The result was keep as he has received media coverage not directly related to the iPhone hacking (e.g., his science project, what he's doing with his life now). WP:BLP1E does not apply because of that additional coverage. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 20:19, 9 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I feel that the George Hotz article should be deleted because the subject is not notable enough per WP:BIO guidelines.
The person has made a widely recognized contribution that is part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field
His unlocking the iPhone was received media coverage because of the iPhone's widespread popularity. However, this does not mean he is notable enough to be "part of the enduring historical record in his or her specific field." If this passes the bar for inclusion into the Wikipedia, then what about all the other hackers out there who cracked Windows, the Wii, or any other widely-used consumer product? (Sure, some of these people may wish to remain anonymous, but that's beyond the point.)
Hotz has very little claim to fame besides the iPhone. His award at an Intel competition geared towards high school students is not notable enough.
