Talk:Oui Oui, Si Si, Ja Ja, Da Da

Translated Title
What is one supposed to do with "citation needed" for simple words in common foreign languages? Cite 15 different dictionaries? If the entire problem is that one person wasn't familiar with the languages, I'll gladly verify from personal experience that "Oui" means yes in French, "Si" means yes in Italian and Spanish, "Ja" means yes in at least Dutch and German and "Da" has the same meaning in Russian. (As the other languages are related, it isn't a stretch to assume they are correct as well) I honestly thought anyone with minimal common knowledge would know this, so it seems odd (and unnecessary) to have to prove it. (You wouldn't need to cite a source claiming grass is green, would you?) I'm removing the tag with the reasons that: 1) it's fairly common knowledge and 2) citing this many sources would make the text unnecessarily verbose.

I'll admit the text could be (minimally) improved by citing a source that quotes a Madness member specifying which languages they originally had in mind, reducing the number of languages cited, although this wouldn't make the information currently provided incorrect.
