This biography was initially created using material cut and pasted from en:wiki Pig-faced women and wikidata. Victuallers (talk) 16:11, 17 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Strong support - Steevens is notable in her own right, with an entry in the Dictionary of Irish Biography. It is fitting that she has her own article, with content from Pig-faced women merged into this article. Smirkybec (talk) 13:41, 5 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
Strong oppose, as the author, assuming you actually mean "split" not "merge". She's notble in her own right, but that doesn't mean she's not also a key part of the PFW mythos. Removing the section about her from the main PFW article just because she has a stand-alone biography—which I think is what you're proposing—would be unhelpfulness-for-the-sake-of-unhelpfulness. Summary style exists to stop articles becoming too long, it doesn't mean removing content from the parent article when a sub-page exists. All this would do would introduce unnecessary bias to the parent article, since the myth in England would be covered in full but in Ireland by a "see also" link. ‑ Iridescent 14:42, 5 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
