- The subject has received significant coverage from reliable sources that are independent of the subject. (click to expand or collapse)CORRECT! Notability reflects the quality, availability, and independence of the information you use. You should try to find at least 3-5 good sources to help you establish notability for your subject.
- The subject is important, even if it's overlooked. (click to expand or collapse)INCORRECT! It's not always the case that important subjects are also the focus of a lot of literature. Unfortunately, Wikipedia can only summarize published sources of information. Sometimes that means important figures are left out until more high-quality sources are available.
