  • As a researcher and student, I understand that not all links can be readily available web links. However, it makes the work of tracking down a reference orders of magnitude harder when there isn't a little superscript number I can click on that maps to a single reference I can cite. If page numbers are too much to ask for, then they're at least on my dream list, but at the very least could you tell us which lines in the article were sourced from which sources? I thought it would be more productive saying something here than peppering the page with "citation needed", "who", and so on, basically everywhere, as the extent to which I would have to do that would render the article illegible. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2002:AD16:23AB:0:3A60:77FF:FE4D:BEF5 (talk) 18:43, 2 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I understand your frustration. Wikipedia has guidelines for editing that address the same issue you brought up. (For example, MOS:MED#Citing_medical_sources.) Editors are always working on improving articles like this. However, until we get to it, and if you ever did figure out the specific source for a statement, you can help by adding in-line citations.
