Cite Unseen is a user script that helps readers quickly perform an initial evaluation of the sources used in a given article. The script adds icons to identified sources that indicate various attributes of the source, based on the linked URL and other metadata. Icons are added based on source type (news, opinion pieces, satire, etc.); influence (government, predatory, sponsored); medium (blogs, books, social media, etc.); and reliability, based on source reliability lists from various language versions of Wikipedia.

As a script available for use across Wikimedia projects, its documentation and code is currently hosted on Meta-Wiki.
