>She's an African woman. She's won Yale's big prize.
Which, as I’ve noted, wasn’t even mentioned in the article at the time the tag 
was placed.

>She is  notable except this guy thought she wasn't.
The placing of the tag doesn’t mean (necessarily) that he doubted her 
notability, as Jodi just pointed out. It means that he didn’t see it asserted, 
and was perhaps trying to goad you to add that to the article.


>I see how they expect so much more to justify notability for a >woman of color 
>than a male author of potboilers.

Well, as I did point out a day or so ago, someone tagged an article on one of 
Cussler’s books with the same tag nine months ago. And it’s still there.
