The result was Procedural Close Malformed AfD due to technical error. Closed with consent from Nom. StarM 01:53, 10 March 2020 (UTC)

Note: This malformed nomination has already been reported to the nominator at User_talk:Meatsgains (Just to save anyone else going round the loop I've just done, finding that someone else got there first) Pam  D  10:57, 8 March 2020 (UTC)

I'm not quite sure why this page was suggested for deletion. Morrissey is of significance as she played an role in influencing Canada's immigration laws to be inclusive of LGBT families and has continued to be of significance since this legal action, in leadership roles with organizations within the country. Further, her achievements have been recognized by the Canadian government, which in 2019 awarded her with an Officer of the Order of Canada. The sources for the information on this page are from mainstream news sites and academic journals. She has been the source of significant media coverage since the 1990s. Wikipedia's notability guidelines WP:ANYBIO states a person is warranted of a Wikipedia page if: "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor, or has been nominated for such an award several times. "The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in a specific field.[8]" Morrissey has received a significant award and plays a role in the history of LGBT rights within Canada. For these reasons, I would strongly urge this page not to be deleted. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mnonkes (talk • contribs) 20:59, 7 March 2020 (UTC)
