The page on maxspeed is this one: http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:maxspeed
The page you gave is a page that explains the possibilities to tag the source of the maxspeed (a sign, or a missing sign). In general, sources are only useful to help other mappers or yourself. So if you have the correct maxspeed tag on the roads, there's not really a need to tag the source.
