Template:Fact
From RationalWiki
The {{fact}} tag, when inserted in an article, looks like this: [citation needed], except that it links directly here. It means one of two things:
- What was just asserted in the text is being questioned, and needs a legitimate citation, or reference, in order to stand.
- The author at the time was not exactly sure of the fact they were writing, and is begging your help to make sure it is correct.
In either case, your immediately dropping whatever you are doing, researching the matter to the best of your ability, and fixing the article, would be appreciated.
