websites, blogs, Knowledge, and messages on Usenet and Internet message boards are considered self-published. With self-published sources, no independent entity stands between the author and publication; the material may not have been subject to any form of fact-checking, legal scrutiny, or peer review. Anyone can create a website or pay to have a book published and then claim to be an expert in a certain field. For that reason, self-published material is usually not acceptable as a reliable source, with some

databases, such as citation indexes and census surveys, are primary sources. Primary sources that have been published by a reliable source may be used for the purposes of attribution in Knowledge, but only with care, because it's easy to misuse primary sources. For that reason, edits that rely on primary sources should only make descriptive claims that can be checked by anyone without specialist knowledge. Any interpretation of primary source material requires a secondary source.
34: 391:—If a reader goes to the cited source to validate a statement, or to gain further understanding of the topic, the form cited should remain stable, continuing to contain the information used by the editor to support the words. In this sense a book or journal citation is superior to an online source where the link may become 70: 1173:
For example, an original plot summary is acceptable, because it merely summarizes the narrative and provides background for understanding the attributed critical and interpretive material that the article should contain.

This is why the exception for dubious and self-published sources requires that they be used in Knowledge articles largely written from sources independent of the subject. If there are no independent sources on a subject, Knowledge should not have an article on it. It doesn't matter whether the crank

A fundamental threshold for inclusion in Knowledge is whether material can be reliably attributed—and this is independent of whether any individual editor holds it to be true. In particular, material that an editor believes to be true but that cannot be attributed to a reliable source should not be
1085:
Redundant prose attributions may be excised for clarity; it is not necessary to prepend "according to..." to every place that a controversial source is cited. Where multiple sources state the same thing, a generic prose attribution, such as "According to numerous scientists...", may be used. Prose

These issues are particularly pertinent to Knowledge where various editors involved in an article may have their own expertise or position with respect to the topic. Not all sources on a topic are equally reliable, and some sources will have differing degrees of reliability in different contexts.

Wikipedians, as such, should not claim expertise; we cannot decide the truth in any field. But we can follow the consensus of experts. In some subjects, this consensus is likely to be the truth; in others, it is the best information available. Where experts disagree, all we can do is accurately
173:
Wikipedians do care about the truth, but we are mindful of our own limitations. We want to produce a high-quality encyclopedia, and by insisting on the use of reliable sources, we depend on the published research and opinions of informed commentators. Editors should ensure that all majority and

Prose attributions have the effect of distancing Knowledge from a particular statement. Rather than conveying the message that Knowledge endorses the statement, a prose attribution conveys the message that Knowledge merely acknowledges that the named source has indeed made the statement. Prose

If no newer sources are available, it is reasonable to caveat use of sources with an indication of the age of the source. 837:: MySpace is generally not acceptable even as a self-published source, because most of it is anonymous or pseudonymous. If the identity of the author can be confirmed in a reliable, published source, then it can be used with the caution appropriate to a self-published source. 1139:
