Comment

  • In the footnote, specify the specific page number you are referring to. In the bibliography, indicate the page range for the entire article.
  • For online articles, specify a URL or the name of the database. Many journal articles have a DOI number (Digital Object Identifier). A DOI forms a permanent URL that begins with https://doi.org/. This URL is preferred over the URL shown in the web browser’s address field.
  • Scholarly articles often list multiple authors. If there are four or more authors, indicated up to ten in the bibliography; in footnotes, only indicate the first, followed by et al. (‘and others’). For more than ten authors (not shown here), only list the first seven in the bibliography, followed by et al.
