Some more thoughts:
Extent of real world info: Unless it's behind-the-scenes stuff, I say keep it limited beyond what is necessary. Ex. in the deleted pgs on the "military dictatorship of Argentina/Chile", the OP went all out filling the Event infobox with Wikipedia links so that one needed to scroll down to read it, even though the AC-relevant info was no more than a short paragraph, and circumstantial evidence at that.

Citations: I thought we already had a format? Cite things with [Game/Book] – [Memory/Chapter], with [DLC] – [Memory] as needed, unless an event doesn't have a genetic memory like "Shay unlocked the Templar armor", in which case it's just [Game]. Any IRL info, use Wikipedia or the {{cite web}} template.

Rifts/Glyphs: I think the Glyphs page is done, but I had added the Update template to Rifts because of ACU's Rift missions (Belle Époque – Training, Belle Époque – Data Harvest, Belle Époque – Tornado, Occupied Paris – Covert, Occupied Paris – Data Harvest, Occupied Paris – Tower, Medieval – Battlefield, and Medieval – Quarry. The only one with a page is Fin de Siecle) and the Helix Rift Events in AC Reb, both of which are very different from the anomalies Desmond found containing puzzles. As far as I can tell, ACU's Helix missions have the same gameplay dialogue except for the intro/outro lines and any objectives like "Rescue our agent", "This simulation is unstable; finish the mission ASAP", etc.

Flags: This is tricky. I don't think we need flags/coat of arms for places which don't appear in AC, but not including it if, for ex, Mali was in a battle mentioned in AC would also look inconsistent if the other belligerents did have flags.

On This Day: I really like this idea and think we should give it a go if we've the personnel to run it.

Logo: The Wiki has a logo? I thought we just used the Assassin's insignia of whatever the newest game was. Thoth sounds nice, but what are the other suggestions? (btw, will the background/theme be changed from ACOD to reflect ACV's release? Unless Staff simply haven't got around to it yet.)
