Maybe You Should Finish Filling in Those Footnotes
Posted by David Zaring

Jack Chin surveys the number of published articles with footnotes explaining "need cite."  Seems kinda embarrassing, I know.  But rather than bad editing, perhaps the hundred-odd articles might be better thought of as humble paeans to the necessarily incomplete nature of published scholarship.  Do we not all, at some point, need a cite?  Which I'm sure will make the former editors of the Northwestern and Virginia law reviews (go ahead! run your own searches!) feel a lot better.
