Exactly. That's the great benefit the wiki concept gives. You do as
much as you can and want to do, and others do the same. Eventually, it
is done. And so the beat goes on...
At the moment, I see far too many {{fact}} templates in articles. I
can never remember how to do <ref>s, simple as they are, so I usually
just use [
http://link] and maybe leave a note on the talk page.

If it wasn't such a pain to add references

else has already typed in the same reference in another article.
I never bother with this myself. I use <ref> tags, but enter the
reference itself as text with maybe a link. I leave formatting,
citation templates etc. to someone who cares.
