The Importance of Sources in Wikipedia Articles

In the context of Wikipedia, "unreferenced" means that there is no source or reference provided to support the information in the article. This means that the information has not been verified or validated by a reliable source, and may be considered speculative or unreliable.

In other words, if an article contains information that is not supported by any sources or references, it is considered unreferenced. This is important because Wikipedia aims to provide accurate and verifiable information, and relies on sources to support the claims made in its articles. Without sources, the accuracy and reliability of the information cannot be verified, and the article may be considered unreliable or in violation of Wikipedia's policies.

In general, it is important to provide references for all information included in an article, especially if it is a controversial or disputed topic. This helps to ensure that the information is accurate and reliable, and can help to prevent misunderstandings or misinformation.
