Tahiti, not French Polynesia

The new Miss French Polynesia, the only debut in Miss World 2009, changed her name to Miss Tahiti. The notice cames from the bellezadelmundo.com and Missworld.com sites. The country will not debut, but will return after three years of absence to Miss World. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 93.144.197.176 (talk) 18:47, 5 September 2009 (UTC)

Miss Singapore Replacement A Filipina

Mbell 791983 (talk) 10:53, 13 December 2009 (UTC)I agree. Pilar Carmelita Arlando (Miss World Singapore 2009 2nd runner up and official Miss World delegate) is unaware of Singapore's culture due to the fact that she was a Filipina immigrant and never experienced traveling in Singapore.

In the article, it was stated that Miss France and Miss Canada are both 3rd and 4th runners-up respectively. The official site however, did not mention that statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 115.132.131.255 (talk) 13:02, 13 December 2009 (UTC)

All the links to missworld.com are broken and/or are useless

We need to think of another strategy than using missworld.com as reference, all the links are either broken or will be useless very soon.
For example, look at the link for Miss France [1], because it does not contain her name, (Chloé Mortaud), the same link will almost certainly be used for Miss World 2010, we need to either remove those external links or find something more permanent.
I propose that we remove the external link and rather keep the link to the article or the Miss in question, all the information about her should in it anyway, (and editors will ensure that the data is up to date there). FFMG (talk) 06:55, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

See Wikipedia:Using WebCite in order to create archive of the Miss World web pages being referenced. --NJR_ZA (talk) 07:04, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Maybe, but I don't think in this case it would make sense, the article link on wikipedia is often better and has more references than the missworld.com alternative, compare Chloé Mortaud on missworld.com and Chloé Mortaud on Wikipedia. FFMG (talk) 07:28, 8 January 2010 (UTC)

Judges section restored

I have restored the judges section content (diff). The content is directly relevant, significant and of importance relative to the article's topic, and its omission reduces the quality of the article. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 09:27, 21 January 2016 (UTC)
