	Normally when we cite we cite the memories or chapters/issues. For instances like ''Initiates'' we were doing <nowiki>''[[Assassin's Creed: Initiates]]'' – [[Surveillance#What's an Initiate\|Surveillance: "What's an Initiate?"]]</nowiki> Which then followed onto when citing AC2's glyphs, and ''Rogue''{{'}}s War Letters, even the Discovery Tours. All of these count as documents however, so when citing things like the modern day story citing something as "Before sequence 9" is wrong but it's more specific. Correctly it would be <nowiki>''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' – [[21st century conversations#Assassin's Creed: Odyssey\|Modern day]]</nowiki> and thats it.

	Hi all,		Hi all,

	How in depth do we make our citations? I've been wanting to cite weapon descriptions for use on other pages, could they be sourced as <nowiki>''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' - [[Dagger of Kronus]]</nowiki> for example?

	There's some uncertainty on what we should cite and all. Weapons descriptions being one of them, however if we count weapons as items and items and documents it could work.
