In Acepedia's past, there has been far too much focus on the idea that this wikia is responsible for hosting information that the aviation enthusiast community is interested in, including an aircraft's development history, carrier-borne status, and the like.

A very recent example I can give you is the article on the FB-22 Concept. If you click that link, you will see the most recent version of the article which was published on November 10. Click here for the page as of October 27, 2014. Notice the differences; the page used to host information on the Joint Strike Fighter program, the origins of the FB-22's development. While this may be interesting, this makes absolutely no difference to the games that the aircraft was featured in. However, for people who are interested in such details, there is the Wikipedia icon at the top-right of the article. Clicking this will send the user to the Wikipedia article related to the Acepedia article.

This is an Ace Combat wikia, and nothing more. Period, end of sentence. If you want to host a wikia for the aviation enthusiast community, do so by either editing a currently-existing wikia - such as the Aircraft Wiki - or create your own. I have yet to see a really well-put-together wikia containing a repository of aircraft and their specifications, so if that's something you want to contribute to, please go ahead. It would really be a sight. But Acepedia is not the place for it.
