Dubious notability. Article appears to have been created and maintained promotionally; after the bad sources and uncited promotional text were cut a few weeks ago, there's not much evidence of passing WP:GNG here. Google shows very little, GNews has 0 hits for "Cindy Villareal", Google newspaper search shows passing mentions, Google Books shows her own books on cheerleading but not a lot third-party.

  • Delete and I would've honestly PRODed, none of this comes close at all for actual independent notability and substance; all it contains are information parts about her career, from the sports to the publishing. SwisterTwister talk 22:49, 26 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete - the article states that she is a former Miss Texas, which would at least provide a path to notability (I would think that there is a reasonable chance that a Miss Large State would get some coverage somewhere, and a decent number of the recent Miss Texases have articles). But she does not appear on that list, so even that avenue seems closed. Rlendog (talk) 21:07, 27 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - Apart from the fact this article lacks notability and references are weak, there is clear evidence of COI - if you look back in the history of the edits, there is one user who keeps removing the negatives from this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7D:B3A9:1300:E9FE:87D0:C87:BE55 (talk) 20:50, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
    • Yeah, the history is heavily promotional, though the present cut-down version doesn't suffer it as much - David Gerard (talk) 20:58, 28 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
