Everyone agrees that having no sources is, as a whole, bad. Not everyone agrees that wholesale deletion is the answer, however. It would be awfully nice if, instead of changing the culture to remove large swaths of articles, we worked on changing the culture to actually, you know, collaborate on getting sources.
In most of the cases flagged for speedy deletion, though, that would be a titanic waste of time and effort.
There is no criterion for speedy deletion related to the absence of references. Any article listed for speedy deletion on that basis should simply be delisted.
