Reliability of interviews for establishing notability edit

While interview content isn't necessarily fact-checked, shouldn't the fact that reputable media outlets choose to interview a person (in depth, about themselves, as opposed to on a topic they are an expert in) be evidence of their notability? If not, that should be explicitly stated as a sentence, with some justification of the thinking behind it, in the page. GenomeFan92 (talk) 17:20, 6 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
