I agree article was in https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nikole_Hannah-Jones&oldid=675898139 bad shape. And I agree a journalist should not being notable if they only have bylines but the content is not about the subject. However, this is not the case with this Nikole Hannah-Jones. First, her reporting on resegregation ''is'' becoming the story: her reports have been widely hailed http://www.slate.com/blogs/schooled/2015/08/04/normandy_school_district_segregation_why_it_s_the_other_racist_tragedy_in.html here and http://www.vox.com/2015/8/3/9092299/this-american-life-explains-why-school-segregation-still-exists-and here and have inspired new thinking about worsening segregation in schools; her work exposing the "deep correlations between housing and poverty" was http://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2015/06/25/417433460/in-fair-housing-act-case-supreme-court-backs-disparate-impact-claims cited here. Second, she won numerous awards (my count => 8; see https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Nikole_Hannah-Jones&oldid=676251875 article). Third, writing for NY Times magazine and Atlantic etc is pretty much the top of the US journalistic pyramid. Fourth, she is seen by the journalistic community as the go-to person on civil rights. Fifth, she has been a panelist on national radio broadcasts such as PBS and NPR. Sixth, she gave a http://www.kansascity.com/news/business/article23046579.html TED talk. Article improved as per . There are in-depth articles about her http://www.propublica.org/site/author/nikole_hannah-jones here and http://blogs.edweek.org/edweek/education_and_the_media/2015/04/propublica_report_on_resegregation_takes_top_education_writers_award.html here and http://www.cision.com/us/2015/04/new-york-times-magazine-adds-nikole-hannah-jones/ here and http://uanews.ua.edu/2015/01/ua-unlocked-offers-forum-on-race-in-public-schools-with-noted-journalist/ here.
