Delete and salt . Promotion of a nonnotable pageant. Staszek Lem (talk) 23:34, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

• Weak delete, more references could potentially redeem. As far as the article itself, the only notable references I saw in the article were CNN/People and those articles used unflattering titles related to Miss Iceland's body weight. Also, even though the pageant was held in the USA, I found a lack of American news coverage from mainstream sources. But the article could potentially be a keep as Google News listed a number of notable newspaper references in non-American/European countries and it is an international pageant (Times of India, etc.).[1] Also, on the positive side, I googled the pageant's name and found a ton of search results (About 1,690,000 results).[2] The beauty pageant appear to have a following as some of its YouTube videos have high view counts (tens of thousands of views). For example, its main video for 2016 has over 170,000 views.[3] But that could merely be due the nature of the video (swimsuit competition). Its Facebook page has over a million likes, but in these days of reports of fake likes, this doesn't carry a lot of weight. Knox490 (talk)

• Delete due to the souces failing to indicate notabilty: they are either passing mentions, in the contaxt of the models, or SPS / WP:PRIMARY. Either way, mass failure of WP:GNG requirements. — O Fortuna ^{semper crescis, aut decrescis} 12:02, 16 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
