[edit] Alicia Selby

The article stub reads, in total, "Alicia Selby was the winner of Miss Teen Tennessee 2003, and 1st runner-up in Miss Teen USA 2003." Does being the winner of a beauty pageant in [[US-STATENAME]] make that individual "notable enough" for inclusion? (No vote.) GRider\talk 20:38, 16 Feb 2005 (UTC)

  • Comment: Alicia Selby gets 232 hits on google. [1]
    • Many of those pages on Google just list the results of Miss Teen USA 2003, or news articles about the pageant, but nothing notable about Selby herself. Zzyzx11 00:16, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Strong delete. Nearly every high school has a contest like that. Miss <country> deserves a page, but not miss <age category> <state>. Radiant! 22:22, Feb 16, 2005 (UTC)
  • Comment -- Currently, the Miss Teen Tennessee USA article is the second state beauty pageant listed in the Beauty pageants category (the other is Rhode Island). But the Miss Tennessee Teen article has all the winners wikified. Zzyzx11 00:11, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete. Not notable. And someone will have to do something about Miss Teen USA and Miss Teen Tennessee, but let's wait to see how the consensus on this will come out. JoaoRicardo 07:14, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, not notable, even if she had won. -R. fiend 08:51, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep, and expand. Megan1967 09:17, 17 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Delete, participation in a beauty pageant doesn't make a person notable. Wile E. Heresiarch 07:35, 18 Feb 2005 (UTC)
  • Keep (though it is borderline) - David Gerard 23:06, 20 Feb 2005 (UTC)
