Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Jacob Barnett (4th nomination)
for all the same reasons I voted delete in the three previous AfDs: although there is plenty of media coverage, it consists entirely of puffery, and much of it is verifiably false. If we have an article, the only thing we can say about the subject with any intellectual honesty is that he is known for the false claims that he would soon overthrow Einstein, in promotion of his mother's book. That is just an embarrassment to the subject, that is going to stand as an obstacle to the legitimate scholarly career he appears to be aiming towards (but has no notability for yet). He is very far from , so it is not possible to recenter the article to ignore the media circus and only discuss his academic activities; an article alone those lines would invite an immediate A7 deletion, because he has no claim of significance as a researcher yet. Better to have no article at all. That all said, I expect this article to be kept, just as it has in two of the three previous deletion discussions, by the legions of editors who see the many high-profile sources about the subject but do not put any critical thinking towards the quality of those sources
