It's always good practice where possible to add references to the source of any information, to CITE sources.
Citation Templates / Macros
For sources which will be references or CITED multiple times it's quicker in the long run to create CITATION templates and some are in use already so these same sources can be CITED multiple times instead of creating the same reference multiple times. See the below category here or follow the CATEGORY breadcrumbs in the footer of the page.
