Notability discussion July 2010
[edit]Regina Saphier lives in Hungary. I live in Croatia. She has single handedly accomplished a great deal in terms of brain gain and repatriation for Hungary. Google the subjects and one will find that this service is exemplary. In my article I didn't comment on this. In terms of notability, it is hard to find any other source that could match the unique contribution she has made to Hungary. Notability is supposed to be a primary criterion for Wikipedia. Correct me please if I am wrong.Joseph molitorisz (talk) 18:03, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
Brain gain and repatriation are HUGE issues in these eastern European countries and Wikipedia can get itself up to date on this with articles like the one on Regina Saphier.Joseph molitorisz (talk) 18:09, 11 July 2010 (UTC)
The issue of notability has been addressed in the edit I have completed.Joseph molitorisz (talk) 05:23, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
- In Hungary this person in her field carried out something remarkable as a civic activist that no other person ever attempted since the iron curtain fell. Out of nowhere she created a civic organization, built a community. The links are articles in magazines, some are even academic research articles where her pioneer work and research are mentioned. She did something remarkable and people who care about returning know that. Just because you can’t read in Hungarian, you believe she is unremarkable? That is prejudice and discrimination based on language. Her work has internationally and regionally relevant aspects as well, so has to be available in English. But of course it is not her fault that the editor of her wiki page has limitations and probably has little idea about how to set up a wiki page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rkaroly (talk • contribs) 12:00, 12 July 2010 (UTC)
