The {{citation needed}} template aims to promote accountable discourse.

Example: Most people believe in ghosts.[citation needed]

To ensure that all Wikipedia content is verifiable, anyone may question an uncited claim by inserting {{citation needed}} or a similar inline template. Exercise caution when relying upon unsourced claims.

  • If you have reason to think that the claim is inaccurate, you may remove it from the article altogether and discuss it at the article's talk page, Start a new discussion there, paste the text you removed from the article and state your reasoning.
  • If you can locate a reliable source for the claim: Please be bold and substitute <ref>footnote</ref>, replacing footnote with enough information to locate the source. Leave the copyediting to someone else, or learn more at Wikipedia:Citing sources.
  • Controversial, poorly sourced claims in biographies of living persons should be deleted immediately.
