A reliable source supports a claim with authority appropriate to the subject. Peer-reviewed literature, primary historical documents and recognised reference works carry the most weight. Seed vendor product pages, forum posts and undated self-published material carry the least, and should be replaced wherever a stronger source exists.
The [better source needed] tag marks a claim whose current citation is too weak to carry it. The source may support the claim; what it lacks is sufficient authority. Where the question is instead whether the source supports the claim at all, use Landrace.Wiki:Verify source.
Resolving a tagged claim
- Replace the citation with a more reliable published source that supports the same claim, and remove the tag.
- If no stronger source exists, attribute the claim in the text to the source making it so the reader can weigh it, then remove the tag.
- If no acceptable source supports the claim, remove the claim.
Removing the tag without addressing the source does not count as resolution.
