Hoi, That is another issue.. I do not think so. For us being able to link a statement in a text or in Wikidata is what we define as a source.
For me the central question is: Are Wikipedians willing to consider quality in their own project and appreciate that as a fringe benefit for them the quality of sources will improve in Wikidata and in their project. So far arguments why and how it will improve things have been made and so far the silence is deafening. Thanks, GerardM

There is only one question left: Are we ready to fix these quality issues?
My observation would be that citations come in many forms, and that a agreed format does not appear to exist. Writing for a academic journal authors have to follow the style of the journal. Should this be true in Wikipedia and other projects?
