No exact placements as of 2006
Detail of Miss Universe pageants in recent years, according to MUO website and Order of announcement during the Live Telecast - they are similar. There was no exact placements in top 10 and top 20 that year so please don't changed alphabetical order of country name. Thank you.
- Miss Universe 2006 :
- Note: There was a small order mistake of Denmark's placement on MUO website. There was no exact placements in top 10 and top 20 that year.
- Miss Universe 2007 :
- Official placements of Miss Universe 2007
- Miss Universe 2008 :
- Official placements of Miss Universe 2008

Addition of delegates to this list
When wikilinking to a delegate on this list, please remember to add the delegate to Category:Miss Universe 2006 delegates. -- P a g e a n t U p d a t e r 05:00, 7 June 2006 (UTC)
Predictions
I have removed the "predicted list of winners" per WP:Not a crystal ball. This should not be here, I think, unless it is cited from a reputable predictor.--Brian G 19:44, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Top 20 - Source?
I believe the note about there being a top twenty should not be included until there is a more reliable source than Global Beauties to verify it. Opinions? -- PageantUpdater • 21:58, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
Since when is Cyprus situated in Asia and Bahamas in Europe????
List of Delegates
I have two questions... first, should this even include a list of delegates (see Miss Universe 2005 and Miss Universe 2004, which did not include a list of delegates)... and second, if the list is retained, should it be separated into continents or be listed alphabetically? I would prefer alphabetically, because with the three-column formatting the headings are difficult to view and this list practically requires you to use "find" to find the delegate you want. -- PageantUpdater • 04:47, 24 July 2006 (UTC)
useful
Hey, this is quite a useful piece on the pageant. i have saved it in my local m/c lest some one remove the details )people have questioned there relevance.--Hydman 08:07, 27 July 2006 (UTC)
controversy removed?
why was the controversy portion removed? Live! 05:19, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
If you can rewrite it so that it has an encyclopaedic tone and is backed by reliable source evidence you are welcome to include it. In the form that it was in it was not suitable (I was not the one who deleted it but I agree with that decision). -- PageantUpdater • 05:53, 23 August 2006 (UTC)
I think this deserves to be mentioned, but we do need facts. At least a translation of what exactly the translator said to Miss Japan. I'll see if I can get my hands on one. Elmer92413 06:29, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Formatting of delegates table
I currently think the look of the delegates table is terrible and that there are MoS issues here. I propose removing all the bolding etc, but also think that the heights and ages should be removed to reduce space, and because I think this information is not necessary here. I propose redoing the table in the format of Miss Universe 2007. I will make the changes in a few days if there is no objection. -- PageantUpdater • 07:02, 13 April 2007 (UTC)
Do not delete the official Miss Universe link of the placements for Miss Universe 2006
Miss Universe 2006
Angelo de la Paz, the things you listed in regards to Miss Universe 2006 are irrelevant; it's your own interpretation and it has never been published in an official Miss Universe article.
An official article of the placings exists and it should have priority.
Wikipedia states that "Encyclopedic content must be verifiable"
Do not delete the official Miss Universe link of the placements:

I wonder that you don't understand what I am talking about, even it's English. I've given you all proofs (official related video clips and other pageant websites as Pageantopolis and Pageant-Almanac) that show MUO didn't arrange exact placements of top 10 and top 20 of Miss Universe 2006, as well as 2 latest editions as well. BTW, when you do that with only MU 2006 when Canada has placed for the last time? Not with 2007 and 2008 pageants which also have the same case with this one? Look and read it as more as you can to when you already understand it. Thank you. Angelo De La Paz (talk) 16:28, 15 March 2009 (UTC)
VANDALISM
Angelo de la Paz, this is your subjective interpretation based on your own assumptions. Your opinion is not neutral because you're deleting repeatedly the official Miss Universe link with the placements http://www.missuniverse.com/press/07.23.06.html
You are preventing other editors to add verifiable sources and this is against Wikipedia policies. What you are doing is vandalism.

Errors in the placements of Miss Universe 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, and 2002 listed on Wikipedia
All of Miss Universe 2008, 2007, 2006, 2005, 2004, and 2002 placements can be found on the official Miss Universe link http://www.missuniverse.com/press/index.html and they all have different placements than the ones listed on Wikipedia respective articles for each year. In some of them there isn't any source cited for the rankings, on others is cited only unofficial sources known for their errors http://www.pageantopolis.com/international/universe_2006.htm and http://www.pageant-almanac.com/miss-universe/semi-finalists.php
The general official site is given, but not the direct link http://www.missuniverse.com/press/index.html with all the information about the ranking in the above years.
The source http://www.pageant-almanac.com/miss-universe/semi-finalists.php is unreliable because they have listed the rankings for the rest of the top 15 in Miss Universe 2005, but the official site http://www.missuniverse.com/press/05.30.05.html doesn't have them even listed(they have only 10 listed).
Wikipedia's verifiability policy states that the standard is verifiability, meaning, whether readers are able to check that material added to Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, and this reliable source is http://www.missuniverse.com/press/05.30.05.html, not the websites of pageantpolis and pageantalmanac.Nfirm1295 (talk) 14:16, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
- I agree with your comments regarding verifiability, but the difficulty is that there is nothing on the Miss Universe press site link which states any reason that the contestants are listed that way - i.e. some recognition that they are "listed in alphabetical order", "listed in call-out order" or "listed in placement order". Making the assumption that they are in placement order is thus effectively original research. I'm trying to find a third-party source from a news organisation but no luck yet. My interpretation is that it would be acceptable to list them in either order here, either alphabetically with a disclaimer that it is alphabetical, or by the order listed on the Miss Universe site with no disclaimer as there is no such explanation available. PageantUpdater 23:30, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
Hello PageantUpdater and thank you for responding. I always enjoy reading your talk page because you always try to be as neutral as possible and to provide the most reliable sources.In regards to what you said above "Making the assumption that they are in placement order is thus effectively original research." I agree with. But isn't it original research also if you make the opposite assumption that they are not in placement order? At least if the contestants were listed in Wikipedia articles in the same order listed on the official site http://www.missuniverse.com/press/index.html, there wouldn't be any confusion because if people wanted to know more they could contact the original source (Miss Universe Organization, http://www.missuniverse.com/press/index.html).
Please, take a look at the Reference part of this article for example (Miss Universe 2006), and you will see that one of the editors has made all kinds of assumptions, he/she even listed "evidence" above which is original research and as you pointed out not acceptable, right? Is it an acceptable source if a contestant from any of the above years has mentioned her placement in an interview with a news organization in a video or article?
