Fails WP:GNG due to lack of independent coverage. No reliable sources for the pageant itself as both sources are about the contestants. The Banner talk 16:13, 22 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Keep - events that lead to a national title are normally notable and we don't delete likely notable subjects for lack of sources; rather we tag them for improvement (that I have just done). In this case the sources are likely to be in Romanian and, to avoid systemic bias we need to allow time for searches to be carried out of Romanian sources. Just Chilling (talk) 22:32, 22 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Keep: Quite a few third-party sources on the competition, almost exclusively in Romanian. Very likely to be notable, as above user noted. I've added at least one citation, and there's a lot of articles on this pageant lately (due to the winner being selected and moving into international competitions).Appable (talk) 13:12, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * delete again still the spam recreation without significant coverage in reliably published third party sources, merely press release regurgitation services. --  TRPoD aka The Red Pen of Doom  17:12, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * How do you know they are press release services? To me, at least, the sources have some significant differences. With a quick search online, I can find that there are quite a lot on this subject and it's doubtful that they are all press releases. It's a national, major event and therefore almost certainly notable.Appable (talk) 18:45, 23 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Why are you giving sources to the contestants? It is the pageants that needs sources. As long as it stays unclear how important the pageant is (confirmed by reliable sources conform WP:RS), the notability is also unclear. The Banner talk 23:09, 23 October 2015 (UTC)

 * Delete as fails GNG - The Romania-Insider looks alright but the rest just look like spam and to be totally honest look like they were done by Miss Romania themselves!, The sooner these crappy Miss X articles are deleted the better!, Anyway no evidence of notability, Fails GNG. – Davey 2010 Talk 19:32, 5 November 2015 (UTC)
