Boston Bolts

Completely unsourced article about a short-lived US soccer team. Guy (Help!) 14:21, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep and I am sure it will be expanded and sourced in due course. Member teams of professional leagues are sufficiently notable, and articles rightfully exist on hundreds of similar teams. Newyorkbrad 16:28, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep I'm inclined to say that any truly professional sports team is notable, and besides this article claims some notable alumni and such. Needs improvement but not a deletion case.  Andrew Lenahan -  St ar bli nd  16:39, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. Notable; in a professional league. Ab e g92 contribs 17:10, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment well, where are the sources, then?  I couldn't find any in the article!  "Will be sourced in due course" -- isn't it actually the other way round, it's up to whoever writes the article to provide the sources? -- Ekjon Lok 18:12, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep: Notable.  Seicer  (talk) (contribs) 19:31, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep Have added an external link, sure more can be found as any professional sports team is usually notable. Davewild 19:38, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

 * Keep. Currently unsourced, but plenty of material for future expansion. -Hit bull, win steak(Moo!) 14:50, 31 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep for reasons given above, perfectly notable. ♦Tangerines BFC ♦ · Talk 17:17, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep. I actually have no interest in the Bolts and wrote the article quickly to get rid of numerous red links in various soccer bios.  Additionally, the American Soccer League had an article for every member team, except the Boston Bolts.  However, I took about ten minutes tonight and added a supporting reference for each year.Mohrflies 02:07, 2 June 2007 (UTC)
