Is it just me, or are we missing a rather important warning? Users who repeatedly delete sourced content because they claim it's incorrect. The delete-warnings do not cover it, as these users often add edit summaries (basically claiming they know better than sources). Similarly, even though it is POV-editing, POV does not really cover it either. Given that we have warnings both for adding unsourced material and for using bad sources, wouldn't it make sense to have warnings for deleting good sources based on [[WP:TRUTH]].

Would it be worth to make {{tl|uw-refspam1}} through {{tq|refspam4im}} for editors who are spamming references? The {{tl|uw-spam1}} could be used, but instead of linking to [[WP:EL]] linking to [[WP:RS]] and talking about continued addition of dubious sources being regarded as a form of spam. --[[User:Beetstra|Dirk Beetstra]] <sup>[[User_Talk:Beetstra|<span style="color:#0000FF;">T</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Beetstra|<span style="color:#0000FF;">C</span>]]</sup> 12:38, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
:{{u|Beetstra}}, there's already a {{tl|uw-refspam}}, do you think that changing it to a multi-level template would be a better option? <sup><small>[[User:Creffpublic|creffpublic]]</small></sup> <sub style="margin-left:-8ex"><small>a [[User:Creffett|creffett]] franchise</small></sub> ([[User_talk:Creffett|talk to the boss]]) 13:19, 5 November 2019 (UTC)
::{{u|Creffett}}, I did not know that one .. but that does not really cover my case. There are more and more cases of editors placing (likely their) websites as references. Not necessarily 'a small group of researchers'. Some of these are plain 'spam' websites, not even research. So yes, maybe it is worth considering the multi-level set.
