Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Resignation of Shirley Sherrod
WP:BLP1E  says "write an article about the event, not the person", so it really doesn't apply here.  does not apply either though: To quote said policy: "... including information on recent developments is sometimes appropriate ...". We have here a case where developments are noteworthy and lead to much coverage with a good chance that there will be a lasting notability. NOTNEWS seeks to remove articles and content that are clearly better suited for Wikinews, i.e. where it's obvious that the notability will vanish after a few days/weeks after news reports about it stopped. In this case, we cannot say for certain whether this will happen and the amount of coverage and discussion this subject created makes it a real possibility that lasting notability exists. If it turns out that this was incorrect, we can revisit this question in a few months. Regards
