Overview of mission article flow
Initial briefings (Beginning)
These three are almost always present in any mission article.
- Mission Briefing (including response(s))
- Mission Acceptance (including response(s)
- Unnecessary Solicitation, These almost never have a response, but if one is given, it should be documented. The Unnecessary Solicitation is preceded by a header containing the primary objective if it is a multi-part mission. It is not preceded by a header if the primary objective doesn't change.
Objectives, enemies, NPCs, NPC dialogue... (Middle)
- Mission objectives. These use the ({{Mission Objective}}) template.
- Enemies. These use the ({{Enemy Link}} template for most enemy groups. One off groups use the {{Enemy Group}}) template.
- Notable NPCs. these are all named enemies, any allies/hostages, any NPCs pertinent to mission objectives or story arc, and any NPCs with important dialogue.
- NPC dialogue and briefings, notes etc. {{NPC Text}}/{{Cutscene}}/{{Mission Briefing}}/{{divbox}} (captions, important notes, etc)
- Mission clues. These use {{Mission Clue}}. This may also be used at other parts of the mission documentation if it provides necessary information to continue; such as a clue about a weapon given during the briefing, or a clue about a piece of paper given at the end of a debriefing, etc)
