Eleanor McBean

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This person doesn't seem to be particularly notable. She's only really mentioned on alternative medicine/anti-vaccine websites.  bibliomaniac 1  5  07:00, 29 January 2015 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 * Delete. Seems like we could plausibly have an article on her book (The Poisoned Needle is mentioned in a few recent books on the history of vaccination, e.g. Vaccine Nation and Paralyzed with Fear), but there's not much coverage of McBean herself outside of fringe sites. I am not volunteering to write the book article and keep it clear of woo. Opabinia regalis (talk) 23:16, 5 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete. Agree that there could be an article on the book (lots of google hits for it) and maybe someone could redirect her to it, but till then, favor deletion. Also will not write the page on the book (shudder). BakerStMD T&#124;C 21:39, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
