[edit]What are specifically-marked weasel-worded phrases? User101010 04:26, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
- That doesn't explain "specifically-marked". I was surprised to see that "attribution needed" "specifically marks" a phrase as "weasel-worded". How is a reader and/or editor supposed to know what this refers to, without needing to track it down through the various templates in a given article, or even needing to guess that it is included by way of a template (not obvious to a non- or new editor)?
- Could the category text be expanded to explain that this marking is by way of templates, and list a few such templates and above all what these "specific marks" look like? — the Sidhekin (talk) 12:57, 15 February 2008 (UTC)
Rename and a list
[edit]I renamed this category to Category:Articles with marked weasel-word phrases. It is still a clunky title.
Nevermind--I think we would need a bot to do this.
Here is the list of what qualifies as a Weasel word: User:Travb#Weasel_words This list used to be on WP:WEASEL but was deleted. Trav (talk) 09:56, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
