Seems to be only 'famous' for one newspaper article and being possibly, but not confirmed, a relative of Abby Clancy. See WP:ONEEVENT and WP:NOTNEWS. Spiderone 08:27, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Indeed he is the subject of one article in the British tabloid The Sun and that is basically it. Newspapers and tabloids always feature "example citizen" in their stories to get their point across, that makes those persons not notable. Apart from this single article in The Sun there is literally nothing out there on him. He is not a "personality" at all, he is just an example (one of many) used by The Sun to underline their story about teens using mobile phones. I dont even think that WP:SINGLEEVENT does apply, because there isnt even an event at all, he is just a completely non notable person. The article should therefore be deleted on the ground of general non-notability per WP:GNG. Dead Mary (talk) 16:08, 28 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Utterly non-notable person who is 14 years old. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 02:22, 31 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Delete I agree he only had 1 interview in the sun so fails WP:ONEEVENT, However I would like to point out to User:Cullen328 that the subject is almost 16 (seeing as he was 14 in the article a year and a half ago), not 14 as claimed.

Reply @AlessandroTiandelli333: OK, he is a 15 year old minor now, but all he has done that has attracted notice is get interviewed by a newspaper about his smart phone usage when he was 14. The notion that he is somehow notable because of that single newspaper article is ludicrous. Cullen³²⁸ Let's discuss it 16:38, 2 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
