Talk:Miss Nevada Teen USA

BLP violations
I have once again removed the ages from the table. Firstly, that information was unreferenced. Secondly, it was supposed to be their age at the time of another pageant, not this one, making it irrelevant to the topic of this article. Thirdly, even if we had a reference for the age of the winners at the time of this pageant (and for some few people we do have such sources), those are still low-profile individuals, partly (at the time of the pageant) minors, and I have privacy concerns. For those few persons who are individually notable, the articles on those persons can note their ages. For the others, that would rather fall under indiscriminate information, something Wikipedia is not the place for. The contestants' hometowns and most of the notes ("got married"? Seriously?) also are unreferenced, but I acknowledge that the hometown might be of some significance since the contestants represent those hometowns. Still sources should be provided. I'll remove those notes whose relevance to the topic of the article I doubt and leave the less problematic ones in hopes that others can provide references. Huon (talk) 23:14, 1 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I've reverted your second removal of material. That second removal was in violation of the bold-revert-discuss cycle.
 * The material that you removed was not contentious and is routinely reported as part of the overall reporting for pageant winners. As such, the material is verifiable, even if not currently verified here in every instance.  Also, this routine reporting of ages by the general media renders your "privacy concerns" laughably moot.
 * Finally, your concerns about privacy and your odd definition of "indiscriminate" could be applied to dozens, if not hundreds, of similar articles. The potentially wide-reaching effect of your novel theories and definitions call for raising them via a Request for Comments at the Talk page of the Beauty Pageants Project, not on the Talk page of just one of the hundreds of affected articles.

 * P.S. I actually agree with you about the unreferenced notes -- "got married" is indeed a bit silly.  But the one note that you did choose to remove -- the family connection with another pageant winner -- revealed a failure on your part to do any reasonable search for sources.  In this case, a perfectly good source was already in place on the article for the mother, and that article was conveniently linked in the table here.  All you needed to do was copy it over to this article.  Your failure to do so suggests that proper sourcing isn't really what you're looking to achieve here.

 * As such, the material is verifiable, even if not currently verified here in every instance. — Verified means here, not somewhere else. If there's a source that verifies the info, cite it when restoring it.  To quote literally the first sentence of WP:V, "In Wikipedia, verifiability means that anyone using the encyclopedia can check that the information comes from a reliable source."  It doesn't mean our readers go Google it to verify the facts.  --Nick&#8288;—&#8288;Contact/Contribs 01:42, 2 July 2016 (UTC)
 * I think there's a pretty strong consensus that unreferenced biographical information has no place on Wikipedia. I have once again removed the obviously unsourced ages which were irrelevant to this pageant anyway. Huon (talk) 19:16, 4 July 2016 (UTC)
 * The ages are still on this page. I can 100% confirm with a birth certificate that at least one of the ages of the contestants is four years off--the contestant was 14 and a minor at the time the pageant took place. Can we please remove the ages? Not only are the sources incorrect, but other sites are using this site as a reference and posting incorrect age(s) for the contestant(s) as well.
