Dead tree references will be oh so totally allowed :)
About archiving the digital ones: let's see. The Wikipedias in general do not solve this problem either, so it seems reasonable to assume that this is not a high requirement. Or, put other way: reliable sources seem to have rather stable URIs.
Archiving might still be interesting, but you mentioned a bunch of problems with this already.

Wikidata?
Thanks, I wasn't sure of the policy for wikipedia. I hope this continues on into wikidata.
I mean archiving all the digital references.
Jeblad's suggestion to store (and potentially republish) the important fragment sounds reasonable (IANAL though). I wonder if the folks at archive.org might have some suggestions since they seem to have blazed a trail in this space.
