Known to be false information, yes.  Unverified information is another 
beast---a large proportion of our mathematical articles are currently 
unreferenced, but almost certainly correct (and can be easily verified 
by anyone knowledgeable in the field, or with access to an intro-level 
textbook).

If it's an unverified half-sentence stub, perhaps we don't lose much by 
simply deleting it.  If it's a good article that just needs some 
references added, though, we move backwards by deleting it and forcing 
someone later to start from scratch.
