Always cite a source for any new information, using <ref>reference tags like this</ref>, containing the name of the source, the author, page number, publisher or web address (if applicable).
Reliable sources typically include: articles from magazines or newspapers (particularly scholarly journals), or books by recognized authors (basically, books by respected publishers). In other words, works by accredited scientists who have trained and studied to perform accurate scientific experiments will be taken over books published by people with no training.
Articles are to be written from a neutral point of view. Wikipedia is not concerned with facts or opinions, it just summarizes reliable sources. Real scholarship actually does not say what understanding of the world is "true," but only with what there is evidence for. In the case of science, this evidence must ultimately start with physical evidence, for which there is none to suggest that "indigo children" are a real phenomenon.Ian.thomson (talk) 13:47, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
