Speedy tag was contested. There do seem to be claims of notability, but it also seems the article was written by a publicist. I can't find much to back up their claims but to be safe I'm bringing it here. cholmes75 (chit chat) 17:04, 18 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete I speedied it originally. There are hundreds of these pageants in just about every country worldwide. The vast majority of them, and their contestants such as Stefany, just aren't notable. Dipics 16:55, 19 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Comment - While it fair to note that there certainly many pageants worldwide that is actually not the case in Canada - there are a handful of pageants that survive more than one year, and seeing as Canada is a very muliticultural country there is an emphasis placed on the celebration of culture and heritage. Much of what is mentioned pertaining to pageants on wikipedia are a result of media history coverage. If you are able to understand Spanish, then it would be best to note the international media coverage given to Canada regarding this event. It would appears that their winners travel to South America to perform philanthropic duties. There is only 2 other Canadian pageants that may do this - Miss World Canada, and Miss Universe Canada - which are notably on wikidpedia. This organization is the only one of its kind for the Latin community at this time - there is no prior history of any such event or organization offered to this community. I have checked with the Ontario Buisness Bureau - the company was registered in the Province of Ontario in 2004 as a special event planning company. Liscening reviews show that the trademark for the International franchise is indeed registered with the U.S Patent and Trademark Office, registered under a Dawn Ramos Productions since 1992. Resaerch on the international company does direct you to this woman who is carrying the Canadian franchise rights. The local media contact for the Latin Community known as TLN (TeleLatino), and Toronto Hispano, have both confirmed that there is no other pageant for Latin-Canadians where they represent the country, aside from this one operated by a Miss Singh. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.121.44.36 (talk • contribs)
- Comment I note that the Miss India-Canada hits higher on google than this pageant. As does Miss Canada Teen Global and Miss Canada International. Let's not forget Miss All Canadian, Miss Canada Plus... I don't see any of these articles listed in Wikipedia. For good reason. They are just non-notable. As is this one. Plus add to this the ugly fact that it is likely just a vanity article. Note the original author. Dipics 16:58, 21 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
- Strong Delete A 15 Contestant beauty contest? Just looking at the web page with it's small contestant pool and modeling-school quality (that is NOT a compliment) seamless white paper background "portfolio" of the current winner, it is obvious to me that this is just a small-time pageant. Not notable at all. Beaner1 13:10, 23 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
