|quote = I can NOT emphasize this enough. There seems to be a terrible bias among some editors that some sort of random speculative 'I heard it somewhere' pseudo information is to be tagged with a 'needs a cite' tag. Wrong. It should be removed, aggressively, unless it can be sourced. This is true of all information, but it is particularly true of negative information about living persons.

|source = –Jimmy Wales {{cite web|title="Zero information is preferred to misleading or false information"|publisher=WikiEN-l electronic mailing list archive|author=Jimmy Wales|date=2006-05-16|accessdate=2006-06-11|url=http://mail.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikien-l/2006-May/046440.html}}}}

We have about fifty links to Harvard University's excellent [http://ocp.hul.harvard.edu/ Open Collections Program]. Our articles need more links to those and similar high quality references.

We have almost 300 links to Stormfront, which describes itself as a "Racialist discussion board for pro-White activists and anyone else interested in White survival." We have over 350 links to the popular conspiracy theory website prisonplanet.com. Below are some often-used sources of questionable reliability. Many should be removed from articles on sight with very few exceptions. A good way to do that is periodically check for external links, and pull the ones you find. The others must be used carefully if at all. Remember to leave a useful edit summary.
