Harriet Stokes

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable except for being sorta-transgender, which doesn't qualify for WP:N or WP:BIO. No sourced found. SatyrTN (talk | contribs) 01:45, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete or Merge with Eonism -- although that term is not commonly used, I understand. I think that article is where historical cases of living as the opposite sex should end up, unless someone has a better suggestion.  Transvestism?  I agree that no sources can be found, so this particular case may be better off deleted.  Accounting4Taste 01:55, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment There is room for an article on the phenomenon of people secretly living cross-gendered - particularly historical expamples - but Harriet probably doesn't need her own page. Merge into Eonism for now, and look for a better name. MarkBul 02:15, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment Harriet's not a good example, you're right. I think Jeanne Baré is a better one. -- SatyrTN (talk | contribs)  03:59, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete, Wikipedia isn't News of the Weird for the 19th century, either. Not a notable case. --Dhartung | Talk 03:31, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete and do not redirect per Dhartung. CRGreathouse (t | c) 13:59, 24 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete – NN. Humorous anecdote, about the hat and all.  Tiptopper 16:36, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
