Petra Henderson

 * ( [ delete] ) – (View AfD) (View log)

Despite claim in article, Google searches turn up very little about Petra Henderson. She claims to be the first British Transsexual to be granted a full change of legal status, but there are no sources I can find to back that up. Furthermore, the entire article is vanity - see talk page. Third, all the sources in the article are either not about her (cites 1-10 & 12) or selfpub (cite 11). Finally, the Gsearch that should turn up any info about Ms. Henderson turns up 391 unhelpful results. SatyrTN (talk / contribs) 05:28, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

 * Keep If the claims in the article are true, seems highly noteworthy as first to gain full legal status.  However, article needs a makeover for tone, probably could be shortened too.Bandax (talk) 17:04, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete It doesn't matter how noteworthy the claims are if they can't be backed up by WP:RS. Movingboxes (talk) 18:41, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't find any sources, either. Nothing pertinent in g-news, and this story (I would think) would have generated some news coverage. JeremyMcCracken (talk) (contribs) 03:53, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Speedy Delete I'm not sure if it meets any of the criteria but it's a long article with no reliable sources about a living person, it contains a lot of personal information and the subject of the article who appears to have written most of it and has since agreed to it's deletion - maybe G7.

 * Delete per Guest9999. If kept, severe trimming is necessary to comply with WP:BLP. Stifle (talk) 13:28, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
