If you're confused on how to cite sources in research papers, you're not alone! Check out this video for a step-by-step guide on using MLA source citation within your paper.
I used the UNHMM. The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. It didn't really give an author but I used it and my instructor said it was a reliable source. I don't think because an author does not state their name,that it means the article or site is unreliable. If anything, most of the time I have come across many sites that don't give an author but are extremely reliable. Large organizations, like the Holocaust Museum research the field thoroughly by going to the site of their article or getting first hand accounts. Even sometimes, those sites arecollaborated with many other people that are on the same team or that make up the organization that you're citing. But thank you for the video it was extremely helpful
Hey u did a great job on this explanation of in text citations, u mention that it might b confusing, but u were totally wrong, there was no confusion, thank u for the great instructions.

okay, here's something I can't find any info on: For an in-text citation of a video (be it youtube, a TV show/special, a film) you only need to use either the authors name (if known) or a shortened (to 3 words) name of the video. You DO NOT need to add a specific time in the film that you are quoting or referencing, correct?
Just a question. When I mention the name of the author for example : According to Tomas Billitery author and journalist "Half of high school students said they bullied someone in the past year....." (Tomas Billiteli) Is necessary to write his name again between quotation at the end of the paragraph ??? Thank you
I have a couple questions, if you are putting information from a book and an online source, do you put the citations separately or together? And do you put the author's last name before first name or first name then last? If your'e writing 2 authors for 2 things such as from a journal article and book
thank you so ok much but like if I'm writing about a specific story do I have to keep mentioning the author's name over and over, or should I just put the page number at the end of the quotation??
I think you should revisit this notion of a comma after the word "that" at 2:29. "That" is a relative pronoun and this would be grammatically incorrect.
The speaker in this vid is an excellent teacher. He beautifully teaches in 10 mins what many other teachers would waste a whole term striving to teach!
I didn't catch your name? MLA and APA always scare the crap out of me ( mostly because it gets so confusing and I feel like I was never really properly taught how to use them) but you did a great job breaking this down. Your speaking voice is confident and clear, the arrows throughout the presentation are very helpful and I never felt lost while watching the video. You should teach a class on this. Thanks so much!

I'm trying to contact the creator of this video in order to get written permission to use the content in an online university class. What would be the best way to contact you?
Just an FYI, with the Bestul signal phrase example, there should be a comma OR "that" but not both. A comma and "that" basically serve the same function in most instances: linking one idea to the next, e.g. "I think that I'm crazy about grammar and punctuation." Sorry...my friends call me a grammar and punctuation gorilla for good reason.
If the author didn't provide their last name can I do this: Sarah."Six Reasons To Say NO to Vaccination." The Healthy Home Economist. N.p., n.d. Web. 05 July 2016.
So I have a question. I cited a source and used some information from the article, let's say it was in paragraph 5, then I used another piece of information after that from paragraph 3. Do I cite it like this, "Blah blah blah (PennState par.5). Blah blah blah (PennState par.3)" or is there a different way?
If i am citing from an online article that has NO date, do I put that in the text ?? e.g. ("The Constitution of the United States" n.d.) or do I just completely leave it out?
Honestly, thank you so much for these videos. My son has had some medical issues lately and I've been missing a fair amount of school and I just found out I had an assignment due today using MLA which I have never even heard of before I began my paper and this video explained it perfectly! I've got a nice little step by step section in my notes on MLA now based on this video for me to reference lol.
Grammar mistake at 7:50 *In this sense it is the sacrifice, not the epiphany, that defines the tragic* missing comma I apologize, 😂 I am typing an english essay so every grammar mistake is catching my attention.
Re. your first sample slide: When quoting, if you insist on using the word "that" to introduce your quotation, you would not place a comma after it. It is a subordinator and you are creating a subordinate clause: a comma never follows the subordinator. It doesn't matter that you're following it with a quote. Also, because you are using "that," in addition to dropping the comma you need to lowercase the first word of the quote, putting the "t" in brackets, indicating your edit. But, really, the recommended way to do this would be to drop the "that," keep the comma, and keep the capital letter -- thereby minimizing your necessary edits. "Suggests" is a communication verb that can take an object right after it.
what do you do if you are paraphrasing but need to quote some words in the middle of the sentence, or you have paraphrase that lasts multiple sentences from the same source.
what if when u write something based on a web page you founded on, didnt write word by word i paraphrased it but dont know how to let the reader know it wasnt mine wrote it to support something i wrote previously
My english teacher does it different and then marks me wrong when I've been using online 7th edition mla to do citations... like what am even doing at this school
If it's an in-text citation for an online resource with a known author, do we just write the author's first name or the last name or both? And if both, does the first name come first or the last name?
Thanks for making this. It is really helpful. Could you also make a video on how to write an aside in an MLA paper. For example: If I said in an essay "It was during the second war(the Rif war), that the Spanish suffered an embarrassing and costly defeat in a small town called Annual."
There should NOT be a comma after the word"that" when used in the example Bestful suggests that "the large number of manuscripts shows that the work was popular and widely read into the 16th Century" (921).
+Joann Heck-Meiter I think you might be wrong there. Maybe you just do it differently, but I always hear you need the comma before the quotation marks, even if it is a sentence flowing into the quote. That's just what I've been taught.
every semester I watch this ... I just keep forgetting this shit
anyway, thanks
+Sami H :P
+Sami H same, this is my second time.
its always difficult task to handle all academic task together. In order to do referencing task in a proper way you can take some expert guide online.
take note
HAHAHA same.
Try Citationsy, lifesaver! It really takes the pain away!

I have a couple questions, if you are putting information from a book and an online source, do you put the citations separately or together? And do you put the author's last name before first name or first name then last? If your'e writing 2 authors for 2 things such as from a journal article and book
Are these rules still the same, or have they changed since 2014?
If using in-text citation that was obtained from an online data base, is the author's name the only thing in parentheses?
do i put qotation mark if it is an idiom and how do you cite a talk in a video
What about citing text that is also speech?
This is dope
Thanks
Thanks! :D
thank you so ok much
but like if I'm writing about a specific story do I have to keep mentioning the author's name over and over, or should I just put the page number at the end of the quotation??
Thankyouuuu
Thank you friendooooo
lol thanks bruh it helped a lot :DDD
Do you have the slide show anywhere that I can print? Really helpful stuff
I think you should revisit this notion of a comma after the word "that" at 2:29. "That" is a relative pronoun and this would be grammatically incorrect.
You are correct, Heather. If the word "that" had been left out, then a comma would be required, but as written, it should not be there.
I hope this works for EMS...
Have the rules on this changed since 2014? It is 2016 now
MLA7 came out last year i believe. There are barely any differences.
I mean't MLA8

I came across an in-text citation that uses ‘on’ , what does it mean? e.g. (Eggins, 1994 on Emilia, 2014). Thanks
I've watched a couple of these In-Text Citations MLA videos... this is the best one yet. Thanks so much! It was exactly what I needed.
That’s really useful, it could paraphrase the entire class 3 hours into 10 mins ,many thanks 🙏🏻
If the author didn't provide their last name can I do this:
Sarah."Six Reasons To Say NO to Vaccination." The Healthy Home Economist.

Very helpful. I wasn't sure on how to use a in-text citation on a web article because the web page didn't include a page number. thank you!

Really? No link in the description to the Purdue OWL website? Man, now I have to look... lol
wait what. so we will have to site everything. nothing comes out of a grade 12 student. even in academic English.
what do you do if you are paraphrasing but need to quote some words in the middle of the sentence, or you have paraphrase that lasts multiple sentences from the same source.
I'm trying to cite an Article. It's only a page long, and the last name is Rampell. How would i do this?
what if when u write something based on a web page you founded on, didnt write word by word i paraphrased it but dont know how to let the reader know it wasnt mine wrote it to support something i wrote previously

It is interesting the way you teach about citations so fluidly and yet do not give the links in the description :P
How do you quote the opening narration of a TV show that is used in only in 2 of 7 seasons?
Can someone help me find some good info about how to do APA in text citations for websites?
what if we already know the information, and that using information from others proves our claims?
