Yeah, I hate that. Why not just use {{unsourced}}, it is just a good a warning (better, even), and not at all as annoying.
How about we give a class to template:fact so that people could add
#cite-request { display: none; }
to their skin's CSS and make them vanish, if they're sufficiently annoyed by them? That way everyone's preferences can coexist.
I'm more concerned about how it looks to readers, not to people who know how to edit their skin settings.
I don't think that it would be a good idea to hide them by default, though, since then almost nobody would ever see them.
{{unsourced}} is well and good when an article has _no_ references, but when an article is a blend of sourced and unsourced statements I think it's better to have something that we can use to label individual statements as needing citations. If they make the article look ugly, one could consider that as a visual representation of the state of the article's verification. We can de-uglify by adding appropriate references.
