Seemingly non-notable local beauty pageant winner. Notability completely hinges on her future participation in the national pageant, and all sources are just local. --fuzzy510 06:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC) fuzzy510 06:21, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

  • Note: This debate has been included in the list of Utah-related deletions. -- John Vandenberg 08:28, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Non-notable based on past and current activities, future prospects cannot be used to satisfy WP:BIO because Wikipedia is not a crystal ball. --SquidSK (1MC•log) 09:26, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Redirect to Miss Teen USA 2007. There is nothing "crystal ball" about their scheduled participation in a national pageant next month. Their names are already listed in that article. This state winner will compete in the national contest. These AFD nominations are deceitful in that they characterize the winner of a state contest as being winner of a local contest, misleading those who !vote to delete on that basis. Many U.S. state are larger geographically and demographically and in their economies than many countries in the world, and should not be dismissed as "local", so I request the nominator to rephrase these noms as "state" rather than local, to avoid the possibiility of any deletions being taken to review.Edison 14:39, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
  • These nominations are completely accurate in characterizing them as winners of local contests since, you know, they are. Note especially none of the ones I've looked at -- not a single one -- has any 3rd-party sources other than the most local of media, namely the girls' hometown newspaper/TV station saying hey, this local girl won this here beauty pageant. And half don't even have THAT figleaf of a "reliable source" buttressing their claims to fame.
  • "Deceitful", by the way, might be better applied to the use of pejorative terms like "deceitful" in order to spin the issue and cast doubt on the motives of the nominator.
  • And being one of 51 contestants on a single televised contest means bupkis as far as actual notability goes. --Calton | Talk 20:38, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. as per Calton. --Fredrick day 09:29, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
