Catherine Cando

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Non-notable winner of a minor beauty pageant, the deceased and the circumstances of her death have no enduring significance. References mainly consist of magazine and tabloid sources. WWGB (talk) 02:47, 25 January 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep, tentatively. Notability assertion for this person appears not for her as a model (wp:NMODEL), but rather the assertion "Cando's death sparked outrage in Ecuador against plastic surgery," supported by 4 references.  One could debate about wp:ONEEVENT, maybe?  I am not super-informedr with notability guidelines for persons and specific cases like this, but it looks to me to meet general wp:GNG which trumps more specific notability guidelines.
 * If others think this should not be kept as it is, is there some list-article about accidental deaths from plastic surgery, that this could possibly be merged & redirected to, as an alternative to deletion? Hmm, there is Category:Deaths from plastic surgery complications, but I don't immediately see a list-article.  Should List of deaths from plastic surgery complications be created?  If kept, the article should link to any such list, too.  I'll edit it to include it into that category right now. -- do  ncr  am  21:59, 31 January 2015 (UTC)

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

 * Keep - the death evidently attracted world-wide attention and thus is notable. Maybe the article should be renamed Death of Catherine Cando, but either way the content should be kept. --ThaddeusB (talk) 22:06, 6 February 2015 (UTC)
