Both the main page and the Characters page claim that the Terminal is based off of Shadowlord Nier's personality, such as:
"The Terminal's female avatars were created using the stolen data on Project Gestalt, which includes the Shadowlord's data. Meaning they are clones of Nier."
It's a pretty big leap from "The network appropriated Project Gestalt files," which we see in the game, to "the Red Girl is a clone of Nier," which is neither in the Archives nor in any of the dialogue (and it acts/sounds absolutely nothing like him in any way, plus it contradicts concepts and plot points presented by the narrative.) Unless this is directly stated by external sources, like a novella or an artbook, please state where exactly the game itself makes this connection, as it sounds very much like massive Fan Wank and should be removed from the respective pages.

You can remove it if you feel like. I had put it down because one of their other names was N2, which is likely based on Nier's name and the fact there are two of them. Also it's not based on humanities personality, but their genetic data. That is what was preserved in the servers and what N2 had based on. The machines network developed her based on humanity but N2 was no more human than the androids despite being the "ghost of humanity". At least until Pod 042 caused them to turn on each other because they had become more human than before.

Can someone change the namespace of the work page NieR: Automata to the correctly named NieR: Automata? I don't know how.
