Tip on citations

Latest comment: 16 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

I don't want to be picky, but to me there is an overabundance of citations in this article: the same fact appears in two, three, or four different sources, and all of these instances have been used as citations. Only one cite per fact is necessary: it reduces clutter and the eyes are not drawn away from the importance of the text by all these little blue bracketed numbers. -- saberwyn 13:35, 26 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Just triangulating... Ok there is one with four, which is a bit ridiculous, but that's the "she was scrapped" so has a certain finality and weight to it.--Wmjames (talk) 02:52, 27 August 2008 (UTC)Reply
