There has been a notability tag since October 2021. The first sentence of the article is "Hunter Scott is best known for the research he did on the sinking of USS Indianapolis as a sixth-grade student." I would go so far to say that he is only known for this accomplishment. As such, this is a BLP1E and the article should be deleted. He has not done any academic work since so no further historical work, so does not meet the criteria for academics. In an effort to add information so the article focuses on more facts, it also mentions he is a naval aviator. However, it provides no context to presume that his naval aviation career would meet GNG. An incredibly accomplished individual, nevertheless Wikipedia's policies indicate, in my opinion, there should not be an article on the subject. Mpen320 (talk) 20:25, 12 April 2024 (UTC)
