We've been through this before and can agree to disagree, but just because two characters interact doesn't mean they have a "relationship", certainly not one worth noting, particularly if they only interacted once. Obviously we do not add characters for whom there's been zero interaction because there is literally nothing to state.

Ryu killing Bankotsubo may be a significant part of the storyline, but that can be put under the relevant section about the plot. There is very little actual interaction between the two (like two lines in DOA2!) and their relationship is merely that of two enemies. Similarly, if two characters interact but not enough to warrant an entire section to themselves, there's probably somewhere else where this could be stated, if truly necessary.

I would hope average readers wouldn't think like that because it just isn't logical to assume if something isn't stated here, then nothing must've happened. It's just a wiki. Absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence. And as I recall, Jocasta Nu was demonstrably wrong, so why would the average reader agree with her? Am I giving people too much credit?

Personally, I think if the average person were reading the wiki and the only info given for two characters' relationship was: x and y are somewhat friendly, but y groped x and thinks she's cute, they'd wonder why they're being told this at all. It's info they'd survive without.
