There are also [[Wikipedia:Citing sources|more elaborate ways to cite sources]].
In [[Wiki#Editing|wiki markup]], you can question an uncited claim by inserting a simple <code>{{tl|Citation needed}}</code> tag, or a more comprehensive {{tnull|Citation needed|reason{{=}}''Your explanation here''|date{{=}}{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}}}.
