Citation examples

Web site

Sometimes Web sites don't have obvious authors. The Creative Commons page on the CC licenses^{[citation needed]} is an example of this.

Video posted online

A video that was assigned for class was CGP Grey's "Copyright: Forever Less One Day".^{[citation needed]} However, it would probably be more appropriate to use the {{cite web}} template to refer to this source.^{[citation needed]}

News sources

The Sacco article we read^{[citation needed]} is an example of a newspaper article (even though it was published online). The Abdelmahmoud article<ref>^{[citation needed]} is also a news item, although in that case the media is entirely online.

Journal articles vs. news

DiFranzo and Gloria-Garcia's article on filter bubbles^{[citation needed]} is an example of an article in a professional journal. Buell's column on the risks of online voting^{[citation needed]} isn't really a journal article, even though it was published by a professional organization (the Association for Computing Machinery), because it was published on a blog rather than in a proper journal.

Books

The CSC 201 textbook, John Zelle's Python Programming: An Introduction to Computer Science^{[citation needed]}, is a paper book with its own Web page. The CSC 202 textbook, Problem Solving with Algorithms and Data Structures using Python by Bradley Miller and David Ranum^{[citation needed]} exists (in that edition) only online, which is why it has no ISBN (at least as far as I know). (It also has two authors.) Dorothy L. Sayers' Are Women Human? Penetrating, Sensible, and Witty Essays on the Role of Women in Society^{[citation needed]} has an ISBN, but no Web presence.
