[@christycda]

I appreciate how easy to understand this video is. I was going to share it with my students, but I didn't because of an oversight. When you show the in-text citation, you have the author's name in the signal phrase and also in the citation. If the author's name is in the sentence, the citation should not repeat the author's name. You might have intended to go over that but maybe forgot.

[@rwc]

Thank you for watching the video and taking the time to write. My understanding is that while you don't have to repeat the author's name in attribution and the citation, it isn't a problem if you do repeat it. In my experience, the exceptions may be more confusing to students rather than the rule, so I focus more on how to do it rather than the situations where they can do something different, like repeating attribution. I also always encourage students to listen to their classroom teachers as well. Thanks for your concern!

[@Mignificento]

what about your signal phrase? does the title of an article on a website, or pdf file need to also be italicized?

[@rwc]

+Mignificento Good question. It depends. An article on a website would be in quotations because it’s part of a larger work (the website). A PDF file, if it is a stand alone work would be italicized.

[@erinhoyer9541]

if I have multiple sentences in a row that use info from a website do I have to put a citation at the end of each sentence or can I just put it once?

If I were your teacher, I would say cite in every sentence, but many teachers don’t feel citing that often is necessary. I’d ask your teacher what they want.

For in-text citations, most of the time, there arent page numbers so I do (Last name of author, year for source). If you have multiple authors, do you do "Last name of first author et al, year of sourse)?

[@rwc]

MLA doesn’t do years like that. APA does. You can substitute paragraph numbers or line numbers for page numbers. Multiple authors are listed by their last names in the order they were listed by the source. Does that make sense?
