Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jena Sims


 * The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposed deletion of the article below. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made on the appropriate discussion page (such as the article's talk page or in a deletion review).  No further edits should be made to this page.  

The result was Keep. Late additions of reliable source references rebut the delete arguments. Consensus is that the topic does meet the general notability guidelines. Also, the reasonable assertion of importance/significance in the article rebuts arguments that the topic does not meet CSD A7 and the article as of this close does not reflect any WP:COI problems for which the contributors should be blocked from contributing. -- Jreferee    t / c  20:48, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Jena Sims

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Previously proposed for deletion with the following reason:
 * Minor state-level beauty-pageant winner. No other accomplishments, only a few local media references. Four from this group have already been considered by AFD (Holly Shively, et al) and their deletions upheld at deletion review.

Now re-created by User:Jennifersims. Procedural nomination - no vote. - Mike Rosoft 14:47, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete: Probably could have been speedy (per CSD G4) as there is no new information in this article as was in the deleted one. - Rjd0060 14:52, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Also, could be COI. - Rjd0060 14:52, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * If an article is re-created after being successfully proposed for deletion, it cannot be speedily deleted for that reason, unless it meets the criteria on its own. Also note that the re-created version was different from the deleted one. - Mike Rosoft 15:06, 7 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Delete per nom. Local notability is not enough for inclusion in Wikipedia. Judging by the username of the creator, there is almost definitely a COI here.  NA SC AR Fan 24 (radio me!) 14:54, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep No COI as I was the original article creator. Jena is more notable than most of the Teens because of her charity work for which she has one a number of national awards.  She certainly has more press coverage than the others (apart from Caitlin Upton of course) and not just because of winning Miss GA Teen USA.  The two together (Miss GA Teen USA pageant winner & Miss Teen USA contestant and national recognition of her charity/community work should be sufficient for inclusion.

 * Comment: Being the original author has no effect. It can still be COI.  The guideline says "Editing articles related to you, your organization, or its competitors, as well as projects and products they are involved with".  It doesn't really mention creating articles, although if you do create it, I suppose that counts as an edit. - Rjd0060 21:08, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
