Article shows no evidence of SIGCOV and has been tagged for notability concerns since December 2022 with no effort to improve or address these concerns. Cited reception does not provide notability for the character either. Additionally similar concerns were brought up in a previous AfD in regards to this character under a different name, as can be seen at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Simon "Ghost" Riley, with a vote of redirect at the time.

- Redirect to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. It does have unreliable citations which needed a better source, but they're unavailable. CastJared ( talk) 03:30, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
- Redirect to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. Again. As with 2012 there doesn't seem to be evidence the GNG is being passed, and what coverage is there is more about the game in general than the character. It seems like every tiny mention from anywhere has been added, but Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 03:31, 31 May 2023 (UTC)

- Comment. While the article is a bit shaky as a standalone, per the discussion ~6 months ago, I strongly suspect some sort of
List of Call of Duty characters article is viable, and if that is ever made, then that would be a better place to redirect. There is enough content here for at least a solid section of a list article.

- @ SnowFire: I definitely agree, but, obviously, it would require someone to make one. (And make it decent enough to not just be WP:ALLPLOT). ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ ( ᴛ) 23:34, 31 May 2023 (UTC)
- Comment: I figured that regardless of how written this article is, the current amount of sourcing is probably insufficient enough for a standalone article at the moment. Still, in the occasion that this character receives a substantial uptick in media attention and reliable sourcing in a future COD installment, what's the best way to propose another article? Should I restore and rewrite this in a draft once again?

- To save any wasted time writing a potentially non-notable article, I think the best option is to post on the talk page of the game he appears in with the new sources. Then you can gather consensus on whether the sources are enough to form an article again.

- You can always put together a reception section or even a full article on a subpage and then hit someone up to see if it's enough if you're not sure. Honestly though after twelve years I don't think he will. Price feels like he's a better character out of the current COD articles to put effort into.-- Kung Fu Man ( talk) 05:49, 1 June 2023 (UTC)
