Comment: cf. #NEWS. Good for the kid, but really he's not done anything yet except generate a few news reports

Comment: The problem here for me, is that the coverage in CNN is significant, focused on the subject primarily, and explicitly touts him as a prodigy of great prospects. To quote , "A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject." A full length CNN profile qualifies on all those counts. This is not a news article about a passing event in the full spirit of #NEWS, even if it happens to be on a news site. That said, this is the ''only'' significant piece of coverage he has so far, and I don't believe he has demonstrated any enduring historical notability in the colloquial, rather than strict criteria-based, sense of the term. So, letter of the guideline says he passes, but so far there's not quite enough buzz for me to let it through
