Another look at the page made me realized how messed up it was, even before it passed FA status. Overly long paragraphs (some paragraphs contain unnecessary info), messy formatting of pictures, unorganized sectioning, improper/informal wording. I'll do a revamp of the page some time in the future but, for now, I say its status be removed. --JackWallsSupermen 09:05, November 29, 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, sue me for nominating it before. --JackWallsSupermen 09:05, November 29, 2011 (UTC)
I see what you mean about the wording. Not difficult to fix, just lengthy and tedious. -- 'R BlaiddDdraigEnter... THE SCARY DOOR 09:53, November 29, 2011 (UTC)
Yay. For me some parts are not phrased very well and in some sections there is bad formatting. RomehSpeak now 16:14, November 29, 2011 (UTC)
Could indeed do with quite a bit more work. NestyContact me! 20:29, November 29, 2011 (UTC)
As Blaidd and Rome have said, the wording needs improvement and formatting work. NostalgiaLet's talk. 03:34, December 6, 2011 (UTC)

Look, I let it slide with Daniel Cross because the article was well written and I thought someone might add the mandatory Personality and Traits section soon after it was nominated, but now I see Hannah Mueller on the main page and I have to question some of the Staffs' thought processes at the time they saw these articles on this list. Neither of these articles have the mandatory Personality and Traits section, and Hannah Mueller is badly written at best. Honestly, even if somebody now writes a P&T section for both these articles, they still need to go through the entire process again and be looked at with a fresh set of eyes.
Nein. We've actually rectified the rules for nomination (both GA and FA) so that it won't require all pre-requisites. This was done after a rather...unique, group discussion, and have all agreed to the new rule changes. Have a look at the rules again and see for yourself. --JackWallsSupermen 08:53, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
I actually think a Personality and characteristics section would make these two articles better, but if everyone is content with leaving them out seeing as it's no longer a rule, then I think the pages are good enough as they are. -- 'R BlaiddDdraigEnter... THE SCARY DOOR 09:10, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
Both pages are good as they are now, though in the future both could use a personality and characteristics section. NostalgiaLet's talk. 03:36, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I was there for the entire discussion about the personality section, and while it may be required by the rules, it doesn't add much to the article that alredy is there. Subject 12Talk to me 04:46, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
The article (both of them) have good wording and look good with quotes, pictures ect... they changed the rules. So I'd say keep it the way it is. TellerWords, On my Screen :O 05:51, December 6, 2011 (UTC)
Comments
Both Cello and I agreed that the Personality and characteristics are not mandatory, in the case that the overall article is worthy enough to be kept Featured status, and all the staff are aware of this. Your criteria is, therefore, redundant. -- Master Sima Yi 20:15, November 29, 2011 (UTC)
Eight at the top of this page, in big bold letters it says "An article must ...include a "personality and characteristics" section on all character articles." it's one of the rules, as set out since this page first came into existence; It doesn't matter what you and Cello think. --Jasca DucatoCouncil ChamberAssassination record 20:57, November 29, 2011 (UTC)
I know it says that. Otherwise my comment would've been redundant. And it doesn't matter what Cello and I think? Nice. I'm pretty sure that us staff have written the rules, and therefore we are also the ones who can bend them. Do not hide behind set rules all the time. -- Master Sima Yi 08:41, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
If you have problems with the new rule changes, tell it to the judge. --JackWallsSupermen 08:56, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
Re-read my first comment thoroughly. -- Master Sima Yi 13:25, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
And another thing, don't treat these rules like it's the Ten Commandments or something. God didn't write them, people on this wiki did. We staff can adjust them for the betterment of the wiki. --JackWallsSupermen 14:41, November 30, 2011 (UTC)
Sima: Re-read my response to that comment carefully. Rules are rules for a reason, and why you lot are simply trying to avoid improving the articles so they actually meet the requirements that had been previously agreed rather than try and argue with me, is beyond me. --Jasca DucatoCouncil ChamberAssassination record 18:48, December 3, 2011 (UTC)

As part of my apprenticeship, I have to get Rodrigo Borgia to FA. The page was already in quite a good shape, but I did quite a bit of rewording and some lay-out work. Personally, I think it is good enough as it is now. If you disagree, let me know why and I'll see to it your comments are adressed.NestyContact me! 10:30, December 19, 2011 (UTC)

I have expanded and revamped the entire page, replacing images and quotes, and doing a large amount of rewording. I've consulted with Istruttore GuardDog and Istruttore TheSt0ryTeller, both of whom agree that it is of FA quality, after providing me with some suggestions.

All my comments have been covered. =GuardDog 11:37, December 20, 2011 (UTC)
I was misquoted! D: What? I did say that? Why was I not informed? TellerWords, On my Screen :O 12:45, December 20, 2011 (UTC)
It was severely lacking some information on the escape, so I added that. Though I didn't know the proper name for that door on the floor thing, or those mechanisms which held the gate shut, so I just used some generic words for them. I also removed the second paragraph of the Aftermath section, it went into too much detail and was unnecessary. Other than that, the page was written very well, so it's all good now. -- 'R BlaiddDdraigEnter... THE SCARY DOOR 03:35, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

And another one. Sima likes to keep me busy, apparently... Anyway, did some major rewording, moved some images around, created a gallery, added quotes. I think it's ready, if you don't agree, let me know and I'll make it better. NestyContact me! 18:51, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

We really need a new infobox image. But I fear the chances of getting one is slim. So, I guess it's set to go. --JackWallsSupermen 07:39, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

I might want to change a few things myself... tomorrow, so I will get back to this later. -- Master Sima Yi 23:41, December 21, 2011 (UTC)
As for the infobox image, I asked Jpulowski (The guy that provided the image for all Templar Agents and a few others) if he could find something. He hasn't replied yet. NestyContact me! 12:50, December 22, 2011 (UTC)

Also known as "Al Mualim". He was already GA, and I think I improved the page massively (if I may say so myself). I removed the random quotes, moved the images around, reworded the entire page, fixed the final words section, etc. etc.
Not good enough? Let me know and I'll improve it. NestyContact me! 19:46, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

Already gave the page a revamp a while back prior to Revelations' release, now I cleared the page up. All info is on there, the formatting is good, pictures are good. I think it's worthy of FA status. Got any comments, leave them below. -- Master Sima Yi 23:41, December 21, 2011 (UTC)

Was the DLC confirmed? The article looks good and reads well, but if there really is upcoming info, I'm with Story on this one. =GuardDog 03:21, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

This page's already made GA, and since then, several quotes, images and two new sections (Design and Templar Replicas) have been added. Seems worthy to me now, but please say so if something needs to be fixed. =GuardDog 17:01, January 3, 2012 (UTC)

TST and I both worked on this article, and have consulted with Guard. After rounds of editing and lots of rewording, we believe the article is ready for FA status. Thanks for voting. Nostalgia ACLet's talk. 00:54, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

Not trying to be a pain here, but keep in mind that an FA article needs to be understandable for all our users. An articles quality is not determined by the amount of "difficult" words in it. Reword it a bit more and I'll change my vote. NestyContact me! 04:37, January 11, 2012 (UTC)

Pre-event details are a bit lengthy; it might actually be better to shorten or skip Shadowing. The opening section could use a mention of the aftermath, and its last two paragraphs about Suleiman might be better suited for the body, rather than the opening. But otherwise, information seems complete and flows well, will vote after changes. =GuardDog 09:36, January 10, 2012 (UTC)
I've done some work based off of your comments, which I hope should change your vote; if you still believe it needs work, however, then I understand as well. Nostalgia ACLet's talk. 20:24, January 10, 2012 (UTC)

I've reworded nearly the entire article, as it was basically a walkthrough of the entire event prior to my revamp. I've also inserted new images into the article, and I did some work with the infobox. I believe it is of FA quality, and I have implemented some suggestions Guard has given me. Thanks for voting.

I've done a good amount of expansion on the article, primarily in the Aftermath and opening sections. I've also reworded most of the article, replacing quotes and images as well. Furthermore, I did some work to tidy up the infobox, and I believe it's ready for FA. Thanks for voting, everyone. Nostalgia ACLet's talk. 11:54, January 19, 2012 (UTC)
