Unsourced after fifteen years Orange Mike | Talk 13:43, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Military and Products. ― "Ghost of Dan Gurney" (talk) 16:08, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep For better or worse, citing sources isn't actually a requirement in any policy or guideline. Our rule is that a subject can qualify for a separate article if sources exist in the real world, even if none are cited in the article. In this case, though, multiple editors have identified multiple sources in the Village pump discussion where it was given as an example. @Orangemike, if it bothers you that the sources aren't listed in the article, then feel free to copy them over from that discussion.
- Comment - The article definitely needs urgent attention. Being unsourced for over 15 years is somewhat concerning. Dympies (talk) 06:01, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep: I agree with Whatamidoing — if sources exist, then the topic is notable and the article should remain. WP:NEXIST. Also, I'll go copy the sources. Toughpigs (talk)
- Keep per WhatamIdoing and Toughpigs, with a trout to the nominator for not simply copying the identified sources to the article themselves. Thryduulf (talk) 17:30, 8 June 2024 (UTC)
- Keep The article is now sourced. Dympies (talk) 01:28, 9 June 2024 (UTC)
