Great idea!
This would swing the balance too far in favor of the deletionists.
The unsourced statement would have to be unreasonable. Obvious
common knowledge statements should not have to be sourced, and
someone edit warring, demanding that every petty statement be sourced
is being unreasonable, and should not be rewarded by being allowed to
impose a burden upon other editors.
Oh, I don't know - we managed to find a source for the statement "the
Earth is round" :)
