Utterly non-notable journalist / WP:COATRACK article, overloaded with undue weight on one or two controversies. One single line of text that's not controversy :/ Alison ^❤ 23:28, 4 June 2015 (UTC)

• Delete - Basically, although the article is neat and sourced with the two controversies, there's nothing aside from with the following searches providing nothing significant and notable [https://www.google.com/search?hl=en&gl=us&tbm=nws&authuser=0&q=Caleb+Hannan+journalist&gws_rd=ssl#q=Caleb+Hannan+journalist&hl=en&gl=us&authuser=0&tbm=nws&start=0 here], [https://www.google.com/search?q=Caleb+Hannan+journalist&btnG=Search+Books&tbm=bks&tbo=1 here] (two passing mentions) and [http://www.highbeam.com/Search?searchTerm=Caleb+Hannan+journalist here] (Highbeam and nothing at thefreelibrary).

• Rename per JPL —Мандичка^YO 😜 01:33, 6 June 2015 (UTC)
• keep He has received enough attention to justify an article, which is now far better sourced and expanded thanks to User:AuthorAuthor.E.M.Gregory (talk) 12:30, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
• Note it would also be possible to redirect this to the NPOV summary of the incident that already exists at Grantland.E.M.Gregory (talk) 16:03, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
• Keep The subject has received significant coverage in reliable secondary sources as well as a national and regional award and therefore passes Wikipedia:Notability (people). WP:COATRACK does not even remotely apply here. -AuthorAuthor (talk) 10:02, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
• But the subject has not received significant coverage; two events he was associated with have. This article is a single line of biography, plus two controversial incidents in extreme detail, plus one negative 'award' plus one minor one. It reads as a hatchet job and a classic WP:BLP1E, not a biography. This subject is not notable in his own right. At best, redirect it to Grantland, as {{ping| E.M.Gregory}} suggests - Alison ^❤ 19:35, 9 June 2015 (UTC)
• Comment - Journalist bios are notably hard to source out to meet GNG and I generally favor cutting them some slack. On the other hand, this seems like a real coatrack, edging towards an abusive BLP. It needs to be fixed, if kept. Carrite (talk) 14:47, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
• Delete it's a WP:COATRACK and borderline WP:ATTACK piece, the subject is just another run-of-the-mill newspaper writer who got into one or the other controversy. His envolvement in these controversies may be stated at the articles which talk about them, i.e. Grantland (where he is already mentioned) and Ann Rule (where he is not mentioned because he was not directly involved).
