So after much mucking about...
Is there any agreement for there being a manner in which to demonstrate to
the community's consensus satisfaction that a claimed source has been added
fraudulently and either does not really exist or does not really say what
the citation claims it does?
What I seem to have been seeing here is that there's an unreasonable
tendency to assume that a citation is legitimate. I would prefer if there
were a healthy degree of skepticism associated with citations - any citation
that does not contain enough information for a reasonable researcher to
locate the original source, or at least verify the existence of the original
source, should be challengable in a reasonable manner.
