Another minor character clearly fails WP:GNG. Despite being written long, sources were mostly from trivia mentions. Also at reception section, those were full of passing mentions and some listicles, thus showing zero WP:SIGCOV. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 13:27, 19 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per nom.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 23:12, 23 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to Art of Fighting#Characters, does not demonstrate standalone notability. When it was created, ~~no effort was made to demonstrate notability whatsoever.~~ it lacked secondary sources. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 22:17, 28 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Can you not word it that way Zx? There was a clear attempt to find sources by whoever wrote it, but standards have improved and things are different. I reckon you wouldn't care for someone saying that about something you built based off what was seen as the standard to do things at the time. And it's not the first time you've commented like that (i.e. saying an article was more suitable for Fandom's site and had zero effort).--Kung Fu Man (talk) 00:33, 29 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Art of Fighting#Characters per nom. While the "Reception" section looks lengthy with a multitude of sources, actually looking into it shows that these sources are extremely trivial (oftentimes a single sentence) mentions of the character, generally in the context of an overall review/overview of the games he appeared in.

Merge per all, as an alternative to deletion. The sources are pretty thin but can be preserved in some form. Shooterwalker (talk) 01:52, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
