Regarding references: I generally only list multiple references when dealing with a highly contentious issue. It's a habit developed on the Straight Dope Message Board where the word "Cite?" can strike fear into the heart of any polemicist. As for articles that are largely factually based (geography, for example) I don't usually see the need, unless, at the outside, I'm exposing some rare and little-known fact. Basically, any fact that someone would be highly inclined to question is a fact I'm gonna put a citation for.
Also, Mav suggested that I apply for Admin status, so I'll do that now. Would someone also please explain what responsibilities come with this?
