Web pages with individual author

Format for reference list

Elements, punctuation & capitalisation

Author, A. (Date). Title of page. Website name. URL

Style notes for this reference type

• APA 7 Publication Manual, p.350, examples 110–114.
• Use the webpage and website category if there is no other reference category that fits.
• Because not all internet sources have title and copyright pages, the elements can be difficult to find. In general, include the same elements, in the same order, as would be needed for a reference to a fixed-media source, and add as much electronic retrieval information as needed for others to locate the sources you cited.
• When the authors and site name are the same, omit the site name from the source element.
• The abbreviation (n.d.) is used in the date position if no publication date is available.
• Use the home page URL rather than more specific addresses which may have changed, except when citing articles from sites such as media sites or government agencies, in which specific articles may be hard to locate.
• The date when an electronic resource was retrieved is only needed if the content being cited is likely to be changed or updated. Provide the [Retrieved Month Day, year, from] statement before the URL.
• Specific formats can be included in brackets immediately after the title, e.g., [Lecture notes] or [Video webcast].
