Article was speedily deleted (A7). The article had a claim of significance or importance by stating the subject of the article was the 2012 International Junior Miss Maryland. Criteria A7 states: " The criterion does not apply to any article that makes any credible claim of significance or importance even if the claim is not supported by a reliable source or does not qualify on Wikipedia's notability guidelines." On the talk page the nominator stated that the references showed that Clark competed in the contest, which would make the claim credible. Both the nominator and the admin focused on the notability of Clark instead of the proper standard of a claim of significance or importance. Based on this, I believe that the matter should have been taken to an AfD instead of speedily deleted. I have discussed this with the deleting admin [en.wikipedia.org/?title=User_talk:Rmhermen&oldid=507626484], [en.wikipedia.org/?title=User_talk:Rmhermen&direction=next&oldid=507627748], and [en.wikipedia.org/?title=User_talk:Rmhermen&direction=next&oldid=507628912]. Per his (or her, sorry, I don't know their gender) suggestion, I brought it here for review. I believe that the article should be restored, and if it is to be deleted, should be via the AfD process. Also, the admin Rmhermen ( talk · contribs) stated that the review was based on if the article would survive an AfD, which I don't believe is the proper standard.
