== Examples == === Example 1 === :<code><nowiki>This sentence shows the template used at the end.{{Citation needed|reason=Reliable source needed for the whole sentence|date=</nowiki>{{Currentmonthname}} {{Currentyear}}}}</code> This wikitext will be rendered as follows: :This sentence shows the template used at the end.{{Citation needed|reason=Reliable source needed for the whole sentence|date={{Currentmonthname}} {{Currentyear}}}} === Example 2 === :<code><nowiki>Humphrey Bogart has won several snooker world championships.{{Citation needed|date=</nowiki>{{currentmonthname}} {{currentyear}}}}</code> The template indicates that it may be that Humphrey Bogart played snooker at some point and it may be that he won some tournaments at some point but no ''reliable'', ''published'' sources were given to verify it and the information is not considered common knowledge. === Example 3 === If it is considered that he might have won just one tournament, the template may be placed accordingly; and a reason for the need of a citation may be given, displayed when the mouse hovers on "citation needed": :<code><nowiki>Humphrey Bogart has won several{{Citation needed|date=</nowiki>{{Currentmonthname}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}|reason=Only aware he won one tournament.
