Not a prodigy by the normal definition of doing as well as an adult expert'

Soborno just won "Global Child Prodigy Award" in Chemistry. He went to India last month to receive this prize from Nobel Prize Winner Kailash Satyarthi.GyllenhalMike (talk) 11:18, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I notice from the caption that an educator named him the "Einstein of our time" for his proficiency in the math, physics, and chemistry.. ." Einstein, did not show signs of his later genius at an early age, so it's a rather strange comparison. I cannot read most of the references, but they seem PR/human interest, not genuine news stories, for there is no genuine news.

Soborno Isaac received this title from Former City College of New York President Lisa Coico. Check this, https://www.thehindu.com/news/cities/mumbai/a-wunderkinds-battle-to-trounce-terrorism-by-unleashing-a-love-for-science/article30498316.ece

When I see articles like this, my thoughts turn to parental exploitation of their children. DGG ( talk ) 09:58, 5 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

delete the subject doesnt pass general notability criteria. However, churnalism, paid articles, press releases, and routine coverage give an illusion of significant coverage. User generated websites are not reliable sources, but an answer to this question on quora sums it nicely: he recites physics without understanding it. This article (used in the wikipedia article) is a reprint of "Arabian Post", as can be seen at the bottom. Most of the sources are like this. I could not find any reliable source stating he has been to "Voice of America". There is a huge difference in knowledge, and intelligence, this kid has knowledge, not intelligence. None of the sources say he has been scientifically proven to be a prodigy. All the sources say someone or other called him a prodigy. Everything I saw was a puff piece praising the subject. Not genuine news or article covering him. Having meetings with head of states, or educationalists/academics/scholars, does not conform notability. These people always meet bright kids. I spent a lot of time searching about the subject (a little every day, for 4-5 days). Now I believe this is a work of strategical PR agency. In any case: there are no genuine articles/news with significant coverage of the subject. Whatever out there is routine coverage, press releases, and churnalism. Hence subject fails general notability criteria. —usernamekiran (talk) 21:01, 10 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
