Sample Citations - Comments

Comment on an online periodical article or blog post

  • Credit the person who left the comment as the author using the format that appears with the comment (i.e., real name or a username).
  • Provide the comment title or up to the first 20 words of the comment; then write "Comment on the article" and title of the article on which the comment appeared (in quotation marks and sentence case, enclosed within square brackets).
  • Link to the comment itself if possible (see Sections 9.33-9.24).
  • Because the comment URL was long and complex, it has been shortened (see Section 9.36). Either the long or the short form of the URL is acceptable.
