Thoughts?
Yes, agree. Well, partly. I believe that if you *start* an article, you ought to have the sourcing in front of you.
Why?
So that we can guard against publishing original research and original thought. This is what I believe all articles require sourcing. Everything should be verifiable, and to that extent, probably ought to be verified.
All articles require sourcing, and should have it.
No, they don't.
You only need to provide a source for (a) direct quotes, and (b) a claim made in the article that is being challenged.
I stand corrected.
