I am not convinced that even winning Miss USA itself is enough to make a person notable. I am not convinced we have enough sources to demonstrate that Barber is notable. John Pack Lambert (talk) 16:23, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Extremely strong keep: She's a Miss USA winner, the most covered pageant in the country, and will compete at Miss Universe, which is one of the largest and most notable pageants in the world. Not to mention she also received significant coverage in the media for being the first military member to win Miss USA. I don't think there's a problem with sources but more can be added if that's the issue. { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 16:26, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
- Now looking at the page, there are definitely not enough sources and I don't know why that is. I will add more. { [ ( jjj 1238 ) ] } 16:28, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: - she is the current Miss USA. Article notability is not based on article quality. The quality can be fixed by improvements. also per WP:GNG.BabbaQ (talk) 20:17, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
WP:IDONTLIKEIT is irrelevant to guidelines as well.BabbaQ (talk) 20:18, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep - per JudgeRM, article is properly referenced with reliable sources. —Oluwa2Chainz »» (talk to me) 21:12, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I just love how I got someone to !vote "per JudgeRM" even though the only thing I did was add DELSORT. Anyways, GNG appears to have been met, so unless someone can convince me otherwise, keep. JudgeRM (talk to me) 00:40, 13 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Strong keep national Miss USA winner, significant media coverage, also I think it's pretty poor that JohnPackLambert went and redirected this in the first instance with no discussion. State titleholders are one thing - and even I'm coming around to that - but this one definitely called for discussion. PageantUpdater (talk) 13:00, 13 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) 05:05, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
