notability

[edit]

It's crazy to imply, as it does on the main page, that John Seed may not be notable. He is one of the most important environmentalists of the last 40 years. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:6C55:7200:39F:1D45:27EA:2E9F:1A5F (talk) 20:23, 12 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I tend to agree. Because he's been active for almost half a century, most good sources about him are buried in offline sources or old articles that don't get a ton of traffic, so the references to him on the first page of search results look like they're not independent, which looks on the surface like he's not notable by Wikipedia's definition of notability. But I'm having a lot of luck digging just a little bit more. I'll add some of the references I'm finding to support information on the page, and we'll see where we end up, but personally I think the case for notability here is strong. - Astrophobe (talk) 19:06, 1 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
