One thing we should probably introduce in this
area though is that
articles which do not provide any references should be speedy
deletions. Now there are probably a whole lot of good articles out
there right now which would fit that, so for now let's make the CSD
criterion only for articles caught in the first 48 hours.
Now this, while a rather draconian policy, is at least not inimical to
the nature of Wikipedia, as AfD is. Of course, I'd rather that people
be expected to make a good-faith effort to find a reference before
deleting.
I think this is something that we need collaboration for. A page upon
which articles that don't contain any references at all can be placed.
If references are added they can be removed from the page. If they
stay there for a month or so, they may be deleted. No limits on
article age would be needed.
