Since sources may contradict each other, each field of information about an entity show allow:
multiple values
any number of source references per value
The latter is already true in the database but can't be filled in in the admin form (references are only shown for people, letters, and actions).
However, the relationship between Field models and entities needs to be adjusted so we can add multiple values for each property.
Allowing contradictions will allow researchers to fill in data for a source, without conflicting with the work of other researchers (who are logging the same entry from a different source).
