Comixpedia.org collect human knowledge about a particular webcomic topic but not here to create new knowledge. After all, it is an encyclopedia. We don't want the encyclopedia filled with unverfiable information and crackpot theory that may be wrong.

A webcomic without a link to their comic is like a possible hoax. A topic without citation is a topic easily subtley vandalized. New original research turn out to be a hoax or flawed research with crackpot theorys about the medium of webcomic.

For example, an author claim they made a comic in the 1980 in print and published it on the web redrawn in January 2006. However that information only exits on comixpedia.org and nowhere else. This make it particular hard to verfiy. It may be true but we have no way to know if it true. A weblink may not compared much to a book on the subject but it better than nothing.

We should disallowed any original research. We are not a peer review journal with a professor that have a degree strongly related to webcomic. The encyclopedia project is not consisted of experts with a academic degree like doctor degree in literature or art. It consisted of regular people. Again, we should only report on items that are verfiable, not do new research with new data to reveal something.

So we have options. Either we adopt Wikipedia's policy on Verfiability and No Original Research. They done the work of defining the policy and fine tune it. It doesn't make sense to just make our own which might not work. On the other hand, we might have a better policy by making our own that is suited to the webcomic encyclopedia project. The middle ground could be simply adapt Wikipedia policy to our own need.
