-
For a page on a government website without individual authors, use the specific agency responsible for the webpage as the author.
-
The names of parent agencies not present in the author element appear in the source element (in the example, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, National Institutes of Health). This creates concise in-text citations and complete reference list entries.
-
Provide as specific a date as possible for the webpage.
-
Some online works note when the work was last updated. If this date is clearly attributable to the specific content you are citing rather than the overall website, use the updated date in the reference.
-
Do not include a date of last review in a reference because content that has been reviewed has not necessarily been changed. If a date of last review is noted on a work, ignore it for the purposes of the reference.
-
Italicize the title of the webpage.
-
End the reference with the URL.
