@ Ronz: I understand the NotNews concern, yet this event has received significant coverage, not just in USA Today, whose reference was removed, but also by The New York Times, Washington Post, and elsewhere. To not include something about the allegation, would be a disservice to this article.-- RightCowLeftCoast ( talk) 18:20, 18 August 2018 (UTC)
Mund is giving interviews ( https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/gma-exclusive-miss-america-cara-mund-public-alleged/story?id=57352169 https://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/missamerica/miss-america-cara-mund-talks-gretchen-carlson-on-cnn/article_246ef645-bd89-5da5-a443-3808684c2509.html). Miss America Org seems to be withholding comment for the most part. I expect there will be some detailed reporting to draw from soon, especially if Miss America Org makes a substantial response.
It would be better to work on this at Miss America first, where BLP issues are easier to avoid and NOTNEWS problems are easier to address in the context of 90+ years of history. -- Ronz ( talk) 16:46, 24 August 2018 (UTC)
The recent changes [1] clearly don't have consensus, so should be removed while we work this out.
Lede: motivational speaker, American model, and
. Areas of notability should be given emphasis. No source has been indicated for modeling, nor is there any mention of modeling elsewhere in the article. The reference for her being a speaker is a press release, suggesting little or no encyclopedic value.
Speaker: The references are poor and demonstrate little or no encyclopedic value.
Education: Again, poor and promotional sources. WP:SOAP violation as sourced. The sources that were removed were far better. -- Hipal/Ronz ( talk) 18:38, 5 August 2020 (UTC)
Hello, I have been trying to figure out how to message you back. I hope this message finds you healthy and well. I have tried amending the citations to your criteria. I even added additional information and context from sources I found. I am just trying to update this biography. Please revert back to my past edit and let me know what more I can do.22:42, 6 August 2020 (UTC)
I saw inforum.com said Mund would be the first Congresswoman from North Dakota. But according to CNN, https://www.cnn.com/2022/08/09/politics/becca-balint-democratic-primary-vermont-house-seat/index.html only VERMONT has never had a woman in its Congressional Delegation. Now I checked Wikipedia, I can't find another woman from North Dakota in their Congressional Delegation, but there was a brief two or three week vacancy, perhaps a woman filled in then.?.?. this is worth researching.

Interesting to see that someone deleted the Harvard.edu source in here for its own award to Ms. Mund, saying "UNDUE" SoCalGoetz ( talk) 01:46, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
There was a contended sentence stating that in 2020, the Miss America leadership changed. There was no mention of causality in the statement and seems to be way, way off topic. I have removed it. Toddst1 ( talk) 16:00, 14 December 2022 (UTC)
