I've trimmed down your additions to the section "In comparison to male characters". Although Sarkeesian has academic credentials, Tropes vs. Women in Video Games is a self-published source and therefore not considered reliable - in particular, it's not peer-reviewed. I've added a reliable source for the basic point made. You can find reliable sources for the Video games WikiProject here, and search them with this adapted search.
Did you get to compile references about female characters in marketing? That would we a very interesting article extension. Again, welcome to the project. Diego (talk) 23:13, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
