The Mercenaries Wiki has begun a large, new project. The Contract Overhaul Project aims to set a high standard of information and formatting, and to have organized continuity between contract pages. This project applies to all contracts from Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction and Mercenaries 2: World in Flames, and includes story and optional contracts like challenges.

Layout[]

Please follow the layout below for all contract pages.

Image[]

A screenshot from the contract should be placed at the top of the page with a caption. The preferred size is 300px wide.

Quote[]

A notable quote spoken from someone in the contract should be placed below the image and above a body of text. Use the {{Quote}} template.

Introduction[]

The introduction should be short and only include the basic information on the contract like the contract's name (in bold), the xth contract for what faction and in what game (in italics). The general location and which province in North Korea.

Example: Chokepoint is the eleventh contract for the Chinese and the second for them in the fourth and last quarter of Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction. It takes place at Chongju and its airfield in the Northern Province of North Korea.

NOTE: Do not include an "Introduction" header.
