Simply calling another editor a "liar" (which is a personal attack) or even stating that the editor is incorrect is not a reason to keep or delete any article on Wiki English. If the editor is incorrectly quoting, misapplying information, misinterpreting data, or otherwise simply misinformed, a useful response is to provide a reference to the correct information.
If an editor makes a statement and holds it out as a fact without proper sourcing, it is more than fair to ask for sources. At the same time, it is best to always assume good faith among your fellow editors.
