Had to put my 2 cents here ...

Leonard, very good point but might it be better to use Evidence Basis
(ala' Evidence Based Medicine, Evidence Based Health Care, Evidence
Based Librarianship, etc.) as a Property of the resource no matter what
form or source the resource takes ?
...

Well, it actually boils down to a peer-reviewed article. If it was peer-reviewed, it is likely to be evidence based. If not, most likely it isn't solid evidence.

A meta-analysis (of properly conducted studies) is the highest level of evidence. Then follows a properly conducted randomized trial and so on (see the Cohrane database). I have posted such a category tree on the OOo site some time ago, see http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Bib-Keywords (though I largely abandoned that issue due to limited time.)

Sincerely,

Leonard
