Sanderson does not meet the notability requirements of Wikipedia. Her one claim to fame is winning Miss Alabama, and that is not a high enough honor to confer notability. The coverage bears this out. There is minimal coverage of that win. Beyond that we have coverage from the Gadsden Times, including things like her wedding annoucement. This is not the level of coverage that raises an article to notability. John Pack Lambert (talk) 23:49, 21 November 2016 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete as there's literally no independent notability given there's only 1 trivial pageant for a 1-time career achievement, nothing else. SwisterTwister   talk  07:24, 23 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Comment – The subject has actually received some significant coverage in news sources, but the sources are all local to Gadsden, Alabama, where the subject is from (e.g., , ). North America1000 07:05, 14 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Comment Here are the citations from the article.  This is another well-engineered Dravecky article.

 * Keep Meets both WP:GNG and WP:ANYBIO#1 for notability.  The remedy for editors who believe that this topic fails our notability guideline is to merge the reliable material as a mini-bio to a suitable target article such as Miss Alabama.  Unscintillating (talk) 06:27, 19 December 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete -- a state-level pageant win hardly qualifies as WP:ANYBIO#1, as multiple past AfDs have abundantly demonstrated. The GNG is not met as the sources are local and coverage is routine, as in "local person gets award". Nothing else stands out about this contestant, and in such case, article on state winners are routinely deleted.


 * The article contains copy such as:
 * "Her family includes her mother Judy, an elementary school teacher, sisters Jill and Margie, and brothers Marcus and John.[2][11][14]"
 * This is a hallmark of a WP:PSEUDO BLP, and this article should be correspondingly deleted. K.e.coffman (talk) 07:00, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
 * You mean, "...correspondingly merged as per WP:PSEUDO". The problem is that without editors here volunteering to do the merge, the editors with experience in this topic area are preferring standalone pages.  This is exactly one of the reasons that content disputes, such as this one, don't belong at AfD.  Unscintillating (talk) 01:54, 22 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Delete - While there is some local coverage, it clearly does not rise to the level of meeting WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 20:40, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
 * And if it doesn't, are there WP:Deletion policy? Unscintillating (talk) 22:02, 27 December 2016 (UTC)
