There is a page ([[Rayo's number|here]]) that contains several statements without a source, I believe the reason is because the supposed proof is found in a dedicated fandom (formerly wikia). Even though it is not a good source, I think it is necessary to add this item as a reference, because as it stands now, it is just a statement without any source, it would not make more sense to add the reference so, in case someone wants to check and point out errors/corrections, than just leaving it there as a statement?

Remove anonymous authority

Used for calculation, it is considered the most important subject.

Remove "Used for calculation, it is considered the most important subject". This sentence is a subtle attempt to inject subjectivity and goes against Wikipedia's policies against anonymous authority or weasel words.

Question about sources for math proofs

There is a page (here) that contains several statements without a source, I believe the reason is because the supposed proof is found in a dedicated fandom (formerly wikia). Even though it is not a good source, I think it is necessary to add this item as a reference, because as it stands now, it is just a statement without any source, it would not make more sense to add the reference so, in case someone wants to check and point out errors/corrections, than just leaving it there as a statement?
