Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Valentina (drag queen) (2nd nomination)
Non-winning competitors on reality shows are not automatically deemed to pass  just because of the purely  coverage that they ''automatically'' generate by virtue of being on a reality show — ''every'' queen on ''RPDR'', absolutely without exception, ''always'' gets a blip of  coverage in the first day or two immediately after she loses a lipsync and sashays away, so that isn't coverage that can be used to show her as ''more'' notable than the norm in and of itself. Rather, what's required is for the substance and sourcing to show her as notable for ''more'' than just the fact of being on ''RPDR'' itself: Alaska, for example, did not get an article because ''RPDR'', but because she leveraged her ''RPDR'' exposure into recording an ''album'' that hit the ''Billboard'' charts. (And then she won ''AS2'', yes, but that was just gravy because she'd already cleared .) The queen who ''wins'' the season in a few weeks will get an article on ''that'' basis — but merely being ''on'' the season is not grounds for a standalone article in and of itself, and anybody who doesn't win still has to build her notability the same way as any queen who wasn't on the show at all: by working her kitty off and getting media coverage for ''that''. It's simply  to know if any of these queens will manage that. And just to be clear, I'm a loyal ''RPDR'' viewer who gets together with my gaggle of gays every week at the bar to watch it in a party atmosphere — although I'm going to miss the finale this year because I have to go out of town for family stuff, harrumph harrumph — so this is not about lack of familiarity with any of them. But "was on a reality show" is not a ''Wikipedia'' inclusion criterion in and of itself — regardless of whether they're a drag queen on ''RPDR'' or an EMS worker appearing on ''Survivor'', a person gets an article either for ''winning'' a reality show, or for ''leveraging'' their 15 minutes of fame into something ''more'' than "appeared on a reality show and lost, the end
