To be honest, as much as we may be annoyed with the lack of professionalism both reference To indulge this side-track, while that may certainly be the case I think it best to acknowledge this on Darius' and Iltani's respective articles, since the Persian and Babylonian Brotherhoods do not have any further information and could only cause the confusion that there were Assassins in the official sense before Origins. I propose we delete those articles, and keep the information on the characters' pages, to avoid any confusion in other articles and in categories. In the case of the Chinese Brotherhood it's fine, because the article already exists and we could make note of a precursor group exisiting there.

To get back on-topic, I take it there is no opposition to doing what I propose regarding the French comics from you two then? I don't agree with deleting the Persian Brotherhood article because Salah Bey is mentioned in Rogue. Although one user did dispute that it's never confirmed he was an Assassin, he was appealing to ignorance when he said that this proves he wasn't one, and the fact he calls his comrades Brothers, conducted an assassination of such a critical figure as Nader Shah, were on a mission to recover such a critical artifact as the Koh-i-Noor, and were in contact with an Assassin such as Achilles makes it more likely that he was an Assassin than not.

I'm on the fence about deleting the article on the Babylonian Brotherhood just because I think if we're strict with sourcing, "Babylonian Brotherhood" would be the stand-in name for the "Order" that Iltani belonged to (albeit we would be free to remove "of Assassins" because that isn't part of the sourced name) even if it wasn't called that at the time. That is, we know Iltani belonged to an "Order", and the sourced name we have for that is "Babylonian Brotherhood" even if it is most likely retroactively applied by later Assassins. The only trouble for that is potential confusion.
