Maintenance tags[edit]

User Staszek Lem keeps adding a maintenance tag asking for citations but refuses to understand that this tag is no use without in-line requests for citations. He claims that he cannot add requests for citation to "every line", Well, every line doesn't require a request for citation. Anyway, if he claims that citations are missing the best thing for him to do would be to do same research work and add the citations. Unfortunately too many people in the Wikipedia, like Staszek Lem, just add maintenance tags but seem to hope they can leave the actual work to other users. This is the reason why the Wikipedia is brimming with way too many maintenance tags, some being rather ancient and many useless. --Maxl (talk) 09:18, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
