From reading this discussion and the article, I do not exactly understand why this scientist is considered notable. As per the article's lead section, the main reason is that she was on a team that provided a target for the discovery of element 117. To make that entirely clear: she did not discover a chemical element and she wasn't a part of the team that made the discovery. The discoverers were those who conducted the experiment in Russia in 2009--2010 and those who later analyzed the data obtained in that experiment. She was a part of the team that provided necessary equipment for that discovery, nothing less but nothing more. While that was indeed of crucial importance for the discovery (though not a part of it), I don't see how that makes ''everybody'' involved in making the target personally notable. She was not even the leader of that group. If there ever was a person of notability gained from that alone, that would be Joseph Hamilton (I will note that he does not have a Wikipedia article for whatever reason). If that is the reason why she has an article at all (and it appears to me it is), then my judgment is that she does not pass . If there is nothing she has done that passes GNG, then the sum of what she has done does not have her pass it either (though it may be the reason for somebody to give her enough coverage that would help pass it
— NONE, NONE
