Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner failed to demonstrate that the beneficiary met the required number of evidentiary criteria. Specifically for the 'published materials' criterion, the petitioner did not establish that the websites featuring the beneficiary were considered major media by providing circulation or readership data. Furthermore, the submitted articles were English translations that lacked the required certifications from the translator.
