(Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL)

An unnotable person, who has not won any awards, appeared in any big films, and who is just generally unnotable. Kevin Rutherford (talk) 15:25, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: the apparently many references aren't so numerous when you factor out the repetitions. Not in the least notable. --Stfg (talk) 16:15, 21 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Kelly is a huge transsexual star and activist and one of the top transsexual pornstars in the world [3][4] plus the usual adult industry coverage. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Desertrose1982 (talk • contribs) 01:53, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Kelly is an active cam model and working on opening a new website. She has also been very active in the LBGT community. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Altstu2 (talk • contribs) 16:41, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lots of people are working on web sites. I'm working on one now in fact. We aren't Wikinews or an advertising medium. Please keep your arguments relevant to Wikipedia policy. Dismas|^(talk) 21:23, 23 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Keep - Seems notable per the sources that Morbidthoughts provided plus the other industry coverage. Yes, it's industry coverage but it shows that she is known throughout that industry much the same as Hollywood press supports the notability of Hollywood actors.

The large amount of coverage looks like a fad that is fade away faster than it is apearing.
The activism seems smirks of self promotion.
At best this should be merged with the article covering transsexualism — Preceding unsigned comment added by OrenBochman (talk • contribs)

Keep for passing, less or more weakly, GNG. In addition of sources cited by Morbidthoughts, she appears to have been the subject of a Watermark Magazine article in June 15, 2006. Now the page is a 404, but the first words of it, foundable via Google, are Volunteer coordinator and board secretary Kelly Shore is a transgendered. Not only is she helping bring her community into the mainstream, she successfully .... She does not pass ANYBIO or PORNBIO as Tranny Award is not a significant or well-known award, but the recent XBIZ nomination as Transexual Performer of the Year is, anyway, worth of notice. Cavarrone (talk) 07:14, 27 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There was much more information on her activism, before the papers archived them or they are no longer running as Cavarrone stated. I did try to erase a lot of the links that were repetitive and keep to the two main articles.
