I've had a look at the article, and I can't believe that this hasn't
yet undergone AfD.
As it says on the talk page, being a feminist and having a blog and
youtube channel doesn't make one notable.
There are no reliable sources in the article which discuss Sarkeesian
in-depth -- there is an interview on a blog, but this can't be used to
base notability on.
As it stands now, Anita (who is hardly notable) had the misfortune to
meet some trolls on the internet (welcome to Internet peoples), and
now she is basically notable, because her un-notable Wikipedia
biography was trolled with a pr0n imagem, and someone reported on it.
Anyone wishing to get their bio onto WP should use this case as an
example of how to go about it.
The article should be at AfD, because as it stands now, it is
everything that WP is not.

Well, I've taken a look at the history and have
identified "BLP" violations
going back to October 2011; as such, I've extended the existing
semi-protection for a full year. Some extensive cleanup has already taken
place, as well as some useful article expansion.

Hi All,
The Community is aware of this and is discussing it. However, it's
worthwhile bringing to the attention of this list that one woman's
efforts
at studying gender stereotyping (reported in The New
Statesman<http://www.newstatesman.com/blogs/internet/2012/06/dear-intern…
why-you-cant-have-anything-nice>) have resulted in massive and nasty
vandalism of Anita Sarkeesian's page on Wikipedia
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anita_Sarkeesian>.
Gillian
thanks & cheers,
Claudia
