Wikipedia Notability Assessment
Find out whether the subject is ready for Wikipedia before a draft is written.
Wikipedia notability is an evidence question, not a résumé score. Stonebridge evaluates significant coverage in reliable, independent sources, identifies policy and conflict-of-interest risks, and gives a candid proceed, wait or do-not-pursue recommendation.

Scope assurance
A clear scope before work begins.
A guarantee applies only when it is expressly stated in the written service agreement. If that guaranteed deliverable is not delivered within the agreed contractual timeline, the client is entitled to a full refund for that specific undelivered service. Sales, rankings, editorial decisions and other third-party outcomes are not guaranteed.
- Findings tied to observable evidence
- Current requirements checked where platform rules matter
- Owned corrections separated from third-party requests
- No fabricated authority, acceptance or placement claims
Project fit
A strong engagement starts with the right conditions.
Wikipedia Notability Assessment fit depends on the available evidence, access, service boundary and the client’s willingness to accept an honest diagnostic result.
Strong fit
- ✓ Subjects with multiple substantial independent sources
- ✓ Clients seeking an eligibility answer before spending on a draft
- ✓ Teams willing to accept a wait or no recommendation
- ✓ Projects committed to disclosure and editorial independence
Not a fit
- × Expecting Stonebridge’s contract to override Wikipedia’s independent decisions
- × Using press releases as independent notability evidence
- × Concealing paid involvement
- × Commissioning thin coverage to manufacture eligibility

Wikipedia’s general guideline looks for significant coverage in reliable sources independent of the subject, with additional topic-specific guidance sometimes applying. The assessment weighs the actual sources; prominence alone is not enough.
How many articles do I need?
Wikipedia does not set one universal number. Depth, reliability, independence and the overall evidence pattern matter more than a simple count.
Do press releases count?
They can verify limited facts in some contexts but are not independent evidence of notability because they originate from or for the subject.
Does a Forbes article count?
The outlet name alone does not decide it. Authorship, editorial process, independence, depth and the specific page type must be evaluated.
Does revenue or an award guarantee eligibility?
No. Business scale, awards or credentials may be relevant, but notability depends on applicable guidelines and qualifying source coverage.
Can Stonebridge guarantee a Wikipedia page?
Only for an eligible new-page project that Stonebridge has assessed, accepted and expressly guaranteed in the written service agreement. This is Stonebridge’s contractual deliverable, not Wikipedia approval or permanence. If the guaranteed publication deliverable is not delivered within the agreed contractual timeline, the client is entitled to a full refund for that specific undelivered service. Wikipedia’s independent editors retain control over acceptance, changes and continued inclusion.
