"Citation needed"

Is this some kind of demonstration? This article has far more references than usual, everything is backed up by evidence. --IdaLandberg (talk) 20:18, 26 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Statements like "Krag's perception was captivating and won widespread acclaim" need citations. "Captivating" is NPOV. – Jonesey95 (talk) 04:28, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

That is one statement. Someone has put in "citation needed" almost 30 times. And the statemenst already have references. One does not have to citate every sentence one write when the information is from the same reference - then it is OK with a reference at the end of the paragraph. We can't have it that wikipedia are strichter than academic papers..? There are so many articles here that have far less references than this, not to mention the "old" article about Ynglingatal, that had very few references. This looks like some demonstration because the references and the contributours are not English. I can put in more references, but from an academic wiewpoint it is not nescessary. Som of the "citation needed"-marks are just ridiculous, like "Snorri wrote Y.saga on the basis of Y.tal" that is common knowlengde and self evident. That Y.tal ends with Ragnvald is also self evident as the poem is citated... --IdaLandberg (talk) 09:45, 27 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
