           Summary: Create Quality Bias Alert for Cited Information
                    Sources
           Product: MediaWiki
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org
        ReportedBy: kael.ship...@gmail.com


Sources of information on wikipedia are a major potential point of failure for
the quality of information on the site. Very few of the sources cited in the
articles are primary or even secondary sources. There should be a way (perhaps
a color code for source reference numbers) of alerting users to the proximity
of the source to the ideal, that being primary. Also, and explanation of why
this is information is important to them as readers should be accessible in the
key for what the code colors mean.
