DeleteAustralia's brainiest kid? Sound like a hoax. Eivind 10:24, 4 March 2006 (UTC)- There was a TV show by that name, Australia's Brainiest Kid (groan), based on a UK series, and diversified out into several "Australia's Brainiest (insert profession or claim to 'fame' here)" specials. Yes, William won the Channel Ten season. Yes, he was a primary-age school kid at the time of the event, and has now entered high school. Delete and recreate as redirect to Australia's Brainiest Kid. There is no need to merge the factoids concerning his present and current schools, everything else is already in the article. -- Saberwyn 22:16, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- I stand corrected. Redirect Australia's Brainiest Kid. Eivind 12:58, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

- delete, even though the Xi surname is iirc Chinese (which I am also). NN. Chris Chan.talk.contribs 15:22, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
- Redirect to Australia's Brainiest Kid. While winning this competition is a claim to fame, a search of an Australian and New Zealand media database for "William Xi" came up with two articles. Given that it is unlikely that he will rise in notability in the immediate future, a redirect would be appropriate. By the way, I don't think this is a vanity article because I assume that Australia's Brainiest Kid could spell his school - I fixed it. Capitalistroadster 22:46, 4 March 2006 (UTC)
