Use when auditing metadata, crawlability, structured data, or indexability related to Cite authoritative external sources. Verify the rendered HTML and HTTP response rather than relying only on source files.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Cite authoritative external sources Citing authoritative sources is a key trust signal for E-E-A-T, demonstrating that your content is well-researched and grounded in verifiable information. ## Quick Reference - Link to reputable, high-authority websites to validate factual claims, data, or quotes - Ensure citations are highly relevant and provide extra value to the reader - Use descriptive anchor text when linking to external research, studies, or official sources ## Check Review the content for any factual claims that should be backed up with a link to an authoritative source. ## Fix Add external links to reputable websites (e.g., .gov, .edu, or industry leaders) to support your data points. ## Explain Explain how citing external sources contributes to the 'Trustworthiness' pillar of Google's E-E-A-T framework. ## Code Review Review metadata generation, rendered HTML, structured data, and response headers related to Cite authoritative external sources.

How to install
mdr add thedaviddias/front-end-checklist/citations@sha256:22313d6510e7b025The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261004.4b0ddb9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
