From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Learning, editing and publishing is a useful pursuit. I hope to add value to Wikipedia. I enjoy shortening wordy sentences and reorganizing articles. I enjoy interactions with pleasant editors. I do not like unkindness; this is not X (formerly known as Twitter).

Topics that I follow:

[edit]

Nonprofit organizations - Finance & accounting - Middle East affairs - Political figures - Religious leaders

Stating the Obvious:

[edit]

Guide to "logical quotation" at MOS:LQ.

Citation Needed In wiki markup, you can question an uncited claim by inserting a simple [citation needed] tag, or a more comprehensive [citation needed]. Alternatively, [citation needed] and [citation needed] will produce the same result. These all display as:

Example: 87% of statistics are made up on the spot.[citation needed]

If a claim in an article is questionable and not supported by a cited reliable source then it may be challenged by anyone. You can put a {{fact}} tag beside it to request a citation. If it is inaccurate information from a dubious source put a {{Verify credibility}} tag on it – or find correct information and reference it from a reliable source. You also may use {{Verify source}} or {{Failed verification}} tags on it, as appropriate. If the tag has remained there for several days, the unsupported claim should be safe to remove.
