Wikipedia:WikiProject Deletion sorting/Venezuela

This is a collection of discussions on the deletion of articles related to Venezuela. It is one of many deletion lists coordinated by WikiProject Deletion sorting. Anyone can help maintain the list on this page.

Adding a new AfD discussion

Adding an AfD to this page does not add it to the main page at WP:AFD. Similarly, removing an AfD from this page does not remove it from the main page at WP:AFD. If you want to nominate an article for deletion, go through the process on that page before adding it to this page. To add a discussion to this page, follow these steps:

Edit this page and add {{Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/PageName}} to the top of the list. Replace "PageName" with the relevant article name, i.e. the one on the existing AFD discussion. Also, indicate the title of the article in the edit summary as it is particularly helpful to add a link to the article in the edit summary. When you save the page, the discussion will automatically appear.
You should also tag the AfD by adding {{subst:delsort|Venezuela|~~~~}} to it, which will inform editors that it has been listed here. You may place this tag above or below the nomination statement or at the end of the discussion thread.

There are a few scripts and tools that can make this easier.

Removing a closed AfD discussion

Closed AfD discussions are automatically removed by a bot.

Other types of discussions

You can also add and remove other discussions (prod, CfD, TfD etc.) related to Venezuela. For the other XfD's, the process is the same as AfD (except {{Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/PageName}} is used for MFD and {{transclude xfd}} for the rest). For PRODs, adding a link with {{prodded}} will suffice.

Further information

For further information see Wikipedia's deletion policy and WP:AfD for general information about Articles for Deletion, including a list of article deletions sorted by day of nomination.

This list is also part of the larger list of deletion debates related to South America.

Nonnotable minor league baseball player. Sources do not establish WP:GNG. Note this is a different person than the page deleted at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jesús Castillo (baseball) – Muboshgu (talk) 22:00, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nomination. Run of the mill non notable player.-- Yankees10 22:10, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Sourcing is routine coverage of baseball trades/transactions and there is no indication of individual player notability. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 22:29, 30 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Delete non-notable minor-league player, only WP:ROUTINE coverage is available. Frank Anchor 13:39, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete fails WP:GNG and WP:Athlete Agnieszka653 (talk) 14:53, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete -spot checks on current citations and additional searches show lack of SIGCOV to suggest notability. Lorraine Crane (talk) 19:33, 2 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

A person who won a single beauty pageant and apparently has no other coverage in reliable sources is treated by the WP:BLP1E policy. Article can be deleted. ☆ Bri (talk) 19:50, 27 November 2025 (UTC) I am also nominating the following related pages because they are contestants for the same pageant, articles created about the same time and in the same fashion. All have at most two citations. Many have one citation to pageantopolis.com, a fansite.[reply]

Delete all. As the nomination states, these all seem to be biography pages based on single events (or series of events if you want to consider each stop on the pageant circuit separate). These participants could be added to pages about the events if anyone is passionate about keeping the names somewhere. Anonrfjwhuikdzz (talk) 04:07, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Some sources in Spanish I have found about the pageants:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11], but I feel there's not enough WP:SIGCOV on this regard. However, I'll note that I haven't considered bibliographical sources and this magazine has interviews that could be used:[12]. I'd ask to consider possible references in Google Books considering the years of the pageants. --NoonIcarus (talk) 17:45, 28 November 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Delete With one exception (Niurka Acevedo) all of the information contained in these articles is already covered in List of Miss Venezuela titleholders. I did look at the magazine that NoonIcarus pointed out, and there are some articles but they are very "fluffy" - where they live, where they went to school, but nothing that would support notability. None of the other sources (I didn't look at all of them) show more than WP:1E. The possible exception is the one I noted above, but that article still needs more sourcing. I believe this !vote is consistent with WP:WikiProject Beauty Pageants/Notability (beauty pageant participants) Lamona (talk) 17:15, 1 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comment All articles of beauty contestants without a single picture should be deleted. /s Rolluik (talk) 11:04, 2 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]
