Plagiarism is the unattributed use of someone else's words or ideas. Academic institutions treat it as a serious integrity violation, yet many cases stem from ignorance of citation rules rather than deliberate misconduct.
APA 7th (2020) brought key updates: up to 20 authors listed (vs. 6 + et al. in APA 6th), DOI formatted as a hyperlink, removal of publisher location, and "Running head" no longer required for student papers. Always confirm which edition your institution requires.
APA 7th/6th — social sciences, psychology, education. MLA — humanities, literature. Harvard — UK universities, business. Chicago — history, some humanities. IEEE — engineering, computer science.
Privacy note: This tool runs entirely in your browser. No data is transmitted to any server. Confirm by opening DevTools → Network tab while generating citations.
Use the tag input to add each author individually — the formatter handles commas, ampersands, and "et al." automatically per style. For APA 7th with 21+ authors, the ellipsis rule is applied automatically.
