Source tracking for agency referrals who did not confirm their applications

Summary:

For prospects(for referred candidates) who have not manually validated and completed their profiles, if a recruiter proceeds to convert the prospect, the source is recorded as “Manually added by recruiter.” We would like to hold on to their initial source. Is this something that is possible or something that other companies do often ? We would like to understand what are other companies doing for such cases just to see if there are ways in which the process can be improved upon.
