLASSIFIED***" (usually in reference to a player character) instead of "character spoke with a -faction- field commander". It seems cases like Kane are more exceptions rather than the rule. It would be perfect if we can get a referencing system going then we can point to the Kane dossier that EA was distributing at one point and make the ambiguity "official". - Meco (talk) 05:59, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

What's the policy for unambiguous page titles?
Articles like the Proton Collider don't really need the "(RA Universe)" appended. I mean, how many other Proton Colliders are there? Should they be left on for consistency or removed? - Ex Machinæ 21:04, 1 August 2009 (UTC)
 * Dump them for unambiguous things. http://images2.wiki.nocookie.net/fallout/images/thumb/5/5c/Scribe.jpg/15px-Scribe.jpg Tagaziel (call!) 12:43, 2 August 2009 (UTC)
