This is an
essay. It contains the advice or opinions of one or more Wikipedia contributors. This page is not an encyclopedia article, nor is it one of
Wikipedia's policies or guidelines, as it has not been
thoroughly vetted by the community. Some essays represent widespread norms; others only represent minority viewpoints. |
The key to Wikipedia:Verifiability is whether another person is able to verify that at least one reliable source has previously published each claim made in an article. All content must be verifiable, but all content does not necessarily need to be verified through the inclusion of an inline citation. [1]
As of 2022, the English Wikipedia does not require, and has never required, an inline citation for all material. Uncited does not mean unverifiable.
Content is verifiable if, using all the means at the disposal of an educated and dedicated person, the content in question can be found in a source that Wikipedia editors deem to be reliable for that claim.
Consider a claim such as " Queen Victoria reigned for more than 60 years."
The status of this claim is:
