I would agree with Carcharoth's below statement. Every editor should edit from reliable sources. Every editor, expert or not, must understand that they themselves are not a source which can be cited. If a statement is tagged as needing a source, and no source is provided, in an reasonable time, that statement can be removed by any editor.

Ideally, you would tell both lots to edit based on reliable sources, not from their own authority.
