	As for the ''Encyclopedia'' and ''Essential Guide'', I agree that the errors within them should be ignored.

	Case in point, the ''Essential Guide'', from what I've heard, describes Darius and Wei Yu as belonging to the Persian and Chinese Brotherhoods respectively.

<div class="quote">Master Sima Yi wrote:<br />The Encyclopedia also says Qulan Gal shot Genghis Khan. The Encyclopedias and the Essential Guide are riddled with errors and not leading authorities on ''AC'' lore. Aquilus' entry was added in the first edition of the Encyclopedia and never updated to include content from the third volume. The Encyclopedia also dates from a time where the brand team did not hold this current stance.

I'm not saying we should remove the information from the corresponding pages for Aquilus, Accipiter, etc. but I do suggest we remove it from pages like Assassins and Templars considering the brand team is distancing itself from these events and the future lore will reflect that.

I had already emailed Aymar on the matter and his explanation is that the characters in these comics definitely are canon, but the events that transpire in them are not. When their stories are picked up on, they will not necessarily pick up on what the French comics establish.

Another suggestion is to make a template that we can use between paragraphs to note that the following information is semi-canon and may be subject to future changes, and another similar template to note that the semi-canon information has ended. We can include the basic information about the characters outside of these templates, and the actual events of the comic within these templates.

Wookieepedia uses such templates. Look [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Template%3ANoncanonstart here] and [http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Template%3ANoncanonend here].

Ah, thank you for the explanation. I was not aware that Aymar had elaborated on his current stance on the matter.

As for the ''Encyclopedia'' and ''Essential Guide'', I agree that the errors within them should be ignored. However, I believe that information which does not directly contradict anything that has currently been established should be retained.

Case in point, the ''Essential Guide'', from what I've heard, describes Darius and Wei Yu as belonging to the Persian and Chinese Brotherhoods respectively. We already this could not really be the case, since the name of their group was established much later.

The easiest compromise is to just say that they both belonged to pre-Bayek Assassin-esque groups that were retroactively regarded by later Assassins as their predecessors.
