Fixing the *article* can never change the notability of the *topic*.   A
topic is not notable unless it is described or discussed in multiple
independent reliable sources -- independent not only of each other but of
the inventor(s) and their fans.  The only way to make that happen is to do
things like write an article that gets published in a scholarly journal
(not one that publishes indiscriminately) or arrange for detailed coverage
in a well-known newspaper or magazine or their Web equivalents.  Generally
speaking, blog posts by randoms do not count as such sources.
