I'm no good at telling what should or shouldn't be in a story section but I'm wondering: does the story section for KHUX and 358/2 Days on this page really need to be as long as it is? - [[User:JTD95|JTD95]] ([[User talk:JTD95|talk]]) 10:26, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

:So, the scope of the wiki is basically: every scene should be ''summarized'' to communicate the purpose of the scene.
:A ''lot'' of this is script regurgitation, though. Ex:
::Player makes contact with Jafar, who sends them out in search of a fragment of the golden scarab. After retrieving it, Player and Chirithy wait to meet Jafar in the desert, where Chirithy voices his distrust of Jafar and wonders if they should have told Aladdin before getting involved with him. When Jafar arrives, he unites the two fragments and follows the flying the golden scarab to the Cave of Wonders. Jafar orders Player to fetch the lamp from within, but before they can, the Cave of Wonders Guardian iterates that only the "diamond in the rough" may enter, casting Player out into the desert in the process. Iago collects the fragments and expresses his frustrations, while Jafar encourages patience as they prepare to seek out the "diamond in the rough". With Chirithy proven right, Player decides to check in on Aladdin.
:Turn this to:
::The Player encounters Jafar, who sends them to search for a piece of the [[golden scarab]]. Once it's found, the Player meets Jafar in the desert, despite Chirithy's misgivings, where they use the scarab to locate the [[Cave of Wonders]]. However, the Player is not able to retrieve the lamp for Jafar from within the cave, as it will only accept entry by the "diamond in the rough". Jafar and Iago return to Agrabah with the scarab to search for the proper chump, while the Player goes to check on Aladdin.
:"diamond in the rough" would not be script regurgitation here, as that specific phrasing is an important plot point that is remarked upon multiple times.
:This:
::Aladdin encounters a disguised Jasmine being attacked by Bandits. Aladdin and Abu save Jasmine, but the Bandits keep pursuing her and force them to retreat. Meanwhile, Jafar and Iago utilize the Sands of Time to discern the identity of the "diamond in the rough", which is revealed to be Aladdin. Once safe, Aladdin brings Jasmine to his home and shows her his view of the palace. When Jasmine seems disinterested, he asks where Jasmine comes from, but she evades the question and tells him that her father is forcing her to get married. Just then, the Guards find Aladdin and apprehend him, prompting Jasmine to reveal herself as the princess and order for Aladdin's release. However, the Guards inform her that their orders come from Jafar, and Jasmine must speak with him about Aladdin's release.
:could become:
::Meanwhile, Aladdin has run into a disguised Jasmine, and helps her escape from a pack of [[Bandit]]s back to his house. Jafar and Iago magically observe the rescue, identifying Aladdin as the patsy they need. The palace guards interrupt as Aladdin and Jasmine are getting to know each other, having been sent by Jafar to arrest Aladdin, and in the clamor Aladdin discovers that Jasmine is the kingdom's princess.
:I don't recall if "Sands of Time" is actually mentioned in KHUX, so I left that out. If it is, mention it.
::Honestly, the KHUX section is almost a straight retread of the movie, so the wikipedia article on the movie could be used as a helpful guide to trimming this up.{{User:KrytenKoro/Sig}} 15:29, 18 March 2019 (UTC)
