given the unique nature of comicbook material we give them leeway on relying a good deal on primary sources it's only when those articles seeks something beyond a c such as ga or fa status that third party sources become imperative now give many of the minor superhero character pages out there are really stubs with little future it's all about where you stand on the inclusionist deletionist philosophy on wikipedia do you give leeway to small interest articles in because we have nearly infinite resources or do you hold everything to the rules personally i lean more toward keeps than deletes except for extreme cases in any case i rictor may pass for ga you can check out a similar character i worked on and moved to ga anole comics that really go there because i trimmed through fch and had a lot of third party sources on some plot lines that involved him and the character's creation the layout for an fa article would probably cut through a lot of character history and focus on publication history it offends some people to see what they consider notable character history cut but if you want an accessible article you have to do it superman arguably has a ton of character history but it's really just distilled down to the basic iconic things that others write about krypton orphan country boy metropolis louis lane lex luther justice league etc i'm trying to find the time to do the same to jean grey i populated her publication history and that means ripping out a lot of that enormous character history section just some musings
