I fail to see why this page has had its notability challenged: Sue-Ellen Case is a notably active theorist. Dsp13 14:37, 21 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. She's a huge deal. I'm surprised the article is so small, actually. I don't see why Wikipedia has a Wikiproject for LGBT studies while fellow wikipedians seek to eliminate articles on LGBT studies. Seems counterintuitive. We should be expanding these pages instead.

The article needs sourced, if it is to be expanded. I encourage any editor to think twice before readding unsourced material to a BLP. Unit Anode 03:59, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have thought far more than twice about this issue. Deleting verifiable content willy-nilly for lack of citations is very destructive to the encyclopedia, and does not accord with any policy or guideline. I have not added any material. I have restored material that was improperly deleted. In this case it happens to be sourced material - a claim that a person wrote a book is sourced to the book itself, and can easily be verified. Per WP:BRD, a bold blanking of content can be rejected, and it is up to the person proposing the edit to establish consensus. The status quo is that it stays in.
