I propose the idea to add into policy that, when a speculation or note section states that the article in question is a reference to something, it should be accompanied with a link to [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page Wikipedia] whenever possible to sate the curiosity of the reader.

You'd like to create a policy based on a personal preference. What would this accomplish? It's not like banning non-complying contributors is an option here. I doubt anyone would revert edits adding such links, so it does not seem like a policy change would do much.
