Usage

Enter this tag in the body of an article as a request for other editors to find citations:

  1. to label a passage which is incomplete without a cited source of information
  2. to label a quotation which lacks a citation, as per Wikipedia:Citing sources.

Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about living persons should be removed immediately, not tagged. See this section of WP:BLP.

To find all pages that use this template, see Category:All articles with unsourced statements: a count is maintained by User:Dragons_flight/Category_tracker. The articles will also be categorised by month, by a bot. These categories are subcategories of Category:Articles with unsourced statements. For articles which lack sources, please visit Category:Articles lacking sources.

This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.

You may use the optional date parameter, e.g. {{Fact|date=July 2024}}. This helps with the categorisation of articles requiring citations. Articles tagged with this template without the parameter will be given the parameter by a bot.

The simplest way to add this template to an article is to copy and paste {{Fact|{{subst:DATE}}}} at the appropriate place or use {{subst:Fact-now}}
