Has there ever been another encyclopedia that included references for all it's facts?
A general list of references at the end of an article is the norm in most other encyclopedias that I've read. Articles in the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (http://plato.stanford.edu/) cite the literature extensively and, based on those I've read, maintain a high level of accuracy. The answer to the above question is therefore no, but some encyclopedias approximate the desired degree of rigor much better than do others.
