Within Wikipedia, '''notability''' is an inclusion criterion based on encyclopedic suitability of a topic for a Wikipedia article. The topic of an article should be notable, or "worthy of notice." Notability is distinct from "fame," "importance," or "popularity," although these may positively [[correlation|correlate]] with it. A topic is presumed to be sufficiently notable to merit an article if it meets the general notability guidelines below, or if it meets an accepted subject-specific standard listed in the table at the right. If an article currently does not cite reliable secondary sources, that does not necessarily mean that its topic is not notable.

 

== General notability guideline ==

If a '''topic''' has received significant coverage in [[Wikipedia:Reliable sources|reliable sources]] that are [[Wikipedia:Verifiability#Sources|independent]] of the subject, it is presumed to satisfy the inclusion criteria for a stand-alone article.

 

 

== <span id="OBJ" /> Notability requires objective evidence ==

The common theme in the notability guidelines is the requirement for verifiable objective evidence to support a claim of notability. Substantial coverage in reliable sources constitutes such objective evidence, as do published peer recognition and the other factors listed in the subject specific guidelines.

 

 

== <span id="TEMP" />Notability is not temporary ==

If a subject has met the general notability guideline, there is no need to show continual coverage or interest in the topic, though subjects that do not meet the guideline at one point in time may do so as time passes and more sources come into existence. However, articles should not be written based on [[Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not#Wikipedia is not a crystal ball|speculation]] that the topic may receive additional coverage in the future.

 

== <span id="NCONTENT" />Notability of article content ==

 

The notability guidelines determine whether a topic is notable enough to be a separate article in Wikipedia. Notability, in the sense used to determine article inclusion, does not directly affect article content.
