Failed "good article" nomination
This article has failed its Good article nomination. This is how the article, as of June 12, 2015, compares against the six good article criteria:


 * 1. Well written?: Symbol neutral vote.svg Not checked
 * 2. Verifiable?: Symbol oppose vote.svg As noted in more detail at Talk:2015 Folds of Honor QuikTrip 500/GA1, this article is one of a number nominated by this user that are poorly referenced. The majority of the information presented body of the article is completely lacking inline citations, which are a key part of Wikipedia's verifiability criteria. Without those it is impossible to tell which parts of the article are backed up by which sources, and as such, impossible to tell whether there is any original research. I would note that the referencing in this article is probably the best of the nominated articles, but given the user's lack of action and apparent lack of understanding of the problem, I don't feel that putting the article on hold would be effective in this instance.
 * 3. Broad in coverage?: Symbol neutral vote.svg Not checked
 * 4. Neutral point of view?: Symbol neutral vote.svg Not checked
 * 5. Stable?: Symbol support vote.svg Pass
 * 6. Images?: Symbol neutral vote.svg Not checked

Unfortunately, although it feels a bit heavy handed, I think the best action for the moment is to quick-fail all of the open nominations, as they fall so far short of our referencing requirements.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be renominated. If you feel that this review is in error, feel free to have it reassessed. Thank you for your work so far.— Harrias talk 09:21, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
