I am having hard time finding sigcov about him, I may be wrong in the google scholar. All of the sources at reception were just from the game (He is just mostly a passing mention). Greenish Pickle!  (🔔) 11:20, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

 * Redirect to Bioshock 2 - Like many articles on fictional characters that only appeared in a single piece of fiction, the reception section is just the result of WP:REFBOMBing, where a multitude of extremely trivial mentions are jammed in to give the illusion of genuine coverage. But, the vast majority of these are simply reviews of Bioshock 2 in general, that simply mention the character briefly. In a number of these, it is literally a single sentence worth of "coverage" on the character that is being used as a source. Searching is not bringing up anything that goes into significant coverage on Sinclair himself apart from just general coverage of Bioshock 2 that would allow him to pass the WP:GNG on his own merits.

 * Comment - I'm also fine with Characters of the BioShock series being the target as suggested below - I didn't think to look if there was already an entry in an appropriate character list before making my initial recommendation. Rorshacma (talk) 22:41, 11 April 2024 (UTC)


 * Merge to Characters of the BioShock series, there is not enough sourcing for this to be standalone. Coverage is largely trivial in nature. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:59, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
 * Merge or redirect per all. Doesn't meet WP:SIGCOV, but a short summary can appear at the main article, per WP:ATD. Shooterwalker (talk) 17:15, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
