Unbundling citations

Hi. Please don't unbundle citations. Having a series of footnotes at the end of every sentence is distracting to the reader; see WP:CITEBUNDLE for more info. Thanks, Levivich (talk) 14:29, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@Levivich:I think that either way the statements are over-referenced. I understand why you undid, but I think the actualbetter improvement would be to reduce the number of references used for each statement; I was trying to demonstrate which were used more to assist in that cleanup. —Ost (talk) 14:33, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Looking at the version at Special:Permalink/1234862825, the only ref that seems overcited to me is #2 (five cites). I'm not sure which of those five cites support all the details in that sentence, but yeah, that could be reduced from five to two or three since the content is no longer particularly new or controversial. The other bundles seem to me to have good reason for multiple cites. Levivich (talk) 14:56, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

@Levivich:Thanks for the understanding and analysis; I appreciate this discussion with you. Admittedly, I tend to prefer to have the individual references unbundled and used on the parts of the statements that they validate instead of all at the end of the lines. My general rationale is that sentences can get split without editors checking which of the bundled references is used for each part of the sentence, and thus the refs can eventually end up with the wrong sentences. As this is a recent and prominent topic with experienced editors like yourself watching it, I will not edit this page in that manner as the scrutiny should help prevent such problems. —Ost (talk) 15:21, 16 July 2024 (UTC)
