User talk:Tehmikuji

Thanks, John
Fixed my signature. I was thinking the "treat the above as wiki markup" was the same checkbox as the "use raw signature" checkbox every help document stated, but the wording was unclear.

I seem to have it working fine now though. For the record, my name in my signature is intentionally not capitalized. tehmikuji (talk) 08:09, 26 October 2010 (UTC)

Material likely to be challenged
"A big problem with all of it is finding citations for claims, many of which feel like public knowledge..."

I saw your questions on Talk:Click track about citing sources for general knowledge and, since I see you're still sporadically editing elsewhere on Wikipedia, I just wanted to come by and reply directly. Here's what I said:

''Yes, that's often a basic problem here. I feel that sometimes it's OK to add uncited information like this to low profile articles that are already missing citations (like here at Click track). Take a look at WP:CHALLENGE for why this can be justifiable. On the other hand, always keep in mind that policy and culture are generally not to. Try to keep uncited statements as clear and unlikely to be challenged as possible.''

Basically uncited stuff is sometimes acceptable when it's definitely not something that anybody will come by to contest. Quotes are very bad, for example, but you can see that Sun, Tree and Shirt all appear not to source the obvious information in the first sentence of each article. It's the kind of thing you can't go nuts with but the answer is technically no, sometimes you don't need to provide a citation.
