Felicia (Darkstalkers): Felicia is a very recognizable character.  One of the most recognizable ones from the Darkstalkers franchise, alongside Morrigan.  However, recognizable does not equate to *discussion*.  Even the recently added academic article added has nothing to do with Felicia, but commentary on cosplay in regards to decency laws, and not an examination of Felicia in those regards (Hell even by the article's own admission the cosplay was changed from the character's appearance).  Sadly...you can only say "Felicia is mostly naked" so many times.  That alone doesn't merit an article.  C. Viper was compared to a King of Fighters character in terms of design by a massive number of publications...and just that.  And that didn't survive an AfD.  Multiple Dead or Alive female characters also had some variation of "they're sexy" as the crux of their whole article, and they also didn't pass notability standards.  I would really like Felicia to have something, but after extensive searching...all we have is "she's mostly naked and sexy for it" and "she's one of the most recognizable of the lot because she gets reused a lot".  That's not a base to build around when all the commentary is the same.

Kung Fu Man ( talk ) 03:00, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to List of Darkstalkers characters .  Whilst I disagree with a sudden unilateral redirect, I'd agree that Felicia isn't independently notable; reception has been very puffed-up.  I am open to re-evaluating my stance if very good sources are found.  ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ ) 04:18, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge and redirect .  While I oppose bold redirect for such cases, sadly, my BEFORE fails to find anything outside the passing mention ina master thesis that I've added and a rewritten press releases about a comic [45] .  The current reception reads nice but I can't find a single source that meets WP:SIGCOV .  Ping me if you do.  PS.  I checked ja and zh articles and they are even worse than ours (ja is a game guide, and zh is a stub).  -- Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus | reply here 07:42, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Note:  This discussion has been included in the list of Anime and manga-related deletion discussions .

Pokelego999 ( talk ) 21:32, 19 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge per all.  I don't find enough WP:SIGCOV for a separate article.  Shooterwalker ( talk ) 21:51, 24 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.  Relisting comment: I'm relisting this discussion as List of Darkstalkers characters , the proposed Merge target, is also up for a AFD deletion discussion.  Please add new comments below this notice.  Thanks, L iz Read!  Talk!  03:19, 26 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] If not List of Darkstalkers characters , then merge to Darkstalkers#Characters .  Greenish Pickle!  ( 🔔 ) 09:07, 26 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Comment I agree with Greenish Pickle.  If the merge target isn't kept, then this can be included at the main article.  Shooterwalker ( talk ) 02:15, 27 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] Merge to List of Darkstalkers characters preferably, or if the list is deleted merge to Darkstalkers .  Not enough secondary coverage for an in-depth character article.  Rjj iii ( talk ) 21:12, 30 March 2024 (UTC) [ reply ] The above discussion is preserved as an archive of the debate.
