Mitter is not notable. Winning Miss Vermont USA is not enough to make someone notable. The fact that some of the sources used, such as her birth record, are primary sources, is another indication that this is not a notable person. When original research is used to create a Wikipedia article, the subject is generally not notable. John Pack Lambert (talk) 07:07, 10 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete as per nominator. My sweeps came up without much dust except for an occasional mention.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 14:51, 10 August 2016 (UTC) Or Redirect as per NorthAmerica.--Tomwsulcer (talk) 18:00, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - a non notable pageant contestant. All sources used in the article are primary. My searches find no sources. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:40, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, not notable for stand alone article. Her name is mentioned in the Miss USA contest article for that year, which is enough. She did not win, was not runner-up and was not even in the top 15. Kierzek (talk) 21:39, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Redirect to Miss Vermont USA as a valid search term, and the subject is mentioned there. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 17:04, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep for now. Discussion about notability guidelines has already started on the Talk page for the Beauty Pageant project. No harm will be done by closing this nomination as "keep" and letting the project-level discussion take its course. NewYorkActuary (talk) 04:10, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Comment -- I don't believe that the above suggestion is a good idea. This is looking to be a solid detele/redirect. I suggest that the existing nominations be evaluated on their own merit. K.e.coffman (talk) 04:14, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Comment: The discussion on pageant winners' notability is taking place here: RFC on creation of consensus standard, with participants variously advocating that (1) state level winners are not presumed notable, (2) state-level winners are not presumed non-notable; or (3) a special guideline is unnecessary, and that GNG should be used. There's an overlap between the these three positions. There aren't really voices for "state-level winners are always presumed notable" so I don't think the outcome of the discussion, if any, would have an impact on this AfD, which is trying to establish whether the subject meets GNG. Thus it may not make sense to suspend the AfD process for this nomination.

Further, a deletion is preferred as a BLP for a non-notable person is potential invasion of privacy and may be subject to vandalism. K.e.coffman (talk) 03:40, 21 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
