Indeed this is a GA, and the article is both well-written and interesting. Copyvio is also absent. I can't speak for the offline sources, but I note that, for one, WikiHow is used as a source in this article. (See footnote 82). Is WikiHow reliable? I don't think so, from the "Wiki" looks of it. Cheers, ☯

It is difficult to find a reliable source for the usage of salt in the
Wicca religion. The reliable sources criteria relate to
what fact is being referenced and the context. I'm not sure what relevance your question has to this DYK nomination?

How can we allow an article set to appear on the Main Page to be unreliably sourced? Context matters, sure, but even so WikiHow is not an exception here. I can change the content if I wanted. So could you. It's hard to find a reliable source for this, but not impossible. Shouldn't take months. ☯

OK. I couldn't find anything useful with Google, but Google Scholar brought up a really scholarly book!
