Citation
All academic writing requires you to cite all the
sources that you have read and consulted in the preparation of your work.
Citation, also known as referencing, consists of quoting from or referring to
other writers’ words and thoughts and the listing of their names, together with
the titles and other details of their publications so that these can be tracked
down independently. Citation has long been regarded as a hallmark of academic
writing of all kinds.
