Proposed article on David Schechter
Dr. Smith,

I am responding to your proposed article on David Schechter, as well as your discussion here. I am the editor who added the content about Schechter to the tension myositis syndrome article. I had considered writing a separate article on Schechter a while ago, but I couldn't find enough evidence that he meets the notability standards for Wikipedia. Looking at the sources you have come up with, I still don't think Schechter is notable.

There are three separate notability standards that apply here: WP:GNG, WP:ACADEMIC and WP:BIO. Schechter would only have to meet one of these to be considered notable. In all three of these standards, the philosophy is to make the criteria relatively objective for editors by depending upon reliable sources to do as much of the subjective work as possible. While different Wikipedia editors may disagree on whether a researcher is a pioneer or a crackpot, it should be easier for the editors to agree on whether there are reliable sources which show that the researcher meets the notability criteria. For example, to meet the WP:GNG standard, there would need to be multiple reliable sources which are independent of Schechter and provide significant coverage of Schechter. So far, I think that the U.S. News and World Report reference is the only independemt source to provide significant coverage, but this source is not enough by itself to say that Schechter is notable.
