Usage

Enter this tag in the thumbnail caption of an image as a request for other editors to find citations for that image:

  1. to let the readers of the article know that the image adds unverified information to the article.
  2. to request that the image follows Wikipedia:Citing sources, Wikipedia:Verifiability, and Wikipedia:Reliable sources.

Note: this template is not for copyright status – only for verifiability of material depicted in the image as relating to the article in which this template is used.

This template is a self-reference and so is part of the Wikipedia project rather than the encyclopedic content.

This template automatically adds articles to Category:Articles with unsourced statements.
