Talk:Western Independence Party of Saskatchewan

Citation needed

edit

Wikipedia:Verifiability says, in part,

"The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth—whether readers can check that material in Wikipedia has already been published by a reliable source, not whether editors think it is true. To show that it is not original research, all material added to articles must be attributable to a reliable, published source appropriate for the content in question. In practice you do not need to attribute everything. This policy requires that all quotations and anything challenged or likely to be challenged be attributed in the form of an inline citation that directly supports the material."

Wikipedia:V#Tagging_a_sentence.2C_section.2C_or_article says:

"If you want to request a source for an unsourced statement, consider tagging a sentence with the [citation needed] template by writing [citation needed] or [citation needed]. Other templates are available here for tagging sections or entire articles. Alternatively, leave a note on the talk page requesting a source, or move the material there."

You deal with a "citation needed" tag by providing a citation from a reliable source, not but removing the tag. Ground Zero | t 10:07, 1 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Challenges should not be frivolous: Challenges should not be made frivolously or casually, and should never be made to be disruptive or to make a point. Editors making a challenge should have reason to believe the material is contentious, false, or otherwise inappropriate.

State your reasons why you find a statement of fact to be contentious, false, or otherwise inappropriate. Leader -WI Party of Saskatchewn (talk) 00:02, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Capitalization

edit

"provincial" is not a proper noun in this instance. See Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters). "province" would be capitalized in "the Province of Saskatchewan", but here "provincial" is being used to modify "political party", so it is an adjective, not a proper noun. If you can show me where is Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters) it says that "provincial" should be capitalized, then you can revert. Ground Zero | t 10:07, 1 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

You have no objection to 'Federal party' only 'Provincial political party'? Leader -WI Party of Saskatchewn (talk) 00:28, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

No, you're quite right. I missed that, and the unnecessary capitalization of "independence". None of these are proper nouns. Ground Zero | t 01:14, 2 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
