Meghan Miller

 * – (View AfD) (View log)

Non-notable winner of teen beauty pageant and losing contestant on !reality show. A few publications wrote very short articles about the beauty pageant that she won, but those are the only mentions of her in reliable sources ObiterDicta ( pleadings • errata • appeals ) 18:19, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep, seems notable enough. --PEAR (talk) 18:25, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep national titleholder of second most notable Teen pageant in the country, sister titleholder to Miss America. Add to that she appeared on America's Got Talent.  She might not have been as notable on the latter as Cassandra Whitehead, but please see Articles for deletion/Cassandra Whitehead which was kept... she was only a local titleholder (with many placements at state) as well as appearing on ANTM... Meghan is a national titleholder so deleting this is crazy. Needs references, which I can do. PageantUpdater  talk • contribs  19:59, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't have thought Cassandra Whitehead was notable either and the comparison is simply WP:OTHERSTUFFEXISTS. Nevertheless, if you can find sources that do more than mention her in passing (which was all I could find), feel free to use those to establish notability.

 * It is more than OTHERSTUFFEXISTS... it is that consensus deemed the article notable enough for conclusion. Whether you disagree with that is irrelevant. PageantUpdater  talk • contribs  20:33, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Even accepting your assumption that a prior AfD forms some sort of precedent, Whitehead's notability seemed to stem mostly from a controversy on her show. Nothing similar happened with Miller. ObiterDicta ( pleadings • errata • appeals ) 20:44, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep - winner of a notable pageant. It is current consensus that the state winners are not notable, but this should not be extended to the national winner. --After Midnight 0001 20:47, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Winning the national pageant makes this an easy call. Realkyhick 22:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep per PageantUpdater. Nick mallory 01:23, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
