I am trying to help in ending the backlog at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Articles_lacking_sources_from_October_2006. This article has been tagged as Unreferenced for four years. It is time to challenge and remove the contents, which may or may not be spurious, inasmuch as there is no Source to be checked out. The article was previously saved on the supposition that somebody would step forward and supply the References. That has not happened. Here is the link: 1906 Auburn Tigers football team. Sincerely, and with best wishes to all, GeorgeLouis (talk) 17:15, 2 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Comment-Perhaps we could get someone from WikiProject Alabama or WikiProject College Football to try and do some research on this team. I think that it meets notability standards, but the referencing, like you said, is obviously the problem. Just a thought. I however really cant say keep or delete just yet, there is still hope.

*Delete If it has sat dormant without refs for that long, then get rid of it and every other article that exists without refs for more than a year. Keep now that a Ref has been added. I applaud the nominator in being bold with this nomination, resulting in an improvement to the 'pedia without losing an article. The Eskimo (talk) 21:30, 2 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. The Auburn Media Guide is right here; p.184 has the scores. --Arxiloxos (talk) 04:46, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep. The more easily viewable 2008 media guide confirms the schedule and scores. Clarityfiend (talk) 05:04, 3 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Speedy keep. Some nice editor has furnished the reference. Funny what a threatened Delete will do. And now I will move on to another article. Just a few thousand more to go from October 2006. Anybody care to help? Sincerely, GeorgeLouis (talk) 06:04, 3 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Easy keep Article is properly sourced and clearly notable. No question to keep. HeartSWild (talk) 13:35, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment: I have left a note on the talk page of the one delete !voter asking him/her to reconsider. If the !vote is withdrawn and no further delete !votes come along, I will NAC this as withdrawn. &mdash; KuyaBriBri Talk 14:31, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
