They must not have expected it to stick as they didn't even attempt sourcing. Wikipeans just can't understand sourcing and would probably link the cartoon as a source. Reading a cartoon and then citing that cartoon is not a "source." It is original research. They need to cite WR.

I think a similar question came up elsewhere in article-space, leading certain individuals to suggest that original research (or at least the appearance thereof) is okay if the alternative is linking to a BADSITE. Maybe things have changed at least slightly since then.
