hey, just a heads up, if you plan on removing the introdcution header and replacing it with the ingame descr. header on every aero, be aware that every single aero/weapon page on this wiki uses some variation on the standard Intro-Overview/Usage/Pilot's Corner/Trivia format. There isnt much harm in deviating from this i suppose, but there is still an established de-facto style format on this wiki to which we try to adhere. I also dont really see the point in posting the ingame descr, since that's the one full bit of info that is vounteered by the game upfront, but i guess there's no real harm there either...

But something i noticed is your brevity edits. The purpose of *previous* brevity edits was to make sentence tructure more succinct, not to cut down on as much info as possible. The KONDOR page has, for example, already been chainsawed down to nearly half of its original size, so changing "some pilots have taken to using it as a heavy fighter" to "it can function as a heavy fighter" is just bordering on the pedantic, and the end product reads more dryly as a resut.

The wiki has had a pretty tiny editing "staff" for a long time now, so while it's good to see new people contributing, let's try not to step on eachother's toes with our edits to much. Try to avoid compromising the original flavor of the text with re-edits as much as possible; people come here to read about their favorite planes, not to read a robotic textbook exerpt, so there's no harm in having a modest amount of "wordiness" on a page. I dont mean to sound gatekeep-ey, just try to avoid changing a page unless the info on it is misleading, outdated, incorrect or misspelled.

that said, the new-ish Pilot's Corner header on some pages was made so that some slightly more opinionated points could be drawn up about topics, so feel free to add any pointers you'd like. Again, if someone's here, they're not here to read up on a plane as quickly as possible then ditch, so brevity, while important, is not a #1 sacred rule.
