if i cite a source early in the essay in page 1 or 2, do i have to continue sorting it technically throughout the essay still?
plus, do research essays typically have sources for every sentence?
plus,(lol), my references are TONS, like more than a page of sources.. wtf. i can understand 5-10 but im pushing close to 10 now, is that normal? |
you do need to continuously cite the source, but you can shorten it after the first in-text citation [e.g. (Author, 2019.) can just be written as (Author.) unless you're directly quoting a text in which case you would want to include page numbers].
