[edit] Treadwell gold mine
This article contains no citable source material. All paragraphs in the body of the page are not linked to anything which could verify a source. The links at the bottom of the page lead to "page not found". Editor claims work in progress, but he has had several weeks with which to do so, and yet all that is contained within the page amounts to POV, and therefore cannot be published as per Wikipedia guidlines.

- Keep. AFD is not a place to discuss problems with article content. The article asserts the subject's notability (the largest gold mine of the Alaskan Panhandle). If the article needs cleanup, copyediting, or removal of uncited material, that can be done without deleting the article. --Elkman (Elkspeak) 14:42, 12 May 2007 (UTC)

- You did not answer the reason for the tag, which was the inclusion of an unsourced article. Saying it's the "largest gold mine in Alaska" without citations is personal opinion. However, I noticed new additions and source material just added to the page after I tagged it, which satifies Wikipedia requirements; therefore, I am withdrawing this nomination.
