The unregistered editor who has gone through this article and added "citation needed" to virtually every sentence apparently does not comprehend that a citation at the end of a paragraph refers to all the material between footnotes. It's possible some of the material needs additional citations, but let's not carry "citation needed" to extremes.

Unless somebody objects with specific examples of statements made in the article that the present citations do not justify, I'm going to delete all the "citations needed." Smallchief ( talk 22:41, 27 January 2014 (UTC) reply
