Replacement pages with merged entries from all Cosmic Era works done in sandboxes. Check the topic for the links. Need feedbacks before replacing the current pages.
Since it is quite a mess with multiple pages covering the same characters, Kira has 3 entries one for each work for example. Should we merge all of them together ? I mean by that : merging the entry of each character in one ? Taking the Kira example: merging his SEED, Destiny and Freedom entry together and doing the same for all others.
I am aware that this will be long tho and organising them will be messy too.

For what it's worth, you can also try asking on the Character Page Cleanup
thread.
The sub-pages need a link bar at the top to get to the other sections. As of now, they're pretty isolated.

So, should we consider creating a character-specific page for Kira Yamato if it's necessary?

According to Main.Character Specific Pages, the byte counter has to be 40,000 bytes before it can be split into a separate page. I'll take a look and see what the total bytes are, using Kira's combined sections from the SEED and SEED Destiny pages.

They all seem to have to do with word/character count, in which case several characters would qualify before Kira, should any entry become large enough. Which so far, none of them are.
I see. Maybe we could try doing a potential character byte check on this thread?
I really don't see the need. Even combining SEED and GSD, Lacus, Rau, Shinn and Durandal all have bigger entries, and you're not suggesting pages for any or all of them.
The only character in the franchise who has their own page is Char, and that was done arbitrarily and without discussion.
Kira is pretty much fine where he is.

Gotcha. I was only curious on which character-specific pages we should create.

Flay's folder has 18,338 bytes total, according to this byte counter.
Kira's SEED folder totals 17,383 bytes and his SEED Destiny folder totals 17,034 bytes. If we combine his folders together, it would bring it to 34,417 bytes.

Which is still a good bit short of 40K after eight years or so. Unless there are significant additions at some point, he's probably fine where he is.
That's understandable.

Is there a reason for the lack of psychic power-related tropes on the character page? I know there's been conflicting word of god on the matter and the term Newtype is never used, but looking at the evidence it's obvious that's what at the very least Rau, Mu, and Prayer are.

What do these psychic powers do? All we see from Rau and Mu is the ability to recognise when one another are near by.
Admittedly, not much. "Enhanced spacial awareness" appears to be a pretty big deal, considering the pilots who have it are all extraordinarily skilled. Prayer is able to communicate psychically, but he's Astray-exclusive. And, as you said, they can all sense the presence of another like them. That's worth at least an Alertness Blink citation, right?
If you put it in, note what it does for them, otherwise people might take it the wrong way.
Uhhhh, why doesn't Rau Le Creuset qualify as a Complete Monster?

He's a clone created by a man who subsequently abused him, leaving him with serious identity issues and the whole "I am my abuser" thing going on. He's aging double fast, is going to die young, and is living in a world that quite frankly, is getting worse by the minute, more or less confirming his idea that Humans Are Bastards. Rau has far too many potential Freudian Excuses to qualify for this trope. Plus there's his Pet the Dog moments in the flahsbacks with Rey and the Chairman, and the fact that he's portrayed almost sympathetically at times. Basically, there's a whole bunch of little reasons that together add up to a no.
Added a few things here and there to Kira's description. Still objective, but touches more upon his infamy on the western fandom. It's too important to simply not note. Discuss anything here before we go into full edit wars, please.

You can't add YMMV tropes, such as Americans Hate Tingle, the way you tried to on the Seed Destiny page. As long as what you're adding is stated in "the fans" don't like him terms, I'm cool with it. Start adding, "they hate because of" and start listing reasons and we will have a problem.
Also, the hate for him doesn't seem to be as permanent as you think. Depending on the site you go to you will get very different results.
