Notability tag[edit]

I have tagged the article for lack of notability for failing to meet any of the criteria listed at WP:NACADEMICS. Further, she fails the general notability guidelines because of the lack of coverage of her in independent reliable sources. All of the sources cited are pages either under her control, are pages under the control of organizations she's affiliated with, or are lists of her works.

To pass general notability, there would need to be newspaper or magazine articles written about her, or some other work by a journalist or other secondary source that is unrelated to and unaffiliated with Koenig. Further, the articles would need to have substantial coverage of Koenig, not just mention her in passing. —C.Fred (talk) 14:40, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, I understood the problem. Thank you for your reply. Speech 33 (talk) 18:28, 10 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Please, note that sourcing and notability issues are similar to articles for other scientists at Haskins Laboratories, for example, David Ostry and Elliot Saltzman.Speech 33 (talk) 13:57, 11 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
