- The 2016 pageant is considered to be the most glamorous beauty pageant ever held in Sri Lanka which was organized by the Rotary Club of Colombo West. is a credible claim of significance, so A7 does not apply. SSTflyer 16:38, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  - Comment Who is Rotary Club of Colombo West. Are they notable? Does their statement have any credibility. They lack a Wikipedia article and would be likely be deemed not notable if one was made. Secondly, they helped organize this pageant 'Rotary Cub of Colombo West Organizes "Miss Intercontinental Sri Lanka" as its first Fund Raising Project' per their facebook page. So their claim is not self serving and not credible. A google search would have told you all of this. The article doesn't make the claim but the article's headline. Article headlines aren't a RS. They are usually written by someone other than the article's author and with the purpose of drawing readers to the article....William, is the complaint department really on the roof? 16:48, 24 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete the article is clearly not notable and the main article "Miss Intercontinental" was deleted many times.--Richie Campbell (talk) 12:42, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

comment sri lanka is an island nation that was ravages by a 30 year war, now with the dawn of peace for the first time in the countrys history an international beauty pageant will be held with 70 participants from all over the world.this was made possible because of the success of the local pageant and it is of immense significance to the country as it is considered the grandest ever held, the article is backed by references from news sources and are not fabrications or a method to promote anyone or any organization. it is a significant milestone in the history of sri lanka and hence should be treated as such, deletion of this article is unfair to say the least, the reference to Rotary can be deleted although it is the largest charity organization in sri lanka — Preceding unsigned comment added by Olivia emirates (talk • contribs) 14:19, 25 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
