Oct 16, 2021 at 17:10 | comment | added | Steven Jeuris Mod | @Ooker, all answers on this site require citations. That doesn't warrant a tag, as stated by the OP: "I think that the standard of evidence on this site is such that references are important for any good answer" | |
Oct 16, 2021 at 15:37 | comment | added | Ooker | "tags set expectations" – Yes. I would say that when I need to find a reference for an information, it may be that I have a skepticism on it. "Does the tag add anything implicitly which is not already explicitly stated in such questions?" – so would having skepticism on the information be the implicit thing that the tag conveys? | |
