Wikipedia:Notability (biology)

Notability on Wikipedia is an inclusion criterion based on the encyclopedic suitability of an article topic. In additional to case-by-case notability for each member of a kind, it may be possible to establish notability for all members of a kind (de facto notability) within certain parameters. This most often comes up when bulk-creating a large set of articles for a kind (e.g. species, human genes, protein superfamilies).
