" Say where you found the material Shortcut: WP:SAYWHEREYOUGOTIT
It is improper to copy a citation from an intermediate source without making clear
that you saw only that intermediate source. For example, you might find some
information on a web page which says it comes from a certain book. Unless you
look at the book yourself to check that the information is there, your reference
is really the web page, which is what you must cite. The credibility of your article
rests on the credibility of the web page, as well as the book, and your article must
make that clear. "
