Likely? I'm not sure. They could probably track down a copy with a bit
of effort. But yeah, I suppose it is "verifiable", with full citation
details.
And quotes! Don't forgot about quoting the bits that back up what you
are claiming. While this is nice for web pages, it's particularly
important for less accessible sources; it lets the job of verification
be divided between subject experts - who can judge if the provided
quotes back up what they claim to back up, and wiki gnomes who can
verify that the provided quotes do actually exist in the cited sources
and are not mistyped or fake. Quotes are your friends! ;-)
