It's simply crazy.
I know that the article [[:de:Wikimedia CH]] has been cancelled in the past because we are working to have this chapter and it is not established.
Now Wikimedia CH is alive, it's working, we have a lot of references, documentation but... the article in german Wikipedia? It's lost.
I repeat... crazy, absolutely crazy.

But how do you define 'can be sourced'? The only way that you can

accept
without source and what not?
There is currently a poll on the German Wikipedia whether new articles that cite no sources should be deleted: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia: Meinungsbilder/Quellenpflicht_f%C3%BCr_neue_Artikel
The proposal, translated literally: "New articles may only be created if they cite sources.These citations should be listed in the edit summary [*] and/or in the article itself. To cite the main sources for an article, the sections 'Literature' or 'Weblinks' should be used. (...) New articles without sources can be deleted without further discussion through a speedy deletion request."
