Additional citations

[edit]

The number of citations, if 1 or 1,000,000, is not the problem. The lead of the article, which includes the definition of the term, has no source. This is not cited later in the article. There are several statements in the page that are uncited, While there are lists of citations at the end of paragraphs of text, these paragraphs all contain numerous claims that, and it is unclear which source goes towards which claim. The best citation looks to be "Estimating Safely Managed Sanitation in Urban Areas; Lessons Learned From a Global Implementation of Excreta-Flow Diagrams," which could probably address most of the uncited claims.

Most of the citations are to websites. Not to just template and leave the work to others, here are some citations I recommend including to beef up the article.

By adding a variety of peer-reviewed sources, especially ones using the phrase "shit flow diagram," you can better establish that this term is notable and widely used in the literature. GeogSage (⚔Chat?⚔) 03:47, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've duplicated a ref for the lead, and removed the other citation needed template as the citations at the end of the paragraph cover the entire paragraph. An inline citation for every sentence is not necessary. I've also removed the tag again as everything in the article is verified by the sources. Lastly, sources do not need to be in an article to establish notability, they must merely exist. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:35, 19 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Bill Gates blockquote seems out of place

[edit]

Feels a bit odd just sitting there at the end of the article. I get that it's purpose is to prove that "shit flow diagram" is the real name being used, but it would feel a lot more natual to have it referenced in a paragraph in context rather than a blockquote BugGhost🎤 11:31, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
