Gerard,
No one is saying that only experts should contribute. We are saying that the quality of our contributions should be excellent. They should be unchallengable. They should be of the highest possible quality. They should be better than other encyclopedias. After all, Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a bulletin board or dumping ground. As a collaborative effort, we can achieve that. X can add a fact, Y can provide a source, If there are a lot of sources, we can even create separate source pages, and even have articles about those sources, as has been suggested. The sky is the limit. But under no circumstances should we compromise on our quality.
