Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to provide sufficient evidence to meet the claimed criteria. Counsel asserted eligibility for awards, memberships, published material, and judging, but submitted no supporting documentation. The AAO found that citations to the petitioner's work did not qualify as published material *about* the petitioner and that unsupported statements by counsel do not constitute evidence.
