This Wikia has been running since about 2005, before reference tags were a common thing, or were heavily enforced in the Wikia community. A lot of the unreferenced information on this site is likely from those early days. The other problem out there is that people only seem to care to update what is new and current. You'll notice that a lot of pages are what I call "bottom heavy" in that not many people have a drive to contribute anything but what is new and current.

As for removing stuff that is unreferenced. Well that depends on the circumstances. If it's blatantly plagiarized from somewhere we'll remove it as we become aware of it. Otherwise we are leaving it there for the time being because if we removed all the old unreferenced material from the older days of this site a lot of articles would be majorly gutted. the hope is that someone will eventually go in and re-write all these things.
