Talk:Tomoyuki Arakawa

General notability
, you removed the notability tag which had said this article may not meet Wikipedia's general notability guideline. Can you show that the article meets WP:GNG? In your edit summary you said Winning an award is only an additional criteria, and is useful when the basic criteria is met. See WP:Notability (people). Jay 💬 10:33, 12 August 2022 (UTC)


 * As I understand, winning a prestigious award or receiving a honor (e.g., an invited speaker at ICM) is sufficient; see e.g., Notability_(academics). As I wrote before, if the notability is in doubt, an AfD is a correct avenue to discuss the fate of the article. —- Taku (talk) 10:38, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * Oh, and if you are concerned about the existence of independent sources, that seems clear: Googling with "荒川 知幸" yields many sources (although I am not sure which ones are the best). —- Taku (talk) 10:47, 12 August 2022 (UTC)
 * I have not checked for foreign sources. If there are many, then it may meet GNG. I have now tagged the article with Sources exist. Jay  💬 11:49, 12 August 2022 (UTC)

I left the following feedback for the creator/future reviewers while reviewing this article: Looks like an WP:NPROF pass through numerous well-cited papers on W-algebras. Potentially WP:NPROF-notable through the award..
