All of those things were already tagged; what I was doing was replacing broken or home-made "tags" with proper ones. Quite often people seem to get confused and do things like link to "citation needed" as though it were an article (it's a redirect) rather than Wikipedia:Citing sources. Sometimes they substitute the template, which is a bad idea because it leaves the article text full of conditional statements and <includeonly> tags and such stuff. Sometimes they just write "(citation needed)", which is OK in a way (though a link to let people know what they're on about is better) but to reduce the burden of redistribution it's easier to be able to settle on a standard template (or in practise, set of templates) for maintenance tags of this sort, so that they can be stripped out automatically if desired – Gurch 01:37, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
