Source analysis from reception: Of all sources that have been used, Gizmodo [1] is the only sigcov here. [2] Passing mention. [3] A trivia coverage from a listicle. [4] trivia coverage. [5] just a passing mention of Juhani being a lesbian character and can have lesbian relationship with trivia coverage [6] passing mention [7] listicle [8] just talked about her being created as a lesbian and the romance, a bit useful but this and Gizmodo isn't enough to pass the notability threshold. The rest of the sources that I didn't mention aren't reliable/situational and cannot help WP:GNG. 🍕Boneless Pizza!🍕 (🔔) 10:49, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to the character list. The reception consists of trivial mentions with no indication of standalone notability at all. Simply being a milestone for something is not enough to merit a page, unfortunately. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:22, 21 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The character's milestone status does seem to have gotten her some attention from outside the normal fan-coverage sources, however. Whether it's sufficiently significant coverage, I'm a terrible judge. But see: Dym, Brianna (2019). "The burden of queer love". Press Start. 5 (1): 19–35. (pp. 24-26 in particular) and Shaw, Adrienne; Friesem, Elizaveta (2016). "Where is the queerness in games?: Types of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer content in digital games". International Journal of Communication. 10: 3877–3889. (admittedly, only one paragraph on p. 3883 but includes context and analysis outside the first game). Snippet view (and Google Scholar) suggest there might be some discussion of the character in chapter 8 of this Routledge-published book, but I don't have immediate access and my library doesn't have a copy handy.

Redirect There are only passing mentions of this in reliable sources. It isn't enough to pass the notability threshold. Jontesta (talk) 03:17, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - The character's apparent status as the first LGBT SW character is certainly notable, and sources used in the article like The Advocate [9], Out.com [10], TheWrap [11] and Polygon [12] are reliable.— TAnthony^Talk 16:43, 29 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Weak merge to Characters of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series. While I do understand there's *reaction* to her status as a LGBT character, that alone doesn't particularly feel as notable when there's not a lot of discussion about it to warrant observing her as a character. I feel that's a significant factor her we need to consider.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:45, 30 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: Still no consensus. And, as I said, specify a target article, by linking to the desired page, do not say things like "merge to the character list". Name the specific article. The closer probably doesn't know Star Wars and you don't want them guessing where content should be merged.

Merge to Characters of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series, per Kung Fu Man. I see some coverage, but not enough to rise to WP:SIGCOV. There is a valid merge target, per WP:ATD. Shooterwalker (talk) 00:32, 7 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Characters of the Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic series per Kung Fu Man and Shooterwalker. MKsLifeInANutshell (talk) 14:06, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
