The Civilopedia Entries for the Leaders and frequently for other things often have stories instead of straight up descriptions of the leaders.
They are well written, as stories I have no problem with them, but they miss the point of the civilopedia, I am not one in any sort of usual case to say don't write stories and before I left the Civ3 stories forum here for the Apolyton one I made a big fuss about how here they had more of a tendency to do a sort of SG list of events with illustrations rather than anything with literary value and I left the NES section of the forum altogether because they just don't even care about stories anymore.
But in this case I would rather see a sort of straight overview of who the leader/hero/whatever is, leaving any sort of storytelling or story-imagining to the player rather than the sort of epic story detailing a brief time in their life that sheds some light on their character. Its kinda a fine line and allow me to make it clear with examples:
Keelyn's life story/description is PERFECT.
Until I saw the DESIGN: Civilizations thread I didn't have any idea what was up with Sabatheil or the Bannor at all and I was sitting at the Civilopedia trying to figure that out for way too long last night. (If I'm totally talking out of my ass and there is no entry for Sabatheil yet then I'm sorry, I can't quite remember, and to be fair I could have checked the entry for the Bannor and I didn't)
There was some pair of leaders, they were elves and they were chicks and their story was about something with them alternating rule of six months. I don't mean any offense to whoever wrote that story, like I said all of the writing is of good quality, but for the purposes of a civilopedia entry, seriously, no.
Right with its ass on that fine line is the story for Charadon (the one with the wolves). I get it, I see what sort of guy he is, what motivates him, the civilopedia entry conveys to me an understanding of who he is, and that is the purpose. It is excellent.
Seriously, I'm not trying to offend anybody.
