Deletion of Miss BC

Comment: I originally closed this unaware of the sock-puppetry situation. I'll give my reasoning for that here, and let somebody else decide, then: many of the arguments very obviously fall into WP:AADD (eg. "This pageant is a big deal in BC..." which is ). What remains are the two conflicting statements "next to no coverage in reliable sources" and "there seems to be substantial and ongoing coverage of this pageant in multiple reliable sources". Only one of these two can be true. A look at the references cited, despite the issues of cite-bombing ( which I pointed out at the time), seems to render the delete argument invalid ("references don't demonstrate notability" was also particularly puzzling, there's AFAIK no requirement that references demonstrate that a subject is "notable" or otherwise "extraordinary", only that they cover said subject to an appreciable depth), since a lot of those references are indeed coverage about the pageant (or it's winners...) in reliable independent sources

Comment: There is been 10 edits on it, outwith the sock, of which about 8 are rollbacks, bots, removing a link and category updates and so on, leaving 2 genuine edits to the article itself. The version history is stonkingly bad. I think it should be 'd, and restarted as a nice clean article, by somebody else. I think it should go. Does anybody a view on that
