Thank you but the date is always:- day, month and year. 6 November 2020 hope everyone sees this

[@safejewel2072]

thanks, nearly missed that

[@afhickman]

It's easy to be a Monday morning quarterback, but consider the following: Have you checked that box that says "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style"? It doesn't look like it on your Works Cited page. You've indented your block quotation a full inch. It should only be indented 1/2 inch. Also, MLA calls for European style dating: 10 Oct. 2021, not October 10, 2021. Minor things, but part of the form.

[@peakdavid]

Good catch.

I don't have microsoft word nor the ability to access it for my class, what would you recommend I do to get more familiar with MLA? I have already tried reading through Purdue University's writing labs and have found them to be obtuse and unhelpful.

Watch this and let me know if you have any questions--kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4Soq2imdqmKgdE

[@bessidhoummahfoudh3757]

I have 02 questions please: 1- Can tables be single-spaced (content) and flush left if they are big? 2- How do statistical tables (e.g., significance) be written? Thank you

[@peakdavid]

The answer to both questions is found in the style guide you are expected to follow in your class. APA, MLA, Chicago and the rest provide different guidelines to formatting tables. As your prof which one you should follow.
