# Talk:Arataki Itto

As stated in the GA review, I will first have to perform a source assessment due to the heavy use of Valnet sources. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 12:08, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

Considering that the notability of video games (and their characters, levels, etc.) is checked whether they have garnered enough reception, I have only checked references from the reception section. This template limits only 10 references. Even if I was able to include more, they'd mostly be Screen Rant references which do not count to notability. Pinging @Gommeh: to hear their thoughts.

Siliconera, Polygon and Kotaku are the strongest sources that discuss Itto, and they are the WP:THREE that best meet WP:RS, WP:SIGCOV, etc. You may include the PC Gamer source there too, optionally. I am personally satisfied that Itto meets GNG. Some of the Screen Rant sources are used elsewhere in the article to cite other things such as plot points and they also just happen to have some analysis/opinion from the author, so I see no harm in citing them.

Additionally, there is a decent amount of discussion of Itto's character at https://www.gamesradar.com/new-genshin-impact-character-arataki-itto-isnt-even-out-but-already-breaking-records/
Unrelated - thanks for pointing out that there was a dead link in one of the other sources - this has been fixed. Gommeh 📖   🎮 14:00, 14 November 2025 (UTC)
OK, this looks good to me then. I'll proceed with the GA review later this day. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 14:09, 14 November 2025 (UTC)

Not a review, but the image should not be the character's actor per WP:DYKDIVERT. ミラP@Miraclepine 22:35, 21 November 2025 (UTC)
