non-notable beauty queen. Has entered contests but has never won any. Animatronic Fruit Loop (talk) 20:32, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete, no real evidence of notability. Nyttend (talk) 20:40, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete. Certainly is pretty, but she never placed in either pageant she was in - thusly failing WP:N. -- Dennis The Tiger   (Rawr and stuff) 22:26, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - WP:N. Crafty (talk) 23:10, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep, I think. Isn't the "delegate" claim in the article equivalent to saying she won the newer Miss Finland title, as listed in the infobox? Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 01:00, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Speedy delete per A7 - article does not assert notability. Failing speedy delete, the article does not pass WP:N as being an entrant in a beauty pageant is not inherently notable and the article does not provide multiple significant secondary sources. - DustFormsWords (talk) 06:41, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * speedy declined. The national prizes asserted may or may not be notable--it isn't my field--but they are at least an indication of possible notability.   DGG ( talk ) 11:40, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Anybody know what the policy is on Miss World entrees? My understanding is that they are accepted on here. This article is pretty poor at present though.. Himalayan   11:59, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep - I've reconsidered the matter, and decided I was being overly biased against beauty pageants. Ms Aaltonen's field is "beauty pageants", and being an entrant in Miss World is really as high as you can possibly go in that field; it constitutes a significant achievement at the apex of her professional area and as such meets WP:N.  My feeling was that beauty pageants were inherently non-notable and upon reflection I don't think that's supported by current policy.  Vote accordingly changed to keep. - DustFormsWords (talk) 01:59, 30 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Delete, as the article only really exists to say that she lost some competitions. Who cares? --Human.v2.0 (talk) 19:30, 29 September 2009 (UTC)
