Verifiability and no original research are two of IntactiWiki's core content policies.
The threshold for inclusion is verifiability. That is, readers must be able to check that the material is from a reliable source.
No original research, please. All material must be attributable to a reliable source. This policy requires that all statements, quotations and any material challenged (or likely to be challenged) be attributed to a reliable source, in the form of an in-line citation, and that the source directly support the material in question.
This policy is strictly applied to all material in the mainspace—articles, lists, sections of articles, and captions—without exception. Anything that requires but lacks a source may be removed (or tagged with {{Citation needed}}), and unsourced contentious material should be removed immediately. To learn how to add citations, see Help:Editing/Citations.
