As to someone who is very familiar with the Resident Evil series, I feel like Rebecca is pretty much on borderline when it comes to notability. I was hesitating about this article and asked Piotrus. [1] is the only sigcov, while this one [2] just only states that the creator hates her. Others were just listicles/rankings and passing mentions. I couldn't find even more sources per WP:BEFORE. I know this is GA, but I don't think this one passes unlike Barry Burton. I do promise that I will bring this article back from the dead after the rumored Resident Evil Zero remake is dropped. I want your opinions about this if this should be kept or merged. No hard feelings! Thanks! 🍕BP!🍕 (🔔) 02:52, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

• Comment. Having looked at the sources that mention her in their headings, in addition to the SyFy source linked above, only [3] from TheGamer can be argued to be SIGCOV-meeting, but it is also a crappy listicle. So yes, this is very borderline, GNG-wise. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 03:44, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to List of Resident Evil characters. Given the nominator's extensive history with Resident Evil characters (Nice job with all the FAs, btw), I trust they have done adequate research and a BEFORE on the character, and the current sources seem largely trivial. The few non-trivial sources, as well as what conception info exists, can be merged to the character's entry on the list as an AtD.

• Merge The WP:SIGCOV does not seem to be there. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:23, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Merge per all. User:Boneless_Pizza! has been doing a lot to improve this topic area and I agree with that most of the reception is built from WP:TRIVIALMENTIONs. Merge is an WP:ATD that leaves the door open should we find something better than a listicle, after a future game maybe. Shooterwalker (talk) 16:30, 27 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
