  • Numerous paragraphs lack any citations, per WP:DYKSG#D2. The article also has an orphan tag. Also, please lowercase the second and succeeding words in the subheads per MOS. Yoninah (talk) 17:54, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Which ones? The only paragraphs I can find that don't have inlines are #1 and #3 in §Fault type effects, which seem to me like they're supported by the subsequent paragraphs (the choice of line breaks in that section being arbitrary, and one of the unreferenced paragraphs being a single sentence). Did I miss something? jp×g 21:10, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Yes. #1 could be said to be an introduction, but there are too many facts in #2 that lack a cite. Generally, when you break a paragraph, you should add a cite at the end. Yoninah (talk) 21:21, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Well, I deorphaned it and fixed the section headings, but the article author is going to have to fix those paragraphs, since I don't have access to all the sources they used (nor am I sure of which sources that text is from). jp×g 21:30, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
  • Looks like the page creator has made sure that all paragraphs have at least one citation. Restoring tick per JPxG's review. Yoninah (talk) 00:36, 25 December 2020 (UTC)
