List of Official Policies from Medical Organizations on Transgender People

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

This page is not a Wikipedia article, nor do I see any prospect if it ever becoming one. It consists entirely of material copied from the publications of various organisations in the United States; this was initially plain and simple copyright violation, but it's now been supplied with quotation marks so its just an abuse of our non-free content policy, in particular criteria 3, "Minimal usage", and 8, "Contextual significance". I note also the guidance at WP:NFCCEG: "Extensive quotation of copyrighted text is prohibited". Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 20:40, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete. Seems well-intentioned, but can never be encyclopedic and is a likely copyright violation. -Crossroads- (talk) 20:49, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete: Agree with User:Crossroads1 that this will have a hard time being encyclopedic. When you read it it sounds like a copyright violation. If somebody could find books or articles comparing the policies of different organizations that might become the basis of a Wikipedia article. In other words, find third-party coverage and don't just quote what each organization says. EdJohnston (talk) 02:22, 28 September 2019 (UTC)
