Difference between revisions of "Category:Pages using the "citation needed" template"

List of pages using the "citation needed" template.

(there is no discussion page and i am not allowed to create one so I'll say it here to be freely reverted) Wouldn't it be a better idea for a category of comics (notice comics, not pages) not using the "citation needed template"... oh and a category of non-comic pages using the template? idk. 172.70.175.178 20:11, 3 May 2022 (UTC)Bumpf

(Even more than you I cannot create a Talk: page, so same conditions apply here... Once someone creates the page, I'm sure they will move us both over there, if our chatter still exists.)

Might be a bad idea to have the set of all non-CNed pages (comic or otherwise), because it should not be a cue to visit them all and disqualify them by revoking the state of absence.

And I'm not sure how the backend of a Wiki server can be persuaded to properly present "all pages that match this but don't match this other thing", in a rigorous manner. Also one that doesn't fall foul of Russell's Paradox, potentially, unless self-membership is rigorously pre-filtered out as even a potential option.

As to "non-comics that use it", if you go to the very last page of the list, below, you should see the end of the number-starting articles and the few (not insignificant) remaining pages that have got {{Citation needed}} in them, despite not being proper comic-pages.

Oh, except for the very first thing you should see below. The oddity that a Category page that uses the template must apparently be considered a subcategory (though technically a direct member, not one by category membership, unless I've missed something) interests me. I must actually inspect a Wiki source-code at some point, to see if the devs commented or even coded the handler with awareness of this possibility.
