This page contains the following:

• Issues with sources: this is for tagging issues with sources; they are either inline tags, or message boxes for sections or entire pages. You could also leave a note on the talk page asking for a source, or move the material to the talk page and ask for a source there. There are also some templates for search links to find sources. Transcluded from Wikipedia:Template messages/Cleanup/Verifiability and sources.
• Including third-party content: these are templates for referencing content for some specific sources: United States government, public domain and wikis.
• Citations of specific sources: inline citation templates for a few specific sources.
• Citations of generic sources: general inline citation templates transcluded from Wikipedia:Citation templates

Issues with sources

Is the article worth it?

Before placing templates on a page it is worthwhile to consider whether it should in fact be included in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not. Some articles can be tagged for speedy deletion or marked as an article for deletion.

Dates

It is useful to add the date of the request (or sometimes, a bot will assist by doing it automatically) by appending |date=month year to the template code, like this: {{Unreferenced|date=January 2026}} to produce this: Template:Unreferenced

United States federal government attribution templates

These templates can be added to articles (close to the end of the article, in the References or External links section, for example). Before adding the template to an article, check the details of the usage—some templates require parameters such as a URL. Most of these templates add the articles to the category Wikipedia articles incorporating text from public domain works of the United States Government.
