Margaret Keenan (Covid 19 Vaccine)

 * – ( View AfD View log )

The subject is only known for being the first person to receive the vaccine. Otherwise, her life was unremarkable. A clear case of WP:ONEEVENT. A redirect could be left to e.g. COVID-19 vaccine. It is unlikely she will become separately notable in the future. Modussiccandi (talk) 22:18, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Keep subject has been covered in number of news and other media independently. If Dolly (sheep) can have a wiki page, so can the subject owing the same logic. Thanks.Tabletop123 (talk) 22:40, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I'm not convinced by the Dolly (sheep) parallel. There are lots of details available about Dolly's scientific legacy and the extraordinary circumstances of her birth, about how a team of researchers planned the cloning. A better example for your case would be Rosa Parks: while being notable for mainly one event, lots has been written about her since. Yes there is coverage of Margaret Keenan. But it will all give you the same info: her age, her former job and her getting the jab. Modussiccandi (talk) 22:59, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Comment: I've just seen that there is already an article (Margaret Keenan) which went the way I proposed. So this one might be an A10 speedy delete. Though the page in question is a redirect and not a page now. Modussiccandi (talk) 23:02, 9 December 2020 (UTC)

Delete: Delete per above. Sincerely, TheCartoonEditor. talk to me? see what i've done 23:24, 9 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete A10, as per Modussiccandi's comment above - recently created article that duplicates an existing page. Dylanfromthenorth (talk) 00:11, 10 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Redirect to BNT162b2, exactly the same as Margaret Keenan. This title is a highly plausible search term, as she is the first recipient of this particular COVID-19 vaccine, and indeed is probably far more recognized than the actual article title. Redirect is supported by the text at both WP:CSD and WP:ATD-R. --SmokeyJoe (talk) 01:48, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Not notable other than being first in line. Oaktree b (talk) 02:16, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete classic WP:BLP1E. Can be mentioned as a one-line in another article.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 08:01, 10 December 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete or redirect - I don't mind which. Classic case of a living person notable only for one event. Already mentioned at BNT162b2, which is enough. Spiderone  09:46, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per A10. Would've originally said redirect but it seems this article already exists. ser! (let's discuss it). 16:59, 10 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Subject has numerous articles dedicated to her and the whole world knows her, is that enough for notability? Thanks.Tabletop123 (talk) 00:05, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
 * Notability is not even a question, she is not. This is a wrong forum RfD.  The topic is covered at BNT162b2.  This is a plausible search term.  --SmokeyJoe (talk) 00:34, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
