As a guideline page in Wikipedia space, sourcing is not required. We can do things nobody else does if we feel it works.
I don't think you can edit guidelines for 'if we feel it works'; it pushes too strongly towards edit wars. It's something you do only if everything else fails, or if the 'we' is a real authority, Arbcom or Wales or something.
"We" in this context is the community - a higher authority that either Jimbo or Arbcom.
