A [[Wikipedia_talk:Verifiability/Archive_63#RfC:_Are_.22in_popular_culture.22_entries_.22self-sourcing.22_or_do_they_require_a_reference_under_Wikipedia:Verifiability_and_Wikipedia:Identifying_reliable_sources.3F|self-sourcing example]], according to current consensus by discussion on [[Wikipedia talk:Verifiability|WT:V]], is an examples that is cited to [[WPWikipedia:PRIMARYNo_original_research#Primary.2C_secondary_and_tertiary_sources|primary sources]], or an example with citations that only establish the [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiability]] of the example. An example in an article should have sources that not only establish its verifiability, but also its significance in the context of the article.
 
===Example of a self-sourcing example===
A self-sourcing example might look like the following:
{{divbox|1=white|3=
[[Jiminy Cricket]] is an example of [[arthropods in film]].<sup>[[#Fakeref1|[1]]][[#Fakeref2|[2]]]</sup>{{Better source example}}
<!-- Fake reference -->
::'''References'''
:{{anchor|Fakeref1}}1. {{cite media|title=Pinocchio|author=[[Walt Disney]]|date=1940}}
:{{anchor|Fakeref2}}2. {{cite news |last=Nugent |first=Frank S. |url=http://www.nytimes.com/movie/review?_r=1&res=9A03E2D8113EE33ABC4053DFB466838B659EDE&oref=slogin |title=Pinocchio - The Screen in Review|newspaper=The New York Times |date=February 8, 1940}}
}}
The provided sources establish the [[Wikipedia:Verifiability|verifiability]] of the example. They might even establish its [[Wikipedia:Notability|notability]]. However, they do not discuss the example in the context it's given in the article. Such an example may be challenged or removed.
 
A source that discusses the significance of an example in the context of the article might look like the following:
{{divbox|1=white|3=
[[Jiminy Cricket]] is an example of [[arthropods in film]].<sup>[[#Fakeref3|[1]]]</sup>
<!-- Fake reference -->
::'''References'''
:{{anchor|Fakeref3}}1.{{cite|title=Encyclopedia of Insects|chapter=Insects in Movies|author1=Vincent H. Resh|author2=Ring T. Cardé|publisher=Academic Press|date=2009||isbn=9780080920900|pp=[http://what-when-how.com/insects/movies-insects-in-insects/ 668&mdash;674]|quote={{small|Arguably the most well-known animated arthropod was Jiminy Cricket, who initially appeared in a supporting role in the 1940 Walt Disney feature Pinocchio. Disney animators used a talking cricket, a minor character that appeared in the original Pinocchio story by Carlo Collodi, to unify disparate elements within the film. The character proved to be popular as a “voice of conscience” and appeared in several series of subsequent short subjects and educational films. Jiminy exemplifies the liberties taken with insect morphology by animators; although early sketches depicted the character with more insect-like features, the final film version, with its two arms and two legs, eyes with pupils, and morning coat and vest, resembles a dapper elf more than any arthropod.}} }}
