Delete per nomination: There are no reliable sources for the notability for this pageant that is now two years old and is unaffiliated with the Miss Japan and Miss Universe Japan pageants. Hey, but it has Facebook pages. Hithladaeus (talk) 19:48, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per above - No evidence of notability fails ORG + GNG. –Davey2010^Talk 20:39, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. All of the sources, with one exception, are of the usual fancruft-variety: blogs, forums, Facebook and Flickr. The one exception is Kobe Journal, but that article (which I translated through Google Translate) is all about a contestant who is said to prepare to go to Miss Grand International, and Miss Grand Japan isn't even mentioned in the article. Which under normal circumstances would qualify as a fake reference. Thomas.W ^talk 22:41, 1 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. As above, the references provided are either not reliable or do not actually mention Miss Grand Japan, so notability has not been established. --DAJF (talk) 04:57, 8 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
