(With some regret) Delete unless she meets Beauty Queen criteria for keeping, a subject on which I am no expert.

Delete - Author of a nonnotable book per
WP:NBOOK, president of a nonnotable organization per
WP:ORG (they just market her speaking gigs), does not meet
WP:AUTHOR nor
WP:NMODEL, may meet
WP:ANYBIO as being nominated numerous times for a significant award (if state level Miss and Mrs. USA awards are "well-known and significant" then she meets that). It's a poor argument (
WP:OTHERSTUFF) but it would appear that most
Miss North Carolina Teen USA are not included on Wikipedia so it likely isn't enough to merit notability. But meeting one or more of the previously mentioned criteria does not guarantee that a subject should be included so I'd like to check against
WP:BASIC for living people. And here she totally fails. There aren't multiple, independent secondary sources about Rachel Lee Carter to prove her notability. --

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Comment - this article also violates
WP:NOTADVERTISING. It would be wise to find some third party sources discussing her speaking engagements if this is going to remain on Wikipedia. --

Keep- While it needs cleanup she seems to meet
wp:bio. The coverage just for her win at the 2009 Mrs. North Carolina pagent seems to meet that criteria. I added some sources to the article. GtstrickyTalk or

DeleteWP:AUTHOR nor
WP:NMODEL seem like the relavent guidelines, and she doesn't meet either of them. Note that interview-based sources are not independent.

Delete for not meeting relevant guidelines and not otherwise appearing to meet
WP:GNG.

Delete this completely non-notable beauty-pageant contestant until she becomes governor of Alaska. Miserably fails
WP:AUTHOR and
WP:BK.
