Keep Subject is notable in the area of transgender per the hundreds of news items written on the subject and the Google Books and Google Scholar items associated with the subject. User:Abbottonian seems to have a personal issue with recognizing transgender people since he refers to Jen Richards's website as "his website". I suggest that User:Abbottonian recuse himself from this debate if he has a personal issue with transgender people. — goethean 12:29, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Goethean: I have no interest or conflict with transgender, just made a gender mistake while generating AfD. Where page is concerned, his/her website might be notable to have Wikipedia page but Jen Richards do not have independent notability. Being a website founder, and creator of non-notable (Her Story (web series)) is not enough.

Delete He is not a notable individual. Being a minor supporting cast member in a reality television show does not make him notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 02:28, 4 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Johnpacklambert, those are not the correct pronouns: Jen Richards is a transgender woman so we need to use female pronouns when discussing her. I know this may seem nitpicky, but all AfD discussions are open to the world and we should, as Wikipedia editors strive to be inclusive. Megalibrarygirl (talk) 23:29, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep As goethean said. She is notable in the trans community, has production credits to her name, and there are plenty of resources to back this up. I also suggest that anyone who is predisposed against transgender persons (as might be indicated by misgendering) remove themselves from the discussion. This kind of behavior should not be tolerated.

Keep In addition to the sources Northamerica1000 mentions, here's 1, 2, 3, 4 more. Innisfree987 (talk) 18:19, 20 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
