Citation needed tag
Before adding a CN tag, consider:


 * Dont understand - don't understand a statement, or feel that "non-expert" readers are likely to be confused. Use Clarify, Explain, Confusing, Examples, Why or Non sequitur, as appropriate, instead.
 * False -  be bold and delete it!
 * False/Poorly sources contentious and about living folks - Remove it immediately!
 * Trivial - Per WP:DIARY, do not tag excessively trivial claims. Remove them.
 * False and likely to be put back - Delete and add a suitable edit summary such as "Very doubtful – please add a citation if you return the content". If the original statement was accurate after all, this gives someone the chance to put it back, hopefully with a proper citation this time.
 * Plausible, and consistent with other statements in the article, but you doubt that it is totally accurate, then consider making a reasonable effort to find a reference yourself. In the process, you may end up confirming that the statement needs to be edited or deleted to better reflect the best knowledge about the topic.


 * If an article, or a section within an article, is under-referenced, then consider adding an Unreferenced, Refimprove, or Unreferenced section tag to the article or section concerned – these tags allow you to indicate more systemic problems to the page.
