Expanding article

Hi Dave, do I take it that this article will not be expanded from your recent edit, i.e. removing the citation tag? And if it is to be expanded, it will containe only one source? Articles must be referenced, as you know, and tags should only be removed when citations have been requested. I may of course be wrong, and in that case, could you post a link for the relavent policy on this, thanking you in advance, regards --Domer48 10:32, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Everything on the article page as it stands at present can be found in the source provided, which is exemplary. That does not mean it cannot be expanded further with new sources provided. There is no Wikipedia requirement to provide umpteen different sources which all say the same thing. If this were an article which had contentious comment, it might requre some alternative source material, but that is not the case here. Maybe you should have a look at some other WP articles such as Francisco Franco where very many seriously contentious and heresay things are up on the page without any obvious citations.

I see what you mean, re article, but is there not section tags there for that? Rather than tagging the whole article which has considerable referneces. You are quite right though about not having to provide umpteen different sources, but I consider the ones that are there should be referenced? This could after all, be cited by some editors as a precedent, and then we would have policies coming out left right and centre. And since it is only one source Since the article is not contentious, and the article being small, surly it could be done quite easly? Thanks --Domer48 12:15, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
