Seems to be a WP:BLP1E case; she's likely not notable. wizzito | say hello! 14:44, 29 November 2021 (UTC)

- Keep I think it is mostly a WP:BLP1E case, but it has reached such a wide audience. passing WP:SIGCOV that it has worth keeping. Its been reported on numerous papers in the US and a couple in the UK. Its widely reported on social media, there is even tv programme about the event. I think because it is quite unusual as an event, successfully sueing your trolls on social, that it has historical worth and is worth recording. scope_creepTalk 14:57, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Keep, but I wouldn't object to renaming the page Dumpson v. Ade. pburka (talk) 15:15, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Keep per WP:BASIC and because this does not appear to be WP:BLP1E, including because national coverage of her appears to have begun in 2017, before the lawsuit (e.g. WaPo), she does not appear to have remained low-profile since then (i.e. filing and winning the lawsuit, NYT 2019, CNN 2019, ongoing coverage e.g. NPR 2021), the events are significant and her roles are substantial and well-documented. Also, I would object to renaming the article to the case name because of the volume and depth of reporting about her, both before and after the case. Beccaynr (talk) 23:18, 29 November 2021 (UTC)
- Keep She has received significant coverage in reliable sources for four years, and the lawsuit she won set the precedent that online harassment can lead to serious financial consequences. Cullen328 (talk) 00:54, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
- Keep: Sufficient in-depth coverage to suggest that this person is of longterm significance. PamD 09:27, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
- Rename As a BLP I would vote delete, the subject is not notable and is only known for one event. Hence, per WP:BLP1E subject does not merit a biographical article. As a legal case, yes it is notable and worthy of coverage. Hence, I would propose rename to Dumpson v. Ade per pburka. WCMemail 09:49, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
- Comment I revised and expanded the article to include more sources, including from GScholar and ProQuest. I think additions such as her writing being included as a chapter in the book American Hate: Survivors Speak Out by Arjun Singh Sethi, and her experience noted in the book Culture Warlords: My Journey Into the Dark Web of White Supremacy by Talia Lavin help provide further support for an article about her.

- Keep. I would say this falls under WP:NOTBLP1E. WestCD (talk) 03:31, 3 December 2021 (UTC)
