[edit] Ralph Yarborough

Article is no longer a featured article

No record exists for the promotion of this article. Rather than sticking an embarassing {{no references}} tag on it - this article has no refs, and has never had any, despite the raising of this problem on the talk page. I doubt the comprehensiveness of the article: it is a very brief chronological biograhpy, and having read it I still know nothing about this poilitican's platform.--nixie 14:59, 3 January 2006 (UTC)

• Remove. To satisfy 2a, almost every sentence would require word therapy. 2b is in doubt: the section on legacy is particularly thin. Although 2e refers to significant change 'from day to day', which is not the case here, the article has changed substantially since it was 'promoted'. Tony 06:47, 4 January 2006 (UTC)

• Remove as per nixie & Tony above. How did this article ever become featured in the 1st place? Mikkerpikker 02:04, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

  The article's talk page history seems to indicate that this article got put on to the list during the switch from Brilliant Prose to Featured Articles. Probably just got lost in the confusion. --Allen3 ^talk 14:03, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

• Remove due to lack of references. --Allen3 ^talk 14:03, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
