Lacking of WP:SIGCOV. Zero commentary to the both characters. It relies mostly on listicles and passing mentions at the reception section. Some of the source were trivial like this [1]. This source alone [2] is not enough. GlatorNator (ᴛ) 22:47, 23 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Keep I disagree with nom, and do not find the reception references already in the article insufficient to meet GNG. Jclemens (talk) 01:39, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Street Fighter characters. I approached this assuming they were notable, especially given they were unveiled in the 1990s when gaming magazines were a thing, and set out to prove it, but I could not find much significant coverage. While I found this mention in CVG, it has no independent commentary, and solely describes their backstory and moves. One could potentially argue this is SIGCOV, since it discusses them in context of the real life martial art they use. The rest are small mentions within lists; there's not much to go by in terms of proving they are independently notable. It's interesting they inspired the protagonists of Divekick... that can be mentioned in a list. I would heavily debate the fact that they have "zero commentary", but their SIGCOV is insufficient to pass the GNG criteria. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:19, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There's also this in GameFan. But again, literally just description, without opinion. Secondary source "contains analysis, evaluation, interpretation, or synthesis of the facts, evidence, concepts, and ideas taken from primary sources", not just a restatement of them. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 10:09, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Street Fighter characters. Most of the sources are listicles or trivial news updates. No real SIGCOV. QuicoleJR (talk) 15:58, 24 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge per Zxcvbnm. This unfortunately doesn't have enough coverage in reliable sources to support a stand-alone article. Something could be selectively merged per WP:PRESERVE. Shooterwalker (talk) 13:20, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Merge to List of Street Fighter characters per above. // Timothy :: talk 07:20, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
