Singh has never won any major beauty pageant. She lost the Miss India competion, but was made winner when her predecessor was disqualified. She then lost at Miss Universe. We lack enough coverage of her for the article to pass the general notability guidelines. John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:10, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Weak keep. She did win, even if it was because of someone else's disqualification. Nearly all of the Miss Universe 2012 contestants have articles. I don't see why she should be excluded, seeing as she represented a large country and ranked in the top 16 in the competition. She gets a bit of newspaper coverage.[1][2] Clarityfiend (talk) 11:52, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment I personally think that Miss Universe and Miss World contestants are notable considering that these 2 are the world biggest pageants. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 13:06, 14 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete. She won by disqualification only, and as mentioned very little coverage. Iazyges (talk) 22:53, 15 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • Redirect to I AM She – Miss Universe India as a valid search term, and the subject is mentioned there. North America1000 06:50, 16 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) 05:11, 17 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
