The result was keep‎. This is not casting aspersions but don't nominate an article for deletion because "I don't think he really meets notability guidelines". There is a lot of uncertainty in a statement like that and "he doesn't strike me as notable" opens the door to editors who DO think he strikes them as notable. I'm not singling out this AFD because I see this a lot in AFDLand but if you aren't sure there is notability present or you haven't done a thorough BEFORE, then a nomination for deletion isn't called for. Really. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 22:51, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

This kid is pretty good at getting his viewpoint in the media but I don't think he really meets notability guidelines. Maybe someday. —Chowbok ☠ 19:00, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Being young and receiving media coverage are not valid reasons for deletion. Easily meets GNG with significant coverage in Yahoo, Teen Vogue, CBS News, ABC News, and many more. gobonobo ⁺ ^c 03:46, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
User:Chowbok, this is a really poor rationale for deletion. Drmies (talk) 22:52, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Maybe I expressed it poorly. I'm just saying that he's only received trivial news coverage, and he doesn't strike me as notable. If I'm wrong, then !vote against it, no reason to cast aspersions.—Chowbok ☠ 01:49, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Keep - he has been involved in several protests and has gotten sustained, significant coverage. Bearian (talk) 18:52, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- User:Bearian, do you mind having a look at the article and its recent history? There's fighting going on, BLP accusations, etc.--the article needs an experienced user. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 15:50, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe we can get this page-protected. I am no longer and admin and can't protect it. Bearian (talk) 17:00, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. Subject passes WP:GNG. -The Gnome (talk) 15:34, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
