    This helped a lot. I was trying to figure out a way to cite the Bible correctly because I am comparing verses to a poem for one of my courses. I looked at previous videos from other people and those were confusing. This is clear and transparent.

    Hi! Miss Pickey here! You have a typo on the page where you first cite Foner about minute 2:25 you have (Foner, 44), There should be NO COMMA! Can you fix that?
    Otherwise this is great! I share your videos with my students A LOT!

    Thanks for sharing; however, why did you use all CAPs in your examples? Very misleading to students who are just learning about MLA.

    how can i cite what someone said in an article? like an article and the author interviewed a person

    • @MisterMessinger
      @MisterMessinger  2 роки тому +1

      It sounds like you should watch at 4:46. You are citing a source in a source.

    • @batsoupp
      @batsoupp 2 роки тому

      Yeah watched it earlier and it sounds like what I'm talking about xD
      I'm trying to figure out who should i quote/cite in an article where the author inserted many dialogues from different people.
      Thank you man!

    • @batsoupp

      @@MisterMessinger should I follow this procedure even if the article is In a website? Or should use the "how to qoute online source" process?

    • @MisterMessinger
      @MisterMessinger  2 роки тому

      Yes, the rule of thumb is to cite the original author no matter if it is in a book, website or article. Cite whoever said the quote not necessarily where you read it.

  • @lindsaywilson5708
    @lindsaywilson5708 10 місяців тому

    Your works cited is wrong on 1:33. We never list a source on a works cited by first name, and your intext is (Bickham), and the source is listed as Jes first. On the works cited page it should say, Bickham, Jes.
