Comment: Despite the removal of the word "significant", the article still appears somewhat promotional (see for example, the "across the world" statement, backed by a page showing the topic as a speaker, not exactly the kind of coverage we need for that), Stashik being recognized by the IES may be significant if it's written about in WP:RS, but I would consider the IES to be primary in that case and we would need a better source ASUKITE 16:38, 4 September 2024 (UTC)
