Federal recognition = verifiability (not validity).
Simply not true. Federal recognition may imply verifiability, but it isn't the same thing. We have plenty of articles on unaccredited "universities" (aka Diploma Mills), they are perfectly verifiable even if they aren't formally recognised. You logic would suggest we should get rid of all of them too.

You call them "diploma mills". The proposed policy did not state they could not have article, only that they had to be tagged as not federally recognized.
