[edit] Krystie McCauley
no assertion of notability per WP:N. Mh29255 (talk) 08:34, 27 December 2007 (UTC)
- Weak keep. The notability assertion was hidden deep at the bottom of the article. I fixed it and wrote an adequate lead section. --Blanchardb-Me•MyEars•MyMouth-timed 13:35, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

- Comment - The AfD question is whether she is notable, not whether the article asserts that she is. It's often hard with reporters, writers, academics, etc., because they are notable for what they say, not who they are. However, I could not dig up anything on this person after a whole bunch of google searches. It doesn't help that the article title and the article itself spell her name differently. Offline sources are just fine, but without looking at them I have no way to know if they support notability. Quite possibly she is simply not notable even if the magazine perhaps is. Probably should be deleted unless we can get a clear source. 02:29, 28 December 2007 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikidemo (talk • contribs)

- Delete. I've looked at (and reformatted) the refs provided in the article. As a result I have removed one dead link, and one that simply lists "every former LI News Tonight intern, student aid and teaching assistant…" which was being used to assert that she was a news reporter. Also split the last sentence as the refs don't mention McCauley at all. I haven't done any further searches - I trust Wikidemo. —SMALLJIM 22:55, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
- Delete A single reference does not a notable subject make. There's basically confirmation that she's a reporter in the references, and that's it for notability. Master of Puppets Call me MoP! 23:49, 2 January 2008 (UTC)
