We propose to obtain a well-exposed X-ray spectrum of the X-ray transient Narrow-Line Seyfert 1 galaxy (NLS1)/transient Broad Absorption-line AGN WPVS 007 with XMM-Newton simultaneously with our approved HST/Chandra observations. The goal is to establish a tight connection between the UV broad absorption line troughs found in FUSE observations and the strong partial covering absorber feature found by Swift. WPVS~007 showed a dramatic transformation into a BAL-QSO between a 1996 HST observation and a 2003 FUSE observation; the recent Swift X-ray detections suggest that the absorber has started to disappear. Therefore it is crucial for our HST COS UV spectroscopy to know what the status of the X-ray absorber is.
