Please don't tag a section for citations needed and then tag multiple sentences in that section separately[edit]

One or the other, please. The WP:LEAD, what you call the introduction, actually doesn't need citations if the sources are in the body of the article. But that's not the case for the sentences you tagged. However, it probably would have been better to tag them in the body of the article. Even better, don't just tag. Go the the relevant articles, sometimes linked as the main article, and see if there are sources you can copy to the main article. Also, some things are so obviously correct you should either source them yourself if you feel strongly about it or leave them. I'm pleased to see that you have added at least one source to an article. I add citation needed tags myself, but I add a lot more sources than I do tags.

To answer your question, it would help if you read WP:VERIFY particularly the section linked to WP:UNSOURCED and footnote 4. Doug Weller talk 09:55, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
