[WikiEN-l] The new verifiability policy

[Jon]

This is succinct, to the point, and absolutely correct. It doesn't need development (keep things simple!).
   
  All you need now is to get rid of the nonsense in the first half of the policy page referring to what the policy isn't, and stick to saying clearly what the policy is. At present the first third of the page just tells you WP's not looking for truth!!?!?!?!?!!!

    I think, as a guideline (rather than Official Policy), we should
indicate what recommended options are for editors:

1. When making contributions, provide a reference.
2. If you see information that you believe needs a reference, your
options include:
a) Finding one (best)
b) Failing that, either:
1) Tagging with {{citation needed}}
2) Moving unreferenced material to talk page with note asking for reference
3) Asking editor who contributed material to provide a reference
4) Removing the information

Depending on the circumstances, any of the options of b) may be best.
