A couple of pointers from me regarding this perfect mission. Most of it really is great.

  1. Instead of "quick walkthrough", I'd call it "mission brief" or "mission outline", which explains the mission. Theres no such thing as a quick walkthrough, it either walks you through it completely or not.
  2. If the main walkthrough is long (more than an average screenful) then it should go into a subpage too.
  3. Move the transcript to a subpage, since it is so long. I always use: User:Biggest_gta_fan_ever/Perfect_Mission/Transcript
  4. Leave external links till the end - after "see also" but before mission sequence
  5. In the external links, i'd do it like this: mission video (IGN.com) - because this actually links to the video (which is the important thing), and mentions which site it is at (brackets option). Your idea of using bold also works, but I would bold "video" or "guide" or whatever, instead of the mission name.
  6. We can actually embed trailers into articles, instead of having to link to them. Use the code: <youtube>Z2KNGRVwZaU</youtube>. If there is more than one video, make a subpage instead. Don't forget to also have a link to the youtube page as well, just in case the embedded video doesn't work.
