− | :This wiki does indeed have a policy on {{template|Citation needed}}s, in that this is a local template specifically to tie in with our idea of the general joke of a [[285: Wikipedian Protester|particular comic]] (follow its link, and see, or just hover and see where your browser hints at the desfination).
| |
− | :What is a 'normal' "Citation needed", in general wikidom, is fulfilled by {{template|Actual citation needed}}, which should probably be addressed (or dismissed) and the markup removed as necessary. But the first one is generally "stating some inarguable fact,{{Citation needed}} that absolutely does ''not'' require a Citation".
| |
− | :In fact, if it needs a Citation then it should be made 'Actual ...', and if it has one then it's no longer serving a jokey purpose (IMO). I'm also not partial to multiple CNs in the same article (unless ''very'' long, to give plenty of elbow room), though this article has two in close proximity. To that extent, I might look at the two here and cull the less comedic one.
| |
− | :In fact, shoehorning even just one into ''every'' Explanation also kills the joke, for me. Its value is greater for rarity. Find the one really humorous point within a (decent) fraction of the pages. If I were to find that both [[728]] and [[730]] had example(s), I might prune one or more out, beyond the above stipulation.
| |
− | :But that's not this wiki's policy, it's my opinion. Wiki policy (or official community consensus, really) does not require removal like a 'real' version of it as found elsewhere. Because it's not the same at all.
