You should use citations anything you are sourcing something that provides the information especially when the source is obscure or specific. This includes Episodes and Novels.
Epithet Erased Episode
Whenever you use an Epithet Erased episode link to this wiki article, formatted like so:
[[Epithet Erased]] | [<link to article> EP<ep #> - <episode title>]
When ever you source twitter please you the following format.
[<link> <twitter account name> - <date>]
or when applicable:
[link [title of tweet of thread] - <date> - <Twitter account name> (<number of tweets deep in thread>)]
or
[link <twitter account name> in response to <twitter account name> - <date>]
With the entire name linking to the source tweet.

Citation Tags
Citation Tags are tags that an be placed to note something about citations. These re:
Citation Needed
Citation Needed is a citation tag that should be added at the end of a statement that needs to be sourced but for whatever reason it is not there and you yourself cannot acquire it.
{{CitNeeded}}
Out of Order
Out of Order is a citation tag that should be added at the end of a citation that's link no longer functions. These should be replaced with a working citation when possible.
