Heh. "Do you have a reference for that?" has
always been the warcry of
our more skilled edit warriours.
Although it can be taken to a querulous extent (I remember how User:AI
did this on Scientology-related articles), I can't say they're really
*wrong* to do so and to encourage this. Ideally, a good editor should
not add a new thing to an article without being able to say exactly
where it came from.
