1. This article gives unnecessary oxygen to a tiny community. /r/detrans only has 23k subscribers. Our bare minimum for even adding something to the Reddit page is 100k subscribers. All we're doing is lending unnecessary credence. There's a detransition article still in draft. Any content that could possibly be gleamed from this page should end up there (although it's by and large just "look at this bad person" nonsense). -- Techpriest (talk) 12:54, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
2. Not notable, can't find non social media google searches on it. I also oppose a merge to a draft because then the draft may not get published. Maybe merge to Reddit. Andrew5 (talk) 13:15, 7 December 2021 (UTC) No objection to merging if the draft is published. Andrew5 (talk) 18:28, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   Does not meet criteria for inclusion on Reddit either. -- Techpriest (talk) 13:28, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   Then just don't merge. If necessary, someone can independently add a sentence on this without seeing the revisions of the article. Andrew5 (talk) 14:42, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

4. Talking points common on this community can be easily covered in the main subject page. --It's-a me, 🎄LeftyGreenMario!🎄 15:51, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
5. A couple sentences on the Draft:Detransition draft is enough. Had the subreddit been larger, such as NoFap with 905k members, I would consider keeping. LongStylus (talk) 15:54, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   It doesn’t make the Reddit criteria and my feeling is the draft won’t wind up being published for a long time. Andrew5 mobile (talk) 16:22, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   I think examples of detransition communities should be mentioned in Draft:Detransition. Plus, a couple of sentences shouldn't slow things down too much, and if that's not possible, just a brief mention of the subreddit suffices too. LongStylus (talk) 18:26, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   Because we aren't sure if the draft is published, I'd say hold off on merging until the draft is published. Also - RW:DUPLICATE is the correct place for suggesting merges as said at the top of RW:AFD, merges here are done as an alternative to deletion. Andrew5 (talk) 18:28, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   Please try not to be so bureaucratic; it's very off-putting. —cosmikdebris ^talk stalk 18:34, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

   Not sure what's the disagreement we have; my opinion is more or less the same as yours. I did say I would support merging in Talk:/r/detrans, but I take that back; we can add up to a sentence or two about the subreddit in Draft:Detransition, which I wouldn't consider as merging since it's too small. I say we delete /r/detrans for a start and worry about the rest at Draft talk:Detransition. LongStylus (talk) 19:06, 7 December 2021 (UTC)

6. Was going to vote no, but rereading it, the article's best content could be rewritten into maybe two sentences and have the same amount of information. No need for this to be a full mainspace article. armed_roomba (she/her)^{What am I doing wrong this time?} 17:41, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
7. Of limited value and unworthy of attention here. —cosmikdebris ^talk stalk 18:33, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
8. Article seems well intentioned but has limited relevance and several glaring typos. ☭Comrade GC☭^{Ministry of Praise} 19:22, 7 December 2021 (UTC)
9. no specifics of any of the claimed transphobia, just vague claims made. the sources provided are at best he said/she said dross. one would expect a whole lot more examples to point to for such a subreddit thats seemingly loathed by so many. AMassiveGay (talk) 12:32, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
