Pffffffffft. This is a "component" of basic verifiability policy. Being about a particular warm body does not make an article special in this regard. The same basic deficiency (of sources) is no more grave an editorial error than if the topic were pokemon. In either case, the problem should be corrected, either by finding a source, or by removing the disputed and/or dubious information. Ideally, the only difference for a "BLP" article is that the "grace period", for allowing the author (of the disputed portions) to cite sources, is much closer to zero.
