To celebrate, the Wikipedia community are asking "every librarian on earth", whatever their discipline, to add at least one citation to a currently uncited fact. Doing so will not be onerous (we are told here) it?s the sort of simple task that can be completed "over a cup of coffee". Maybe two coffees. Maybe three?
