Hoi,

I have been thinking about requirements like any assertion must be sourced. I think they will kill much of the embryonic community Wikidata has.

When people of any Wikipedia want to make sure that the data of Wikidata contains sources to assertions, they are welcome to add them. Requiring them is something they may do to the extend of their use on their project.

Thanks,

GerardM

Hi!
After almost 2 months of deliberations, we are aiming to close the RfC on References and Sources on June 15. The result of the discussions has been condensed into the proposed Guidelines for sourcing staments.

And also these proposed enhancements will help users to enter and to display sources more easily:
