Talk:Tuta absoluta

Quote length

Hi @Diannaa: Ok so:

About WP:NFCC - I assume you won't object if I shorten them all down to the first few words and then ellipsis (...) them?
What is Quotations from sources should only be provided if the material is controversial or likely to be challenged about?

Our non-free content policy allows short quotations, but their use should be kept to a bare minimum as part of our mandate to provide an encyclopedia that can be freely copied. Adding a quotation for each citation is not one of the uses mentioned at Wikipedia:Non-free content#Text. In practice, this means that we don't add a quote to every citation - we only include a quote if absolutely necessary. For example if the material is controversial or likely to be challenged.— Diannaa 🇨🇦 (talk) 20:48, 26 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
