Sure, anyone can reference existing work. On another forum there's a guy who references real physics papers all the time, his theory is that the universe is 6000 years old and it looks older because the atmosphere bends all the light coming into earth to make it all look old.
Just because a paper is referenced doesn't mean it's referenced
properly, or that it actually supports the conclusions being drawn.
Creating a document with no peer review does little, creating another journal paper that references previous papers means more.

Directed at people who would not be able to tell if the information is actually right, if the articles are meaningful, if it's representative or if its cherry picked, etc etc... Conclusions made without sufficient information, without sufficient knowledge and training, without sufficient consideration of all the factors, are worse than no conclusions at all.
