=== Notes === * The {{para|reason}} parameter is for an explanation why you think the material needs a source. It is optional but very helpful. It is displayed as a [[tooltip]] in some browsers (hover the mouse here {{Citation needed|reason=If and only if this text is displayed, the reason parameter is working in your browser|date={{currentmonth}} {{currentyear}}}} to check behaviour of your browser). For example, the following usage might be appropriate to the claim that "Humphrey Bogart was an avid snooker player": <br> {{tnull|Citation needed|reason{{=}}This claim needs a reliable source; Bogart was a famous actor but his major biographies don't mention snooker.|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}} ** Use only [[plain text]] for the {{para|reason}} parameter. It does not support [[Help:Wiki markup|wiki markup]] like wikilinks, which can mess up the tooltip. ** Double quotation marks used within the {{para|reason}} parameter will likewise mess up the tooltip; use single quotes or the HTML code <code>&quot;</code> instead. ** If omitted, the tooltip "This claim needs references to reliable sources." is used by default. * This template should usually be installed directly ''after'' punctuation, such as a full stop (period) or a comma. * Use of this template places the article into [[:Category:All articles with unsourced statements]]/ * Remove the template when you add a citation for a statement.
