A bot will detect unsourced articles and notify the responsible SWG of the article and the need to source it.
The problem with this is the same as always. While sourcing everything is an ideal, articles generally don't get created fully sourced, let alone with every sentence sourced, and Wikipedia is very much a work in progress and will remain so. Removing all unsourced articles will remove a vast amount of useful information, most of which is accurate, and when it is inaccurate is generally no more so than a typical non-Wikipedia reference anyway.
