Realistically, when is this a problem, Charles? I confess to being bewildered when people complain about the need to find sources. If their edit is correct, why can't they source it?
To me, that's like complaining that the dinner I served you didn't come with wine. If I went to all the effort of cooking the meal, would a little wine be so tricky to come up with?
No, it wouldn't. But you didn't pay for the meal either, so you can't be too picky. To continue the analogy, I would appreciate a firmer statement of the policy: all meals must be accompanied by wine (in which case, I probably won't be inviting you around so often), or just BYO.
(that all came out a lot more harshly and crabblier than intended. all I mean is: yes, sources (and sauces) are nice, but helpful additions are rare enough already without imposing further constraints)
