- If you are expecting to read the essay on evaluating notability, it has been moved to Misplaced Pages:Notability/Arguments.
Based on several sections in the policy on What Misplaced Pages is not, it is generally agreed that topics in most areas must exceed a certain threshhold of notability in order to have an article in Misplaced Pages.
Several guidelines (see table on the right) have been created, or are under discussion, to define more precisely what these thresholds should be.
Articles on non-notable subjects are frequently nominated for Proposed Deletion and Articles for Deletion, and are frequently deleted via those processes, as can be seen through precedents.

This page documents the status quo. There are (and have been) several proposals to modify the status quo, such as:
- Misplaced Pages:Notability proposal, a failed proposal.
- Misplaced Pages:Non-notability, an active proposal that directly contradicts this one.
