The boy is popularized for just one single event, for calling out Bear grylls, that happened in 2018, more than a year ago. There is nothing enough to pass GNG that happened after that. Daiyusha (talk) 09:49, 12 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Likely to remain a WP:LPI so not notable as per WP:BLP1E. WP:GNG doesn't ask for being well-known for more than one event, e.g. Lee Harvey Oswald is only known for JFK's assasination. This article has significant coverage: multiple articles about him in detail. The articles also discuss things other than him calling out Bear Grylls, e.g. he was one of the first Britons to go on a climate strike and he was named young campaigner of the year . It also uses reliable sources: it refers to published articles, and WP:GNG also says the existence of secondary sources is a good test for notability - the sources do exist, so the article passes WP:GNG.

 * a bunch of schoolkids are protesting, he's not the only one. For a country like UK, i doubt that someone protesting against climate change in 2018 is considered one of the first. any major source wrote about him is only because of him commenting on bear grylls, or else he wouldn't be written about. I still believe this should be deleted as per WP:BLP1E Daiyusha (talk) 16:41, 12 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Actually, you're right, I agree he is likely to remain a WP:LPI. I have adjusted my vote accordingly.


 * Delete we need really good coverage to justify an article on a 12-year-old, and we do not in any way have that here.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:23, 13 January 2020 (UTC)
