Miss Continental Queen

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non-existent pageant, almost certainly a hoax. Web searches come up with a different pageant which is certainly not this one. User who created it also seems to have fantasies of being a famous beauty queen. GrayFullbuster (talk) 02:17, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Strong Delete I still maintain this should be speedy deleted under A7, since a beauty pageant is an organization that runs the contest itself. Nevertheless, no sources to demonstrate that this pageant exists, let alone meets general notability, very likely a hoax or so non-notable as to have generated no coverage.

 * I tried having it Speedy deleted under WP:CSD G3, but the admins apparently doesn't think it's a hoax. GrayFullbuster (talk) 05:54, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, I saw. I'd tried A7 previously. Sometimes its worth applying WP:IAR if you don't think the exact letter of the rules applies, but not everyone agrees, unfortunately. Thanks for taking the time to bring this to AfD. Sparthorse (talk) 06:03, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete as unverifiable. Only Google hits appear to be about another organization. • Gene93k (talk) 19:10, 20 October 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Obvious hoax is obvious. Yunshui 雲水 07:51, 25 October 2011 (UTC)
