(also known by the redirects  and ) is a template used to identify claims in articles, particularly if questionable, that need a citation to a reliable source. The template produces a superscripted    ব্যবহার   টীকা:  The date-substitution template may be used to automatically generate the date, e.g., {{Citation needed|{{subst:DATE}}}}. See Help:Substitution for more information.  The  parameter need not be added by the editor: if not entered, a bot will soon add it. The date parameter consists of the full English name of the current month with initial capital, a space, and the year, not full dates; e.g., "January 2013", but not "jan13". Any deviation from these two rules will result in an "invalid date parameter" error.  The  (without leading capital) parameter is optional but often helpful. It is displayed as a tooltip. For example, the following usage might be appropriate to the claim that "Humphrey Bogart has won several snooker world championships.":   If double quotation marks are used within the  parameter, the reason will not be displayed as a tooltip; use single quotes instead.  Use only plain text for the  parameter. It does not support wiki markup like wikilinks which can "mess up" the tooltip. Use of this template places the article into :Category:Articles with unsourced statements and :Category:Articles with unsourced statements from   (example). Remove the template when you add a citation for a statement.   উদাহরণসমূহ  উদাহরণ ১ This sentence shows the template used at the end.  The above wikitext will render as follows:  This sentence shows the template used at the end.  উদাহরণ ২ The template indicates that it may be that Humphrey Bogart played snooker at some point and it may be that he won some tournaments at some point but no reliable, published sources were given to verify it and the information is not considered common knowledge.  Humphrey Bogart has won several snooker world championships.  উদাহরণ ৩ If it is considered that he might have won just one tournament, the template may be placed accordingly; and a reason for the need of a citation may be given, displayed when the mouse hovers on "citation needed":  Humphrey Bogart has won several snooker world championships.   কখন এই টেমপ্লেট ব্যবহার করবেন না   Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about living persons should be removed immediately. Do not tag it: immediately remove it. This includes material that is doubtful, harmful, or possibly libelous. For some policy about this, see the sections "Remove unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material" at Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons and "Burden of evidence" at Wikipedia:Verifiability.  The {{Citation needed}} template is intended for use when there is a general question of the verifiability of a statement, or when an editor believes that a reference verifying the statement should be provided. Other templates are available for other or more specific issues; see the list of inline templates. For example, claims that you think are incorrect should be tagged with , and those which represent a non-neutral view should be tagged with . Being specific about the nature of the problem will help other editors correct it.  If you have the time and ability to find an authoritative reference, please do so. Then add the citation yourself, or correct the article text. After all, the ultimate goal is not to merely identify problems, but to fix them.  While an editor may add this template to any uncited passage for any reason, many editors object to what they perceive as overuse of this tag, particularly in what is known as "drive-by" tagging, which is applying the tag without attempting to address the issues at all (hit-and-run). Consider whether adding this tag in an article is the best approach before using it, and use it judiciously. Wikipedia's verifiability policy does not require reliable sources for common well-known facts (e.g., "The Moon orbits the Earth"), or that citations be repeated through every sentence in a paragraph. All direct quotations and facts whose accuracy might be challenged (e.g., statistics) require citations. See WP:MINREF for the list of material that is absolutely required to be followed by an inline citation, rather than a general reference or no citation at all. Also note that the burden of evidence lies with the editor who adds or restores material.  This template is intended for specific passages that need citation. For entire articles or sections that contain significant material lacking sources (rather than just specific short passages), there are other, more appropriate templates, such as  or .  Do not use this template on policies, guidelines, or other non-article pages.   How to respond to this tag   The addition of this tag is a request for an inline citation to support the tagged statement. If you are able to provide a citation to support the claim, then please do so.  Except for certain kinds of claims about living people, which require immediate production of inline citations, there is no specific deadline for providing citations. Please do not delete information that you believe is correct simply because no-one has provided a citation within an arbitrary time limit. Where there is some uncertainty about its accuracy, most editors are willing to wait about a month to see whether a citation can be provided.  আরও দেখুন   Template:Citation needed (lead), a similar template specifically for the lead of articles  Wikipedia:Citing sources  Especially: Unsourced material  Wikipedia:Verifiability  Wikipedia:Reliable sources  Wikipedia:WikiProject Fact and Reference Check   Inline templates   : for "actual quotations" which need citations to make them proper. : request clarification of wording or interpretation. : request examples for clarification. : flag a general, yet factual statement as needing to be made more specific before it can be verified. : request a page number for an existing citation.
