常见问题

Which citation style should I use?

Use whatever your professor or journal requires. APA is standard in social sciences, MLA in humanities, Chicago in history, IEEE in engineering, and Vancouver in medical sciences. When in doubt, ask your instructor.

How accurate is the formatting?

The AI follows the latest edition of each style guide. However, always verify against your institution's specific requirements — some universities have local variations of standard styles.

Can I format multiple sources at once?

Yes. Paste multiple sources separated by blank lines and select the number of sources. The AI will format each one and present them in proper reference list order.

What if I'm missing some source information?

The AI will format what you have and flag missing required fields. It also suggests where to find the missing information (publisher website, Google Scholar, library database).

Does this handle online sources and websites?

Yes. Select 'Website / Online Source' as the source type. The AI will include proper URL formatting, access dates, and handle sources with no author or date according to each style's rules.
