Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to satisfy the initial evidentiary requirements for the classification. The AAO found the evidence for membership in associations did not show they required outstanding achievements, and published articles were either not about the petitioner, lacked proper translation, or were not from sources established as major media. The petitioner also failed to provide sufficient evidence of original contributions of major significance to the field.
