Article of very unclear utility. This merely defines its title as a term, rather than encyclopedically addressing it as a concept, and then lists the names of just two people who fit the definition, out of literally hundreds or thousands -- and not even the two who have the strongest claim to being the most famous, either. In theory, the list could simply be expanded -- but since List of transgender people already exists and isn't unmaintainably long, I just don't see the value in spinning the entertainers off as a separate list from everybody else.

- Delete The list does not serve any encyclopaedic purpose. And contains two (2) persons. This is typical of baseless list-creation. - The Gnome ( talk) 18:39, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete Category:Transgender and transsexual entertainers exists (along with more specific trans entertainer categories!) and requires less upkeep. I can't find a policy on this; it just seems redundant. originalmess how u doin that busta rhyme? 21:21, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

- Delete: I agree with Originalmess; the category will do for now. = paul2520 ( talk) 19:07, 11 July 2018 (UTC)
- Delete - Category:Transgender and transsexual entertainers is much more pertinent and the creator of this article may not have known that the category exists. The article is redundant at best. --- DOOMSDAYER520 ( Talk| Contribs) 18:17, 14 July 2018 (UTC)
