Talk:Characters of Final Fantasy VIII#Proposed merge with Rinoa Heartilly

As discussed at Talk:Rinoa Heartilly, I started to attempt this merge myself, but since this character list is an FA, it might be better for someone more familiar with the series to do it. I can certainly help with paring down any section as needed, but the core idea (as stated above on this talk page in 2009) is that Rinoa is not the subject of independent coverage—she's either in lists or covered within a set/cast of characters, so she should be covered as one within a character list. czar 20:18, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

• Merge - Her notability is more than covered by the featured article on the Characters of Final Fantasy VIII, and any relevant points not merged can be added with minimal expansion of the parent article. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 21:11, 6 February 2016 (UTC)

As per this and the other discussion, merged it myself. --PresN 16:30, 16 February 2016 (UTC)

The blurb is at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/February 11, 2019. I can't find a usable image of Nomura, so I'm going with Yoshinori Kitase, the game director, who worked with him on the characters ... anyone have a better image to use? If anyone wants to contact Tetsuya Nomura to try to get a free image, that would be great. - Dank (push to talk) 16:49, 29 January 2019 (UTC)
