how do i convert the website source into a reference. so i just copy and paste the site page. please, ive been trying to figure it out and it doesnt work.
1. find what you can of an author - hopefully a person's name. if not a person, a department. if not a department, an institution. 2. use that name in-line as the author - as you would any other author 3. on reference page, use that name as the author name, last name first, in the list. (date) or (n.d.) for no date. then the title - whatever title you can find. then the organization or institution as the publisher. and you need the URL and the "retrieved on ..." I'll look for the link.
