Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Miss Indiana World


 * 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   no consensus. There are two calls for a redirect, but the reasoning is little beyond an assertion of non-notability. (A redirect is of course possible as an editorial decision, regardless of this AFD.) I am not altogether convinced by the sources provided either, since they are not really in-depth coverage. Nonetheless, I am not willing to close this AFD with a decisive result at this point since the AFD discussion is sullied by the nominator being a now blocked sockpuppet.

 * Redirect to United States representatives at Miss World along with others in Template:US at Miss World state pageants. Lower-level stages of the main competition are not themselves notable. Reywas92Talk 21:12, 10 May 2020 (UTC)

 * And where in the article does it not meet GNG standards. I can update the article so it includes these requirements. IZ041 (talk) 01:49, 11 May 2020 (UTC)


 * Also if Preliminary competitions to the main national competition are "not themselves notable" then we would asking for redirects not only for this pageant but also for preliminary pageants for Miss USA, Miss America, Miss Universe, Miss World and all other preliminary competitions that are to determine contestants for the main competition (whether being national or international respectively). Miss Indiana USA or Miss Indiana for example should be redirected to Miss USA and Miss America because they’re preliminary, "Lower-level" stages of the competition and should not exist according your logic.

 * Redirect to Article on Miss World USA. Different state level pageants receive different levels of coverage this does not receive the coverage to justify an article.John Pack Lambert (talk) 12:08, 11 May 2020 (UTC)


 * This article does receive the coverage to justify an article.  IZ041 (talk) 04:16, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * @User:IZ041 Significant, indepth coverage, in reliable sources. WP:RS and WP:SIGCOV needs to be met. Trivial mentions in unreliable sources, is not enough MistyGraceWhite (talk) 12:56, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
 * @User:MistyGraceWhite The Spokesman-Review is a reliable secondary resource and so is Pageantopolis. If Pageantopolis is not a reliable source then why is it listed as a useful resource on the Wikipedia:WikiProject Beauty Pageants page??????? Here are the sources from Pageantopolis that are used in the article. IZ041 (talk) 18:10, 14 May 2020 (UTC)


 * @User:IZ041 in-depth coverage is needed. Just a simple trivial mention does not make a topic pass GNG. Just where in the The Spokesman-Review is this pageant mentioned in depth. A single line of five words, and that too about the winner, not the pageant itself, is not enough for GNG pass. MistyGraceWhite (talk) 20:06, 14 May 2020 (UTC)
