[edit] Comments
- Very interesting and I generally concur. However, I would suggest this should be tagged {{essay}}. Addhoc 15:54, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

- Could you elaborate on why you think that. Essays are to share your views on Wikipedia, while this is a proposal that is trying change a process without altering policy. This change will only occur with large community input because I can't do it all myself. I have a lack of technical bot knowledge to start with. Mgm|(talk) 16:50, 1 April 2007 (UTC)
- Ok, firstly, let me clarify that I'm only suggesting changing the tag. Basically you are saying "we should increase the efforts to provide references for all the material in Wikipedia and use technical tools to our advantage to reach this goal" and I'm not certain that constitutes a proposal for a guideline. Possibly a new wikiproject? Addhoc 17:16, 1 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A very similar focus
I started up a discussion about verifying sources here and did not end with a "thumbs-up" to continue my goal of a sub-project on verifying and attributing articles. I wonder how the opinions in this discussion will affect this proposed WIkiProject. Sr13 (T|C) 02:19, 2 April 2007 (UTC)
