If I have ever seen an article that stands up and shouts "this person is not notable" this article is it. Other than cites directly connected to beauty pageants, the only sources here are from the local Thief River Falls paper. This is a town well under 10,000. We do not have any indication that any media in the state of North Dakota felt it was worth noting she had been crowned Miss North Dakota USA. Only the paper in her small home town, across the state line in Minnesota. Just to show how not in the public eyeMathson is, the article speaks of what her current employment is, based on an article written 10 years ago. John Pack Lambert (talk) 06:53, 26 August 2016 (UTC)

- Redirect to Miss North Dakota USA as a valid search term, and the subject is mentioned there. North America1000 18:02, 1 September 2016 (UTC)

- Delete per WP:BIO1E; not otherwise notable. I don't believe a redirect is needed as the subject was unlikely to gain note for her name to become a valid search term. K.e.coffman (talk) 19:37, 5 September 2016 (UTC)

- Delete and then Redirect if needed, as there has been consensus at AfD there's absolutely no automatic or inherited notability from simply being at a beauty pageant or if there was a particular award at said pageant. SwisterTwister talk 07:17, 16 September 2016 (UTC)
