Lede

Now that Fields of Elysium has been released we are, of course, seeing links to this article popping up in articles on a daily basis. Technically speaking, these articles are referring to a simulation of Elysium and not the "real" Elysium of Greek mythology; I feel it is important that a distinction be made.

To date, I have taken to inserting references to "a simulation of Elysium" in our articles, but I concede that this is not entirely practical (or even preferable), so I am now of the opinion that this article should be changed.

Currently, the lede of this article references the "real" Elysium before detailing the simulation - I believe that this should be changed. The way I see it, we have two options:

1. Alter the lede to prioritise the simulation aspect over mythological representation
2. Split the article into Elysium and Elysium (simulation), at which point we can decide which to give precedence too

Thoughts? --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 09:48, April 25, 2019 (UTC)

My vote's with the first. Similar to how we deal with deities and other mythical aspects who haven't been split into two already which turn out to be...something else in AC-franchise. So prioritize the simulation and mention the mythological further in the article. Sadelyrate (siniath) 10:23, April 25, 2019 (UTC)

My vote is with the first, same as Sadel. XOdeyssusx (talk) 11:28, April 25, 2019 (UTC)

If the mythological place becomes more relevant, and/or the article grows too large, then the second suggestion would be more valid. As it is, I for one am not seeing the need for it, atm. Sadelyrate (siniath) 12:06, April 25, 2019 (UTC)
