Fails WP:ANYBIO, only Miss Universe gets an article historically, so WP:TOOSOON MJH (talk) 23:58, 7 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Not notable. --Sue Rangell ✍ ✉ 02:20, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep -What does the nominator mean with only miss universe gets an article historically? Just look at Miss Universe 2012 article and most Miss Universe pageant main articles over the last few years, every single participant has an article. Because winning a national beauty pageant title is notable.--BabbaQ (talk) 13:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Miss Bolivia, and do the same for all beauty pageant contestant articles where the only justification is that they competed in a pageant and there are no other sources to indicate additional notability. Mabalu (talk) 11:08, 13 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, -- Cheers, Riley 00:03, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Miss Bolivia per Mabalu. Until secondary sources show up, if ever, it is still a logical search term and we can at least direct the reader to the most logical place to find information about her. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © Join WER 03:07, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: Winner of a major national competition here. We keep bios of obscure state winners from the Miss America pageant, so why not this? Oh No! It's Faustus37! it is what it is - speak at the tone 07:49, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
- But we keep them in a list until we have a source or two, so I agree we want to maintain the information but we require sources if it is to be maintained in its own article. Dennis Brown - 2¢ © Join WER 12:27, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Weak keep - as a winner of a major national modelling competition she should be notable enough. I've found a couple of articles (one in some depth) in Bolivia's La Prensa. However, the competition seems to be split into 'Miss Universe Bolivia' (which Viruez won) and 'Miss World Bolivia' (which she didn't), so did she win half a competition?! The remainig sources in the article are very poor, either broken url's or photos only. Sionk (talk) 15:55, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Case law on this one tells me that people who have won a recognized national pageant and go on to represent their country in a competition like Miss World or Miss Universe meet WP:GNG by a mile. §FreeRangeFrog^croak 19:57, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep as per Free Range Frog - if there is a case law and precedent then that is good enough for me. Mabalu (talk) 20:00, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep She won the national pageant. - Presidentman talk · contribs (Talkback) 22:58, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and improve - extrapolating from WP:BIO and WP:PEOPLEOUTCOMES, a winner of a national beauty pageant has made a top achievement in their field at a national level. An international win would make her even more notable, but a national win is sufficient. More secondary sources are needed, but one of the references cited is a profile in the national newspaper Prensa. Altered Walter (talk) 08:22, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - Honestly this probably has a WP:SNOW chance of being deleted considering she won a national contest that would easily fall under 1. of WP:PEOPLEOUTCOMES and enough sources if you widen the search for "Miss Bolivia 2012" for WP:BIO. Mkdw ^talk 08:51, 15 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
