We lack multiple indepdent, reliable sources to show notability. One source in a local newspaper in a small island polity is not enough to show notability. This whole issue was extensively discussed back in about 2016, about 4 years after the last nomination, and arguments for default notable lists of beauty pageant winners were rejected. This means beauty pageant winners have to pass the GNG, which she does not. There was also some view that if all the links were connected to a beauty pagent win that might be one event, but that was never fully decided. However Hyndman is clearly non-notable.

 * Keep. Wasn't that difficult to find some NBC News and El Mundo coverage. JamieWhat (talk) 16:02, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Representing your country in the Miss Universe pageant is different from being a random "beauty pageant winner." Per WP:ANYBIO: "The person has received a well-known and significant award or honor." There is a difference between winning a "notable" award (such as Miss British Virgin Islands) and winning a non-notable award like Miss Wonder Bread. Looking at our article Miss Universe 2012, virtually all contestants have articles. Hard to see why this one should be an exception. HouseOfChange (talk) 16:43, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep The news source is credible and it is a notable award, by the way any pageant contestant can be notable if she gets national news coverage or anyone else for that matter. Jaxbrother (talk) 16:50, 16 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep Obviously notable, nom as usual did no WP:BEFORE. Completely absud nomination. Smartyllama (talk) 20:02, 21 January 2020 (UTC)
