What makes you say that?
(a) people will be happier if there's a human pressing the button (b) in a crappily-formatted article, the source info may be easy for a human to spot but hard for a robot. I just changed [[Riptides]] to take the {{unreferenced}} off it since the ref was given as plain text as the last paragraph. (I put that in a more standard format as well.)
Hmm. How about using a custom template, as Carl essentially suggested, and in addition, make sure that this template explicitly states what has happened and that it will be reviewed in due course. Also append a suitable category so that it's very easy for volunteers to find and review these articles.
Is transparency a good-enough solution?
