Another pointless article[edit]

Just like Malenia's, Radahn's article is even worse. Literally nothing about the design of his boss fight and the whole page feels like it's deditcated to just praising him. I personally don't think Elden Ring bosses deserve to have their own articles due to lack of information. 2A00:1851:8017:FC37:3007:B90A:6E48:7C3E (talk) 22:34, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

A lack of information doesn't dictate the notability of the subject. While it's a highly valuable aspect that should be strived for in an article, if it simply doesn't exist, it shouldn't stop the subject from meeting the general notability guideline. If this information does exist and isn't here, it can simply be added to the article. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 22:45, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The character does not have enough notability to warrant its own article. The "creation" section is not well-detailed and does not explain how the character was developed. The reception section needs to be trimmed as well. If this article doesn't improve within the next few days then I would suggest creating a List of Elden Ring characters article and merge Radahn's page with it.

Conception and design information is not required for subject notability. If sources don't exist to cover it, then it shouldn't impact subject notability. If this was Reception I would agree, but conception and design info, while wanted, is not a necessity for keeping character articles around. Has one ever considered Magneton?

Should this just be Radahn after the DLC?[edit]

Not something I feel needs a requested move, but it feels like the cleanest route and the most common name for the character. Kung Fu Man (talk) 21:30, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
