I see no reason why we should be flexible about sources. If it hasn't got sources it can be deleted, regardless whether this is a policy or a guideline. It may be kept if someone bothers to find the sources the author should have included, but that might not happen.
The only way to make people use sources is hammering it in, because no matter how many times it is said, people will ignore it. Perhaps deletion will get some backsides into gear.

That wording seems to change from day to day. I'm not sure where the discussion about its wording is held. For a while it insisted on copyright violations. Sometimes it mentions nonsense, sometimes it does. Sometimes it says "may be deleted", other times it's "will".
It's in [[MediaWiki:Newarticletext]]. There may be some discussion on the talk page there.
