I do think the inclusion of the word "notable" is important here. The
lists aren't just of women, they're of women who are notable enough to
qualify for a Wikipedia article - which is a pretty low bar, as anyone
who's ever tried to get some mess deleted already knows!

Unless it's a bio of someone enough editors want to get rid of for
some
prejudicial reasons, even if it's got lots of WP:RS. Then they claim,
"oh, it doesn't matter if the person has been quoted or referred to 10
times by the top newspapers in the country, the articles weren't ABOUT
the person. So they aren't REALLY notable."
That's why it would be nice to know that Admins are truly neutral and
objective, but that's not always true either. ;-(
