Fails WP:GNG, no independent sourcing as required by WP:RS The Banner talk 19:38, 28 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

To establish notabilty under WP:GNG we need coverage in "reliable sources which are independent of the subject". The Bangkok Post and The Nation are major metropolitan newspapers that are reliable sources under the guideline, there can't be any doubt about it, or do you question that? Now, how would they be related to the Miss Grand Thailand pageant? See Wikipedia:Independent sources#Examples, and tell me which one is it, "Owner, employees, corporate website, sales brochure, competitor"? Kraxler (talk) 17:34, 29 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
