Hardin is not notable for anything, not even being a Miss USA contestant. That alone does not make her notable. The coverage we have of her has nothing to do with her. It has to do with the fact that an interviewer asked her which of two presidential candidates she would vote for, not even giving her 3rd party and indepedents as possible choices. Obviously I disagree with the formulation of the question, and I question whether is should have been asked at all. However the main point is her being asked the question and it receiving passing media attention does not make her as an individual notable.

Keep: I disagree, most of the articles about the controversy also focus on her, her thoughts, and how she answered it, not just the fact that the question was asked. I definitely think she has established notability. { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 16:36, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Keep: - per WP:GNG. and per coverage.BabbaQ (talk) 20:16, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: I created a ton of these articles back years ago and have largely let the AFDs pass as I think I'm on the losing side with these and I'm not in the mood to fight it. I would have to add that if Chelsea meets WP:BIO then the rest of the articles that have been deleted/redirected this week should have stood as well. So I'm really arguing against myself here. Immediacy has little to do with the issue of notability. PageantUpdater (talk) 12:45, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If found to not be independently notable, redirect to Miss Hawaii USA as a valid search term, and the subject is mentioned there. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 16:39, 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) 05:07, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
