There are people for whom there's what Fred called "spot coverage," because they did something interesting, but they're not overall notable.
This is some fallacious concept being cooked up. Either you're notable or not.
Nonsense. Notability ain't pregnancy.
And herein lies the problem. If we can't agree on what is notable, a suggestion like the one we're discussing will never work. I agree with the ÿou're notable or you're not." statement, but different people call different things notable. That's the whole basis of our inclusionist/deletionist divide. That teacher John Smith could be notable, but it would depend entirely on the content of the article.
