Main Assignments

Project 1: Savonarola's lieutenants - "Elch can't think of a creative name"

Project 1

Afternoon, Apprentice. I'm dropping two tasks in here for you while I'm out next week, and here is the first. It essentially involves the standardization of the pages for Savonarola's Lieutenants. It shouldn't be too challenging for you. :P So, here's the pages: Painter The Doctor The Preacher The Farmer The Condottorio The Merchant The Nobleman The Priest The Captain Guard So, your task is to standardize the pages – how you do that is completely up to you. However, I am going to offer my advice on some things you could do – obviously, you should try to think of more ways in which to make these pages standard. Suggested tasks Standardize headings Full body (or similar) image, image of death. Full body image rendered, if possible and it looks nice. And anything else I mentioned earlier. If you can't remember them, trust your judgement, padawan. :P So, yep, this shouldn't be too challenging for you. Have fun, Apprentice. :) Oh, also – No time limit, and commissioning others for work is fine, as long as you really can't do it yourself – i.e, If you don't have the resources to take images from the game, or render any images, asking Vatsy, or someone else awesome is perfectly allowed. AREA OF FOCUS: Formatting, Forward Planning DIFFICULTY RATE:' 3 or 4/10 – Thinking about the best way to do this before you really start will help. Apprentice's To Do Fix links at the project page (yay! Brownie points :3) Standardise text: Painter The Doctor The Preacher The Farmer The Condottorio The Merchant The Nobleman The Priest The Captain Guard Full body image (rendered?): Painter The Doctor The Preacher The Farmer The Condottorio The Merchant The Nobleman The Priest The Captain Guard Final moment image: Painter The Doctor The Preacher The Farmer The Condottorio The Merchant The Nobleman The Priest The Captain Guard Optional: Think of a way to make the pages more accessible : Redirects around the page have been deleted, each page is now called "name", except for the ones that have a double. They're called "Name (Savonarola's lieutenant)" *no "The" is included in any name* Results First thing for me to say is "Well done!". So, here - Well done! :) You did everything I asked of you, and you did it with style. :) There are some formatting issues in the "Final Words" sections, but it's all cool, I'll take a look later and see what, if anything, can be done. You also missed out the speech marks in some of the speeches, and for the Priest, you forgot to italicize it. That's all the critizism there is to give, if you can even call it critizism. xD So that, my girl, is a pass, with flying colours. Good job! :D That really is all I can say. Well done, Recluta.

Project 2: Behind the Scenes

Project 2

Well, you know all about this one. Should be a breeze – mainly repetitive stuff, blah blah blah. So, outline of the task: Create pages on the production team of the Assassin's Creed Series. This one is courtesy of Kaloneous, as I'm an uncreative bastard. So, here's your wonderful list of pages... Concept artists Vincent Gauthier Patrick Lambert Nicolas Collings Justin Reed Need an image!!! Grzegorz Domaradzki aka Gabz (Freelance) — If possible – He's new, and freelance so there may not be much info. Patrick Brown (Freelance) — If possible – He's new, and freelance so there may not be much info. Turns out he only does fan-art. This, I wasn't aware of. Brand Team Damien Kieken (Game Director) Etienne Allonier (Brand Director) Carl Caldareri (International Brand Manager) Matt Zagurak (Senior International Product Manager at Ubisoft) Maria Loreto (International Product Manager) Jean Guesdon (Brand Content Manager, and member of the team that ensures all AC franchises are in line with the core AC story.) Aymar Azaizia (production manager) Level Designers Pascal Theriault (Senior Level Designer at Ubisoft) Bjorn Swenson (Single player level designer – Part of Falko Poiker’s team.) Sasha Boutin (Lead single player level designer – Part of Alexandre Breault’s team.) Aldo Sampaio (Audio director – in-game audio effects.) Simon Lacoste (Character designer and Modeller) Encyclopedia Team Julien Cuny (Producer behind the Encyclopedia) Richard Farrese (Writer and Editor on the Encyclopedia team.) Aaaaaaand... Digic Studios (worked on the E3 Trailer and promotion TV advertisements) Okay, I guess I'm done. All pages created, and all of them have a picture (except for Justin Reed, who doesn't seem to have any). Sources for info: IMDB, MobyGames, GiantBomb, Linkedin and many others which I'm sure you'll be able to find. You could also simply Google their names. :) I realise there are quite a lot of names there, but as there's no timelimit, they're all for you. ;) Don't forget how to use your Apprentice revamp template, and all that funky jazz. This project might also be a good time to become familiar with {{WP-REAL}}, if you aren't already, and if articles exist on Wikipedia for these people – I haven't checked that, so consider it part of the assignment. :P Use :Category:Development Team|some of Kaloneous' Dev team articles to help you out, etc. As I said, should be a breeze. Any problems, and you know where to find me. Have fun, recruta! Elchzard (Talking is fun.) 02:02, September 9, 2011 (UTC)

Project 3: Expanding the Brotherhood

Project 3

Alright, this shouldn't be too much effort for you either, seeing as you are already familiar with the manual of style. Basically I want you to create several different articles about subjects from the Brotherhood novel. NOTE: the list that I have created here is not final, and I will presumably add more in the future. Characters Baldassare Castiglione Pietro Bembo Bruno Vannozza dei Cattanei Giulia Farnese Charlotte d'Albret Camilla Gaspar Torella Johann Burchard Toffana Pius III Ascanio Sforza Any other character you feel like making a page for. Events Search for Cesare Borgia (details about this one will be given via the IRC) Attack on Valencia Locations Zagarolo I don't think this is going to be that much trouble for you. If you have problems with anything, you can find me on the IRC. There's no rush in it either, you can take as long as you want. -- Master Sima Yi 15:12, September 26, 2011 (UTC)

Project 4: The Scientist

Project 4

Your next assignment will involve making and revamping articles related to the Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy packs, primarily the Divine Science pack. The list of articles is as follows: Kyros of Zarax - source. Pythagoras - source. Samos - source. (Added this one myself, hope you don't mind) Croton - source. Milo - source. Alcmaeon - source. Damo - source. Myia - source. Arcadia - source. Aphrodite - source. Atalanta - source. Rudolf II - source. Edward Kelley - source. The Book - source. Hermeticists - source. William Robert Woodman - source. Frater V.O.V. - source. (Just see what you do with this one, I will help you if need be.) Charles II of England - source. Oliver Cromwell - source. George Monck - source. Vanessa - source. Robert Getas - source. Edmund Bailey O'Callaghan - source. Montréal - source. Pasadena - source. This list might expand later on. For now, I think you will have enough work to do. Like your former assignment, there is no time limit, so take as long as you want. -- Master Sima Yi 07:33, October 10, 2011 (UTC)

Project 5: Cartography

Project 5

Alright, so, I'm all out of ideas and I'll just have you work with me on revamping a fuckload of locations. :) To be honest, I don't really have any clear idea of what I'm going to do myself, so I will keep updating this list once I think of something. I will also tell you what information will need to be on the articles so it gives you a more clear concept of what the pages will be about. United States George Washington bringing an Apple to US, assassination of John Wilkes Booth, Philadelphia Project, DIA satellite accident, birthplace of Desmond, Lucy etc, events of The Fall, 2012 Assassin team in Denver England Aiding King Henry VII, assassination of Queen Mary I, rule of Elizabeth I, British Civil War, Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, mention Winston Churchill and Margaret Thatcher India Aiding the Calicut Assassins Guild, assassination of Mahatma Gandhi Switzerland Home of Bombastus and Maria Amiel (Basel), birthplace of Moina Mathers Greece Kyros and Pythagoras, Assassin-Templar war on Rhodes, possibly more to come France Revamp: keep the current info on (if you can re-word it better, go ahead), slight summary of the events in Lugdunum (which is modern-day Lyon), mention Napoleon's obtaining of an Apple, mention Samuel Liddell Mathers's visit to Paris Germany The Alamans in what would later be known as Germany (Alamania), Lukas Zurburg's activities in Essen, Ezio aiding in Cologne, World War II Italy Polo Brothers, founding of House of Auditore, AC2, ACB, PL Info is there, just need to rewrite most of it. Spain Add the AC2D info Cologne In-depth info Renaissance Vienna In-depth info Renaissance Calicut In- depth info Renaissance Egypt Ankh, Alexandria Lisbon Add PL info Moscow Add PL info Barcelona Add PL info Portugal (?) To be created, PL --> Calicut + Lisbon (if necessary) More will most likely come, including a couple of revamps. But for now, I think you will be quite busy with these. ;) -- Master Sima Yi 19:18, October 23, 2011 (UTC)

Project 6: Spanish Discovery

Project 6

Alright, our Assassin's Creed II: Discovery pages are in quite a bad shape, and you played the game, so you can help us out with it. The following pages need to be revamped, and if you think I left anything out, feel free to add it: Luis de Santángel Christoffa Corombo Raphael Sánchez Tomás de Torquemada Isabella I of Castile Gaspar Martinez Pedro Llorente Juan de Marillo Muhammad XII Barcelona (If you could also add more info from the Contracts from Barcelona to this, that'd be greatly appreciated.) Zaragoza Granada Alhambra (Also make a mention of this being a multiplayer map - in an in-universe context, of course.) As usual, no time limit attached. Good luck! -- Master Sima Yi 12:57, November 11, 2011 (UTC)

Project 7: ...Just random stuff

Project 7

Okay, here is your assignment finally. I'm having a big headache, so I will update this later on... This project will consists of stuff from the Revelations novel and some other things that need editing. ;) Revelations novel Ma'Mun Al-Scarab Domenico Garofoli Bekir Nazar Other stuff Basilisk Hamid Kadar Altaïr's library Alexander of Limassol Armand Bouchart Rodrigo Borgia -> Featured Status The Codex's journey (also get rid of the vague section titles) FA Warren Vidic Rebecca Crane Al Mualim Rodrigo Borgia No time limit. -- Master Sima Yi 14:59, December 15, 2011 (UTC)

Minor Tasks

Project 1: La città dei fiori

Minor Project 1

Details transported via IRC. Essentially offers something to work on if Main Assignment 1 is finished before I return from my short absence. Involves general revamp of Damascus page. Results Mmm, fairly nice. Still can be better, but you got it mainly matching the MoS, and added a fair amount of information. One thing I'm gonna pick you up on is the lack of Era icons - nothing major, but it does add something to an article like that. Annnnd, I think that's about it. You could have done more, but you did what I asked - Well done. :) Elchzard (Talking is fun.) 00:53, September 1, 2011 (UTC)
