The '''source template''' is best thought of as a question.  It might be better thought of as the '''Source? template'''.  If you see an article which makes an assertion, but fails to provide a source, you should generally try to find a source and edit it yourself.  But  if you don't have time, or don't know where to start looking for the source, just type in <nowiki>{{source}}</nowiki> after the statement.  This will draw other editors' attention to specific work that needs to be done on an article.
