Hard to say.  I've been features in the Times Educational Supplement,
interviewed on BBC Radio a couple of times, been invited to contribute
to a Government policy review, had an Early Day Motion placed in
parliament, been seen on TV (once), and had many letters published in
the press (including the British Medical Journal) or read out on the
radio.  And I would say that [[WP:HOLE]] applies in my case.  You need
to be more notable than that :-)
