[edit] Unreferenced Article

While I do not have the factual information to dispute any information in this article, I have no factual information to support it either. That's the problem with unreferenced articles. I will point out that in my experience an article written without the benefit of any reference sources is one of three things:

1. It is original research, which is against Wikipedia policy.

2. It is plagiarized, in which case the writer is trying to hide the source from which it is plagiarized.

3. It is fabricated, which is also against Wikipedia policy.

All I ask is that the author of this article cite his or her source of information. It's what allows other interested persons to conduct follow up research and learn more information. However, if the author is unable to cite a website, book, or article (newspaper or magazine) dealing with this topic, then it falls into one of the above three categories.

I added two links for the author of this article. Now it is referenced and no longer needs the "unsourced" tag. Cheers! StudierMalMarburg 18:36, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
