List of Indian winners in International beauty pageants

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

There is no indication that the topic as such (as opposed to individual winners) is notable and meets WP:LISTN based on coverage in reliable sources.  Sandstein  12:08, 18 November 2018 (UTC)


 * The same probably applies to most entries in Category:Nations at beauty pageants, so this is kind of a test nomination. In all of these cases, I don't see this as much more than attempts at nationalist posturing. There are beautiful people all over the world, so there's no particular link between nationality and beauty pageant victories. In addition, the information is presumably already present in the results pages of the various notable pageants themselves.  Sandstein   12:13, 18 November 2018 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * I was expecting this to be more or less complementary to Category:Indian beauty pageant winners, but it seems both narrower (only including "international" beauty pageants and excluding intranational ones), and broader (including individual winners who don't merit articles). I think if there's a valid core it's one that looks more like the category, as a standard list of notable people of a particular nationality by accomplishment/occupation, and the list can in turn be organized under headers for the pageants. postdlf (talk) 19:41, 18 November 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete this is list of non-notable pageants and winners except for the Big Four international beauty pageants which has a similar page, India at Big Four international beauty pageants.--Richie Campbell (talk) 03:53, 21 November 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete This article fails WP:GNG and WP:LISTN because it is primarily a list of non-notable pageants and winners except for the Big Four international beauty pageants, and the topic is not discussed as such a grouping at all in WP:RS. I also agree with the nominators statement about articles such as this being petty attempts at nationalist posturing and there are indeed beautiful people all over the world. I would also support nominating for deletion other similar pageant lists as well. Newshunter12 (talk) 12:10, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination. Distinct lack of encyclopaedic interest. -The Gnome (talk) 18:06, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
