Citations
Citations document the source of statistics, quotations, facts, and ideas that you use in your paper but have gotten from other sources. In ANY academic writing, you must acknowledge and cite your sources. Just to make things more difficult, there are different citation styles for different academic disciplines.

The full description of your source should come at the end of the paper in a list of references or a bibliography. A full description of a source will include:
    the authors name(s),
    the title of the work (or web page) cited,
    the title of the journal, book, or name of the website (not the web address!) that the work is part of (if the work is an article, chapter of a book, or page on a website),
(NOTE: The three items above should ALWAYS come first)
    the volume/issue number of the journal (if appropriate)
    the location and name of the publisher (for books)
    the year the work was published (in the case of web pages, look for day/month/year creation date)
    the URL (the address of the specific web page you are citing)
    the page number (for specific quotes)
    the date you accessed the web page

For some sources you wont be able to find all this information, but you should be suspicious of sources that are difficult to cite!
