Match every citation and reference
Every recoverable work cited in the text should appear in the reference list, and every reference-list entry should be cited in the text unless your assignment says otherwise.
Preserve source details
Do not guess initials, dates, page ranges, issue numbers, or DOI strings. Verify details against the source or authoritative publication record.
Use quotation locations carefully
Direct quotations normally need a page or another useful locator. Paraphrases still require attribution even when the wording is completely new.
