Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to meet the minimum of three evidentiary criteria. While the Director credited the petitioner for meeting the awards and judging criteria, the AAO determined he did not meet the criterion for published material. The submitted articles were either not primarily about the petitioner or were from websites that were not established as major media or professional publications.
