Legends or other categories?

Do we count Second Plague as legends or creating a hoax category or something else?Francesco75 (talk) 15:28, June 14, 2020 (UTC)

The best classification I can think of for it is "Assassin conspiracies", but Erudito is Assassin-affiliated, not the Brotherhood. Maybe file under just "Conspiracies"? – Darman (talk) 15:50, June 14, 2020 (UTC)

Also in 2012, Erudito was unaffiliated with the Assassins. "Legends" are more for mythology. Do we (or should we) have a page for "Hoaxes"? Idk if theres anymore pages that fit under that category though. V i l k a T h e W o l f (talk) 23:14, June 14, 2020 (UTC)

We have the frontier tales solves by Ratonhnhaké:ton, the sasquatch, the sea monster, the headless horseman. The Ankh of Eden.Francesco75 (talk) 05:29, June 15, 2020 (UTC)

Hmm but I'm pretty sure the sasquatch, the sea monster, and the Headless Horseman can all count as legends. That's usually what they're referred to as in real-life although that would be because they've never been proven to be hoaxes in real-life. Also in spite of Ratonhnhaké:ton's conclusion that the Headless Horseman is just a man, he only encounters him from afar, and I wonder if Shay fighting him in Rogue can be considered canon. Vilka is right that this Second Plague won't fall under legends though... Do we have other examples? Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 05:44, June 15, 2020 (UTC)

Can the need for a "Hoax" category be justification for an article for "2016 London gas leak" (a hoax)? V i l k a T h e W o l f (talk) 06:19, June 15, 2020 (UTC)

In real life, Crystal Skulls and Die Glocke are considered as paranormal hoaxes.Francesco75 (talk) 06:44, June 15, 2020 (UTC)

But we write our articles with an in-universe perspective no? So in our case, those two would not be considered as hoaxes. XOdeyssusx (talk) 06:50, June 15, 2020 (UTC)

Odey is correct. Those two won't be considered hoaxes within the Assassin's Creed universe. Sol Pacificus^(Cyfiero) 16:11, June 16, 2020 (UTC)
