Line 18:
Unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material about [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons|living persons]] should be '''removed immediately'''. Do not tag it— remove it. For more information, see the section on [[Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons#Remove unsourced or poorly sourced contentious material|poorly sourced contentious material]] in the Biography of Living Persons policy.
 
Material which is doubtful and harmful may be removed immediately, rather than tagged. See [[WikipediaWP:Citing sourcesBURDEN]].
 
If no reference is given, use the {{Tlx|citation needed}} tag instead.
