Excellent solution, may I borrow your prod
content for my own use?
Yes, but the case I'm worried about is one where the targeted
article is
not libelous or about living people, still would have content if the
questionable material is removed, and actually does have sources,
but which
are not referenced in the recommended one-footnote-per-sentence
way. The
policy is letting people use the rules to disrupt by picking any of
that
80% of articles and saying "you'd better source this, now, or I put
your
article up for deletion."
Nothing about the verifiability policy requires _inline_ sources.
And please stop asserting 80% of our articles are unsourced, when my
informal check suggests that the number is more like 20%.
