===Summary===<br />
<ul><br />
<li> Information in articles needs to have references that show where that information came from.<br />
<ul><br />
<li> '''Verifiable''' - other users must be able to check the information<br />
<li> '''Reliable sources''' - with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy<br />
</ul><br />
<li> Clicking the {{menu icon|[[File:VisualEditor - Toolbar - citoid citepong.png|55px]]|non}} button opens a dialog box that allows you to:<br />
<ul><br />
<li> Cite a new reference<br />
<li> Edit an existing reference<br />
<li> Reuse the same reference in several places<br />
</ul><br />

There are currently over {{PAGESINCATEGORY:All articles with unsourced statements}} articles that have statements that need citations. The {{plainlink|https://citationhunt.toolforge.org/en Citation Hunt}} tool makes referencing those statements easier by suggesting random articles which you can work on. Practice your new skills by helping us solve a "Citation needed" issue: <br />
