Absence of any claim to validity is what is at issue, and the absence of any sources is one of the diagnostic factors. very few sourced articles are flagged for A7.
Oh, some are, you know. I had a worry about this yesterday, writing about a historian who was at the College de France. What if some admin has no idea whether this is an 'assertion of notability' or not? I'm not going to demean myself by adding 'the world-famous and prestigious academic institution in Paris'. But I do wonder whether some people would think I should, in order to be asserting a bit louder.

Hopefully a link to the article on the College de France would be sufficient. But you will note that I didn't say *no* sourced articles are flagged for A7. There are several articles I've written where I'm conscious that they are on the borders of what might be considered notable. Mind you, those are the ones where I tend to make most effort to establish notability, in case some heartless deletionist like me gets wind of them...

There's a nice chap out at the end of the [[Yellow brick road]] who can help with that, but beware the [[Political interpretations of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz]].

I've seen articles which declare their subject to be Emmy winning csd under A7, so I do wonder what constitutes an assertion of notability. It's almost to the point where we need to write our articles with the lead sentence blah is notable because they won an emmy rather than blah, a sfx company which won an emmy...

What, real Emmys or "regional Emmys" (aka best actor in Mudhole Flats, Idaho)?
