confusion with the template?[edit]

The problem of "Non-independent sources used inappropriately" is a very different issue than the problem of "Unreliable fringe sources".
Quack... you keep creating templates with problematic titles or text... so let me try to help. Let's talk about what you are trying to achieve. What specific problem are you trying to fix with the templates you are creating. Blueboar (talk) 20:48, 18 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

"...written by the trade..."[edit]

@QuackGuru: Can we remove "...written by the trade..." from the template description? Not all fringe sources refer to occupational trades. - Location (talk) 04:46, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I rewrote it. User:Location, if you don't like the part "or non-independent unreliable source" you can delete it or rewrite it. QuackGuru (talk) 17:41, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks! I wasn't sure if there was something I was missing. - Location (talk) 21:14, 29 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The word "unreliable" should be lowercase like all the other similar templates such as {{unreliable medical source}} and {{citation needed}}. 89.153.64.16 (talk) 20:50, 14 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
