Latuff was Miss Minnesota, but this is not enough to establish notability. Pretty much everything here is either the fairly local coverage from the Hastings Paper of the Mesabi Region Paper, coverage from internal Miss America organization sites, or one source is to her employer a local school district in Minnesota. We would need something either showing widespread notice either beyond the time of this one event or outside of Minnesota, notice that is substantial coverage (I put that because in other discussions people think a one line mention in a tabloid article about Miss America contestant actions is enough, and it is not), and my search for more sources on google came up with neither of those.

 * Whether or not Miss Minnesota by itself establishes notability, it is a title recognized in many places worldwide. Dravecky wrote this to the existing GNG standard in which Minnesota sources are fine.  They still are.  There is no "widespread notice" requirement.  Regarding the "one event" argument, the topic has been getting coverage since 2012 and a new article appeared in January 2017, and it has been explained more than once that Miss America contestants are always multiple events, including preliminary contests, the state pageant contest, multiple appearances during a one-year reign as titleholder, and an appearance at Miss America. And if notability is your concern, you can reorganize the topics so that they aren't in standalone articles...see WP:IGNORINGATD.  Unscintillating (talk) 02:32, 15 January 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete as trivia and fancruft on a subject with no indications of notability or significance; nothing stands out about this subject. Per prior outcomes, such articles are routinely deleted. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:43, 13 January 2017 (UTC)
 * Comment This article is part of Dravecky's Miss America 2016 project, where this article was completed in August 2015.  Here is what Dravecky said five days later in August 2015 at Wikiproject Beauty Pageants:"Miss America 2016 It took longer than I'd hoped but 52 articles donw (including a dozen DYKs and another half-dozen pending) all solidly referenced means the Miss America 2016 pageant field is the first complete set of contestant articles all the way from Miss Alabama 2015 Meg McGuffin to Miss Wyoming 2015 Mikaela Shaw. (Why 52? DC and Puerto Rico.) Now if only we had some photos to go with these articles.... - Dravecky (talk) 15:38, 12 August 2015 (UTC)      Great work, Dravecky! Thank you! Too bad the Virgin Islands pageant folded up shop this year, ha! Ejgreen77 (talk) 02:17, 13 August 2015 (UTC)"
 * And I agree, Dravecky's Miss America 2016 project is a treasure. Unscintillating (talk) 02:32, 15 January 2017 (UTC)
