This is hardly the only problem with Wikipedia, the assumed infallibility of sources is one I've run into several times before. I've seen some pretty bad faith editors justify their edits by dumping piles of sources that were flat out wrong or using suspect sources to push some sort of political bias. Not to mention editors adding crappy sources in good faith, or the classic xkcd citogenesis phenomenon. https://xkcd.com/978/ https://xkcd.com/978/
