Revan: Reception is based on listicles ("chosen by IGN as the 12th greatest Star Wars character") and blog-like churnalism comments ("non-notable chournalist X listed Revan as one of the Star Wars character that she wanted in Soulcalibur, another listed the character as one of his favourite Star Wars video game characters", etc.).  My BEFORE shows little - yes, he appears in titles of some chournalist media, and some toys including LEGO, related to him, got some niche reviews.  My BEFORE shows little - a few passing mentions in scholarly literature that I found do not seem to meet WP:SIGCOV and that do not go beyond the plot summary.  Per WP:ATD-R , I suggest redirecting this entry to either to some list of SW characters of the game he is the main character of ( Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic ).

Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 05:51, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Characters of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series#Revan per nom - the reception and significance of this character is lacking.  ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 06:09, 27 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Keep Revan#Reception has some references.   A quick search reveals more coverage of him: https://www.cbr.com/star-wars-rise-skywalker-revan-canon/ https://www.cbr.com/star-wars-knights-old-republic-revan-trending-twitter/ https://screenrant.com/star-wars-last-jedi-darth-revan-easter-egg/ https://screenrant.com/knights-old-republic-movie-revan-story-adaptation-problem/ https://www.inverse.com/article/39515-star-wars-the-last-jedi-darth-revan-canon-crusaders-kyber-crystal D r e a m Focus 10:32, 29 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge Unless better sources are found.  The ones Dream Focus is tossing up above after honestly more speculative than anything and not really discussing the character.  If anything they can be attributed more to the game than the guy itself.  While I'm not opposed to using Valnet for notability, those are just too weak to do the job. -- Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 21:21, 29 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge per above.  Tumbuka Arch ( talk ) 11:54, 30 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to Characters of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series#Revan .  Sadly, it seems that the sources provided by Dream Focus are mostly run-of-the-mill content farms, and I haven't found any new sources.  Industrial Insect (talk) 19:49, 30 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge per the lack of sourcing outlined in nomination.  The sole keep vote mostly cites sources deemed unreliable or low quality per consensus at WP:VG/S .  What remains isn't enough to construct an article around.  Sergecross73 msg me 22:11, 30 November 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] That list says CBR and Screenrant and Game Rant are listed as "Situational".   No consensus on Inverse (website) .   Revan isn't just a video game character, also has a novel about him named after him, and merchandise for him.  https://screenrant.com/star-wars-darth-revan-kotor-canon/ https://gamerant.com/star-wars-darth-revan/ Deseret News seems like a reliable source.  https://www.deseret.com/entertainment/2021/4/14/22383638/star-wars-fans-darth-revan-twitter I see coverage in places of Star Wars Acolyte which stars Revan.   Some claim Keanu Reeves will play the character.  https://www.imdb.com/news/ni64177221/ D r e a m Focus 00:30, 1 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] CBR is deemed unreliable post 2016 (ownership/policy change).  The "Rants" and Inverse more fall under the "low quality" label.  These Churnalism and content farm type websites aren't a great measure of notability.  Sergecross73 msg me 00:38, 1 December 2023 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge this AFD is actually an excellent study in churnalism.  Some characters become notable beyond the series, but almost all of these lists mention Revan within the series .  That's a textbook example of something that isn't notable outside of the fiction it came from, and belongs in the main article.  The reception of the game can have a note about how a few people liked the character, and that would be the proper way to cover this.
