"a huge hassle"

Step 1. Remove the unfounded claim

Step 2. Go to the talk page explaining why you removed it

Step 3. If someone puts it back, edit war them, tag needs citation, call them out in the talk page, get the article locked by an admin, etc etc etc. These things happen all the time, and 95% of the time it gets corrected as long as someone gives a damn
