I really think all of these are superflous to each other. Shouldn't they be
merged into one policy, called Wikipedia:Verifiability? I mean, look at what
we're saying here:
- Wikipedia:Verifiability
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:V>basically says "content that
isn't blatantly obvious should be sourced".
- Wikipedia:Reliable sources
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:RS>says "content should be
sourced".
- Wikipedia:Notability <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:N> says
"if articles can't be sourced they will be deleted".
- Wikipedia:No original
research<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:No_original_research>says
"we don't allow articles on things that can't be sourced".
What do you guys think?
