Oops! Forgot to add the important thing.

There'll be a separate namespace called References: and for each page [[Foo]],
we'd have a link to [[ References:Foo | Cite sources ]] next to the link to [[
Talk:Foo | Discuss this page ]]. Of course, there may be articles for which the
references page doesn't exist (just like the talk page need not always exist).

Probably we don't need "<Project> References:", "Template References:", and
other such namespaces.

The problem would be that sometimes the References: page is "tied to" the
article, just like the talk page is. e.g. while moving a page, the references
page should also be moved if possible, just like talk pages are.

Is this still an active idea? If not, recommend closing out as WONTFIX.
