 * Delete I had a look at this an the sources unfortunately are not good enough. This is essentially a human interest story and a biography about a generally low profile individual and is precisely what WP:BLP1E is about. The coverage is also largely local and a bunch of primary sources have been used in the article. Let's have a look at the sources.


 * amysmartgirls.com This is essentially and an interview. Contributor articles are essentially WP:SPS. In addition, this is also an interview. We require reliable secondary sources.
 * www.perkinselearning.org Not a reliable source. This is a mention on the website of a private institution - and is a puff piece..
 * www.projectcsgirls.com This is . Not an independent source. See short descriptions (in no particular order) of our finalists' projects written by the girls themselves. In addition, this is a
 * science-fair.org . Mentions name of subject but nothing more
 * www.sciencenewsforstudents.org . The website also isn't exactly a reputable news source.
 * The 30 most impressive science fair projects in the country . Every single finalist of the Broadcom project is listed. The actual coverage is very very brief (3 sentences) and is literally a passing mention.
 * White House Science Fair 2016 - and essentially a press release by the white house listing the students.
 * DUPLICATE article - This is of #6
 * ABC news - Feature on the subject. Although the format essentially indicates a human interest story, the reference is still useful..
 * scifair.com . Only mentions name of the subject.
 * santacruzsentinel.com . These are not useful for GNG because local sources put too much coverage on local individuals of even a little interest.
 * telegraph.co.uk . (2 sentences of which 1 is quote).
 * Mercury news reporting about the white house science fair. There are brief mentions of 4 bay area participants.
 * perkinselearning.org Same source as #2 and is actually.
 * reachoutradio.org . It actually links to the ABC post #9. This is.
 * student.societyforscience.org again. (The website of the insititution which awards the broadcom masters)
 * projectcsgirls.com . Also primary source
 * perkinselearning.org.Same source as #2 and is actually.
 * donumvisi.org
 * tsbvi.edu Event listing which simply contains a of the subject's name. Also
 * societyforscience.org . See #16
 * thereporter.com This is a of the Mercury News article (which itself is a local source). Reprints are not considered unique sources anyway.
 * science-fair.org with no additional information. Same website as #4
 * ssd.jpl.nasa.gov listing name of Asteroid. For perspective, 1500 science fair winners have Asteroids named after them
 * obamawhitehouse.archives.gov
 * Youtube White house . Essentially the subject talking for a brief moment.
 * raspberrypi.org This is . Raspberry Pi newsletter simply collects news even minutely related to raspberry.
 * mercurynews.com This is again a


 * According to the analysis above, I only find 1 ABCnews feature which offers significant coverage. The article is heavily WP:REFBOMBed with primary sources and these do not help for notability. In addition, many of the sources are essentially the subject talking about themselves. All of this goes against WP:WHYN (the reason why we have notability guidelines). We require reliable secondary sources so that we are able to write an NPOV article. The article as it stands now is very much a WP:PROMO article.
 * I also think this is WP:TOOSOON. There have been many such children who have won science fairs. Many of them may have received local news coverage due to the event, but not much coverage later. This doesn't make them notable.
