This guideline helps to clarify the notability question. In some cases, you may need to justify to other Wikipedians why the article topic is notable and should remain in Wikipedia. Coverage in published, reliable, secondary sources that are entirely independent of the subject, and which treat the subject in substantive detail is the key to ...
Having published work does not, in itself, make an academic notable, no matter how many publications there are. Notability depends on the impact the work has had on the field of study. This notability guideline specifies criteria for judging the notability of an academic through reliable sources for the impact of their work.
Notability The basic requirement for a topic to have its own article is: significant coverage in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. significant coverage means that sources address the subject directly in detail, so no original research is needed to extract the content.
The general notability guideline creates a presumption of notability. The presumption (or assumption) is that a topic that has received significant coverage in independent, reliable sources should have a Wikipedia article written about it.

If a topic has received important coverage in reliable sources that are independent of the subject, it is presumed to be notable. "Presumed" means if there is actual and real coverage in a number of independent reliable sources, then we presume the topic is notable.Non-notability is based only on a lack of suitable evidence of notability, and no longer applies once evidence is found.
