First, we're not IGN, we're a wiki. Our current purpose is to provide an in-universe educational perspective on the subject, not to advise how best to play the games.

Secondly, any walkthroughs would be very simplistic in nature; unlike games like Tomb Raider (or any other puzzle-based game) wherein one might feasibly find a use for a walkthrough when encountering difficulty with a puzzle, Assassin's Creed's gameplay is not designed like that. "Kill these guards, climb this building, kill some more guards" is fairly easy to understand without an online guide holding your hand.

Why not include some explanatory pages as well as in-universe knowledge? It'd mean more views, and more editors. Many gaming wikis include quest walkthroughs.

You say that quest walkthroughs aren't necessary, and yet refer to IGN. Doesn't the existence of this website, and its AC quest guides, tell you that obviously some people need them? You might not, but others do; I myself have on occasion found myself stuck and come to the wiki, only to find it can't help me.

I understand what you're saying, which is why I think creating new pages rather than adding to current ones would make more sense. But I absolutely believe that they would be a useful edition to this wiki's ever-growing collection of pages.
