Insufficient context for an article, also not really notable but for the news article on the sex change(s), and notability is not temporary. Recommend deletion. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 05:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete. Sex changes are old hat, and even prisoner sex changes (funded by the state!) are old hat. The only notability here is having a sex change reversal but even that is not particularly notable. If this case involves a change to UK law or some other effect it could have some notability but as is, no. Comment: generally the phrase "notability is not temporary" means that if someone is notable at some point that does not go away and they may have an article as an historically notable person (say, a minor figure in the Watergate scandal). You seem to be using it to say that "temporary news coverage is not notability", but best say that directly. --Dhartung | Talk 07:23, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * That is what I was referring to, sorry for the confusion. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 21:56, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

 * Delete. This artical doesnt seem to be notable enough or expand beyond a stub.(ForeverDEAD 12:57, 9 September 2007 (UTC))
 * If you read the article, Jane's problem is going to be expanding beyond a stub too. Nick mallory 14:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete - not notable but interesting point raised by Dhartung E343ll 16:38, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
 * Weak keep if expanded--it asserts being the first prisoner (presumably meaning the first in the UK?) to have a sex change, so there is undoubtedly some discussion of that. Even the 2 refs give some information to be used in expansion. There is no policy that stubs get deleted. DGG (talk) 21:03, 11 September 2007 (UTC)
