I am seeing lots of boards and organizational memberships in this bio, but none that meet WP:NPOL or the WP:GNG more generally. BD2412 T 21:34, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

- Delete Two listings from AL.com mentioning him in a Hall of Fame, but I can't see anything we can use for GNG. Appears to have been promotional until he passed away, reads like a beefed up linkedin article. Oaktree b (talk) 22:00, 18 December 2022 (UTC)

- Comment: I feel like an idiot, as I've spent the past 30 minutes clipping newspaper.com clips for the wrong person. Apparently there is another John A. Caddell who also operated in Alabama at about the same time. This John A. Caddell appears to still be alive as recent as 2017, and I would say he seems to be a notable construction magnate [1][2]. I found some clippings of the relevant John ([3][4]), but nothing too great in the realm of WP:SIGCOV,, so I would also argue delete, with a possible re-create for the other John A. Caddell.
