This is apparently the only John Callan on Wikipedia. Is there a reason the article isn't at John Callan, possibly with a disambiguation link to John Callan O'Laughlin? Binabik80 (talk) 01:40, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Fair call. Unless somebody says something to the contrary here in the next day or so, I shall move it. Schwede66 05:07, 5 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There is now an article covering his father, who had an identical name. I have added a hatnote; as long as there isn't a third John Callan, a disambiguation page is not needed. Schwede66 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
