published material about the alien in professional or major trade publications or other major media
AAO 为什么未被说服

The YouTube video lacked a transcription and the channel was not shown to be a major medium.

final merits determination – sustained national or international acclaim
AAO 为什么未被说服
AAO noted it need not conduct a formal final merits determination given the Petitioner's failure to meet the initial evidence threshold, but reviewed the record in aggregate and found it insufficient to establish sustained national or international acclaim or top-of-field status.

display of the alien's work at artistic exhibitions or showcases
AAO 为什么未被说服
The Petitioner did not show that publishing articles online or reporting at an event constitutes displaying work at artistic venues. The comparable evidence argument also failed because the Petitioner did not demonstrate why the standard criteria could not apply to his occupation, particularly since he claimed to meet seven other criteria.

The Petitioner did not demonstrate authorship of scholarly articles—one book merely quoted him, another was written by others and included only his advice, and for the third he did not show what he contributed.
