''(reset indent)'' As D9328 mentioned, there's very little info on John's life ''outside'' of his military career, so I'm questioning if "Military career of John-117" would be the best option for the detailed side article. What if there was just one detailed biography under a title like "Biography of John-117"? This would also make it easier to use the same format for other pages and consequently, keep track other such pages should they become necessary later on (a category for them would be useful as well). I'm aware an overall biography page would also run into the issue of being extremely long, but at least users would know what they were in for (unlike here, where the length and level of detail makes reading the biography an intimidating task; someone looking to learn more about John's life doesn't necessarily need to know what exact type of weapon and number of magazines he was carrying at any given time). --[[User:Tacitus|Tacitus]] ([[User talk:Tacitus|talk]]) 06:24, 7 February 2019 (EST) | ''(reset indent)'' As D9328 mentioned, there's very little info on John's life ''outside'' of his military career, so I'm questioning if "Military career of John-117" would be the best option for the detailed side article.

:No issues with a biography page. We could place it as a subpage (i.e. John-117/Biography), just like how we manage with the weapons and levels articles (e.g. the gameplay/walkthrough content have been moved to their respective weapons and levels articles' subpage). We could also insert a header/banner at the top of the page to inform readers that it is a biographical article and that the encyclopedic version is available in a given link. This would be a fine addition to our Layout | :No issues with a biography page.
