Personally I prefer referring to the work of a relevant expert to an evolutionary psychology based "just so" explanation, even if that explanation is advanced by Eliezer himself.
When trying to explain to someone the LessWrongian conception of "Politics is the Mind-Killer"?
I agree that in general, references to external experts are desirable. But in the case of the wiki I don't think the point is to create facts, it's to explain concepts from the sequences. And experts in evolutionary psychology are not experts in Less Wrong vocab.
