Another pointless article
Just like Malenia's, Radahn's article is even worse. Literally nothing about the design of his boss fight and the whole page feels like it's deditcated to just praising him. I personally don't think Elden Ring bosses deserve to have their own articles due to lack of information.

A lack of information doesn't dictate the notability of the subject. While it's a highly valuable aspect that should be strived for in an article, if it simply doesn't exist, it shouldn't stop the subject from meeting the general notability guideline. If this information does exist and isn't here, it can simply be added to the article.

The character does not have enough
notability to warrant its own article. The "creation" section is not well-detailed and does not explain how the character was developed. The reception section needs to be trimmed as well. If this article doesn't improve within the next few days then I would suggest creating a
List of Elden Ring characters article and merge Radahn's page with it.

Conception and design information is not required for subject notability. If sources don't exist to cover it, then it shouldn't impact subject notability. If this was Reception I would agree, but conception and design info, while wanted, is not a necessity for keeping character articles around.

Corrected the "Reception" section for second fight
As I engaged in
WP:BOLD, I'm notifying via the talk page that I changed the Reception section concerning second Radahn. It was a little bit of a mess, so I corrected a few awkward or grammatically incorrect sentences, as well as a source placed at the wrong point. I also removed the Reddit username since it didn't feel like it brought much to the description of these Radahn challenges, merely needlessly extending their description.
EDIT: Also added some sources to justify the claim in the lead about "hardest boss in FS history", plus rearranged the citations to have them source the proper claims. Cheers,
