Citations

Hey Brian, {{fact}} tags don't necessarily mean the person doubts the material -- citations are also important because they give Wikipedia editors an easy way to confirm facts (which helps protect against vandalism like people sneaking in fake facts) and they give readers an easy way to research the item more deeply. A potential citation, then, could be a link to a copy of the source to check it out. But usually citations should be from third-party sources (where the item is mentioned in a professionally fact-checked newspaper articles, etc).
