The result was speedy delete‎__EXPECTED_UNCONNECTED_PAGE__ with a side of IAR. We have a consensus to delete based on notability and a deadnamed article that is causing stress to a BLP. This does not need to run longer. Star  Mississippi  00:57, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

This is a biography of a living person who requested the article be deleted (Help desk). The subject appears to be only barely notable and quite probably not notable at all (see comments on the talk page), and there was a previous discussion about deletion. The subject has transitioned and does not wish her current name - which is now the title of the article - to be associated with the name she was possibly notable under. WP:BIODELETE suggests that a request for deletion from a relatively unknown subject of a BLP should be respected. There must be many sportspeople who are equally notable who do not have Wikipedia pages. The entry is categorised as "Low importance" on the projects Australia and Climbing.

 * Yes, I also vote to delete. Taylorppp3 (talk) 22:05, 30 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Comment. @Taylorppp3 has said that they represent the BLP subject on the article talk page, and that they would like to have the article deleted (hence the WP:BIODELETE in the nom). If the article is not deleted, then MOS:GENDERID applies (as the subject's notability was under their previous deadname of Chris Webb), which the subject would rather not be preserved.

 * Comment It looks like there's a consensus to delete - but if it were to be kept, maybe it could be renamed back to the deadname and not mention the person's current name. Lijil (talk) 17:48, 1 August 2023 (UTC)

 * Delete, for the reasons well articulated above. CT55555 (talk) 22:07, 31 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete Notability is borderline and WP:BIODELETE applies, note also that they are mentioned in other articles using their dead name. Theroadislong (talk) 06:08, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Delete. For clarity, though this AfD is listed as the 2nd nomination, there was no previous AfD that I can find (either related to Taylor Parsons or the article pre-move under Parsons' birth name). There was a BLP prod in 2021, which was removed as it did not meet the BLP prod criteria.  All that being said, while Parsons may technically be marginally notable, she is not particularly well-known and deleting her article under WP:BIODELETE seems reasonable.

 * I'm the person who nominated, and I may have misunderstood the BLP prod - I thought that meant it had been nominated for deletion previously. Thanks for clarifying. Lijil (talk) 17:44, 1 August 2023 (UTC)
