Sourced information on this Wiki is referenced, and is referenced to "confirmed" sources i.e. confirmed by Bethesda. What that essentially boils down to is that we reference things in-game, because things in-game are Bethesda-confirmed really (I'm very bad at explaining this, sorry x__x). For example, the Ulfric Stormcloak article; scroll down to the bottom of the page and you'll find the references section. Sections like those generally show where in-game people got information. For example, I added to that article that I read in an in-game book that Hoag Merkiller was the one who created the Argonian Assemblage + opened Windhelm to Dunmer refugees. So I added this to the article, and referenced the article of that in-game book, so anyone can then go and read that same book and see where I got my information. And that information is 'Bethesda-confirmed' because it's actually in the game.

Back onto topic though, I was reading a lot of lore articles last night and actually found there is already speculation scattered among articles anyway. I know I should really link you guys to all of them to back myself up but one such prime example is the Dragonfires article- the whole article doesn't have a single citation or reference. As per the policies, shouldn't this article be reformed or, if it's indeed speculative rather than people too lazy to reference, deleted?? Amulet of Kings article has some speculation in the Trivia section too.
