  "abstract": "We demonstrate that many Naturalness tests of particle theories discussed in the literature can be reformulated as straightforward algorithmic finetuning assessments in the matching of Wilsonian effective theories above and below particle mass thresholds. Implications of this EFT formulation of Wilsonian Naturalness are discussed for several theories, including the Standard Model, heavy singlet scalar theory, supersymmetry, Grand Unified Theories, twin Higgs theories, and theories of extra dimensions. We argue that the Wilsonian Naturalness algorithm presented here constitutes an unambiguous, a priori, and meaningful test that the Standard Model passes and which \"the next good theory\" of particle physics is very likely to pass.",
