General Rules

General order for most publications:
Lastname, Firstinitials, Firstinitials Lastname, and Firstinitials Lastname. "Title of Article," Journal Name, 5(8), Anywhere, N.C., 12-13 January 1990, 235-242.

Where 5(8) are volume and issue number, and 235-242 are page numbers.

• Use initials for first and middle names. Do the same for editor names.
• If the name has two initials, use one space after the periods. If the name has three initials, do not use spaces after the periods (e.g., A. R. Smith, C.D.R. Bowen).
• If only two authors are listed, separate their names with a comma and with "and" (e.g., Smith, J. B., and S. F. Weiss). If three or more authors are listed, separate their names with commas, and use "and" before the last author (e.g., Fuchs, H., J. Poulton, and J. G. Eyles.)
• Put the title of an article in quotes. Put the title of a journal or book in italics.
• Use special (curling) quote marks everywhere. Use special single quote only with year or with conference year (e.g., SIGGRAPH '91; Fall '91).
• Use an em-dash, instead of --
• Use an en-dash between dates, between a university name and its city (e.g., UNC-Chapel Hill), between page numbers, and ranges of dates (e.g., 13-17 March).
• Use the Associated Press Stylebook and Libel Manual's abbreviations for states:
  Ala., Alaska, Ariz., Ark., Calif., Colo., Conn., D.C., Del., Fla., Ga., Hawaii, Idaho, Ill., Ind., Iowa, Kan., Ky., La., Maine, Md., Mass., Mich., Minn., Miss., Mo., Mont., Neb., Nev., N.H., N.J., N.M., N.Y., N.C., N.D., Ohio, Okla., Ore., Pa., R.I., S.C., S.D., Tenn., Texas, Utah, Vt., Va., Wash., W.Va., Wis., Wyo.
• If the author is referring to an entire book that he or she has written, try to list the number of pages that the book contains. (e.g., 265 pp.)
