If something being personal opinion is enough to reject a source then
there is a great deal we need to be rejecting that we are not, such as
a rather large chunk of the popular media, many blog citations, and
pretty much everything else that no body has ever bothered to create a
formal review process for...  I'd support it, but I thought
Wikipedia's standard was verifiability not truth.
