If WP eventually does carry some kind of permanent article on Doran, one of the ironies is that the article won't be able to carry her side of the story until she publishes her version in a reliable source. That probably won't happen until after her current legal troubles are resolved.
Um, when in the history of BLP did Wikipedia give a damn about the opinon of the subject? Not about famous people (Spears, Springsteen, Congressmen) and not about hostage BLPs (Brandt, Levitt).
This is nothing new.

And following our normal policies, particular WP:BLP1E, there is just no way in hell we would have an article about her if it weren't for
naval gazing, trolling, or some kind of attempt to manage PR.

Jimmy Wales, Re:COO Story Now In Major MediaDidn't Durova used to be Naval Officer?
I'm sure if he asked her opinion on Naval Gazing, he'd get a spectacular answer....
Speaking of which Durova qualifies for a BLP far more than Brandt or Finkelstein ever did. Irony of ironies. Maybe they both can run her AfD for her BLP. On the 14th try....
