It's in need of cleanup, beacuse it's written like a walkthrough - mission articles are supposed to just describe; who gives the mission, what happens during the mission, and what the reward is. There's also the extensive use of 'you', which should, instead, be 'the player' or 'Niko'. I do agree that it's clear and easy to read, but I'm merely following GTA Wiki's Policy
Just a note that while I agree that cleanup is definitely needed for the word "you"; a walkthrough is fine as long as the instructions are neutral. For example, Drive to the safehouse, pick up Roman, Drive to the airport, catch a plane to Anywhere City, etc, however it is good (in my opinion) to just have a "walkthrough" section and have the brief that says In this mission Niko and Roman catch a plane to Anywhere City.
