Please excuse the MAJOR typo(s) in the first few slides. They are pretty ugly. And, if you can forgive those me for those slides, then please subscribe for more academic-related resources: ua-cam.com/channels/c1rpQYl0u0DHsi0QnOjNVQ.html
Thank you for the question. According to MLA, in that case you would cite according to the "title" of the video. The entry would look something like this: "Title." UA-cam, uploaded by the name of the channel, date, URL. The citation itself would lean on the title of the video (or, possibly, an abbreviated version of the title).
Honestly, I would abbreviate the title in the citation (not the entry) if it is a lengthy one or if it lends itself to an abbreviation. MLA has no true abbreviation rule for this situation.
Hi Dr. Foltz! Hope you are doing well! I have a question. I want to write about ideas I got from a youtube video. I have three ideas that are in minutes 6-8 (as an example) of the UA-cam video. Do I need to use a citation from the video for each of those individual ideas/ sentences with a time stamp for each? Or, could I put them all together and use a long time stamp for the video at the end?
Hi! I am sorry I am just seeing this; I've just recently been working on my channel again. Generally speaking, if the time stamps are close together, I would use one range for your citation. If, however, there's quite a distance among them, you should probably do individual citations. With that said, I wouldn't have an issue with a range of about 6-8 minutes. Your teacher/professor might, however.
I have seen it both ways; however, you are right. The standard seems to not use that portion of the URL. Thank you for offering that piece of clarification. :)
I would argue that if you don't know the youtube author's full name, you should call it a wash and cite the source according to the name of the channel.
Thank you! This video explained it perfectly and clearly, compared to a lot of other educational videos❕
Thank you! That is very kind of you.
Wow, UA-cam citation, MLA style. What a time to be alive!
I never thought I would need to know how to do this, but boy am I glad to have found your page!
Thank you!
@@StudywithDrF Thank you, I look forward to more of your material.

Thank you Dr. Foltz!
You're welcome!
Wouldn't the "Authors last name" also be the youtube channel name? I mean what if I'm quoting from a video from a channel without a last name?
Thank you for the question. According to MLA, in that case you would cite according to the "title" of the video. The entry would look something like this: "Title."

@@StudywithDrF Thankyou for the answer. I have put the full title of the video for the in text citation. Is it necessary to abbreviate it?
Honestly, I would abbreviate the title in the citation (not the entry) if it is a lengthy one or if it lends itself to an abbreviation. MLA has no true abbreviation rule for this situation.
holy shit i love you

I did not think that MLA format used the https: part of the URL.

Sir,
Is this according to MLA 9th edition?
Very helpful 👍
Glad to hear that - and thank you for sharing!
Dr. Foltz, I would not have known your first name unless you told me. So would I list the author of the video as Foltz, Dr. ?
I would argue that if you don't know the youtube author's full name, you should call it a wash and cite the source according to the name of the channel.
Thanks thats exactly what i needed
You're welcome! I am glad you found it helpful.
