Kyle Schole

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Very regional interest and single event. Notability not established. Merger has been proposed. WP:NEWSBRIEF, WP:1E Rainbowwrasse (talk) 11:26, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete – There is insufficient information from reliable sources to build an encyclopaedic biography – most of the press articles look like a rehash of material from a press release by the awardgiver. As far as the world is concerned, this is yet another teenager who won a science prize. and it remains to be seen whether the discovery is significant. -- Ohconfucius ¡digame! 16:27, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - clear case of WP:BLP1E. I don't think this story is notable enough for an article - possibly 2010 Canada Wide Science Fair might be, but I doubt it. I don't think there's any grounds for a merge here either, since he's just one of many past winners and there's no reason to highlight him in particular. Robofish (talk) 15:51, 30 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Delete - Kudos to Kyle Schole for his dedication to science, and reaping rewards from that hard work. However, this is a WP:BLP1E situation.  No prejudice to recreation if he goes on to greater things in the future. -- Whpq (talk) 14:22, 31 May 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep - While the article is not well developed, there are elements of some notability that could be added, including information from a segment on Kyle Schole from the nationally-aired Discovery Channel show "Daily Planet", or some of his other national-media coverage. I would suggest keeping this article for a few months to see if it improves or has significant additions. --GGG65 (talk) 00:50, 4 June 2011 (UTC)


 * Comment - While Kyle Schole's win at the Science Fair has received some nation-wide media attention, this was based on that single event and did not spawn any subsequent events of note, e.g controversies, comments, etc. I therefore would consider this a case of WP:NEWSBRIEF. The Daily Planet segment was pretty much a reprocessing of this material. If Kyle Schole's notability significantly increases in the future, he can always get a new article, but for the moment that's WP:CRYSTAL. -- Rainbowwrasse (talk) 11:42, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
