Dear Editor,
I know I come up with doozies sometimes and I hope this one isn't as complicated as my last. :)
Let's say I'm writing a blog post for educational purposes. I want to teach someone how to access something on a webpage, and so I have taken screenshots of the relevant part of the webpage an added them to my post. In some cases I have further edited the picture with arrows or circles to make it clear what I am referring to. How do I cite this?
I have a blog and I would like to cite sources on it. While I understand that one would cite sources the same way as if it were a paper, I'm wondering what kinds of issues the change in medium creates. For example, if I provide a link to another website, do I need to cite the link, if I haven't used any information or quotes from that website in my blog post? Any searches I do for blog citations only shows me how to cite a blog, so more information on this topic would be appreciated.
Best,
Jennifer
I found some photographs of the church where my great-grandfather was baptized. The photographer has generously made them available through a Creative Commons license.
I'm struggling to write a citation that covers both photographs and webpages.
Here's what I have so far:
Dixon, David. "Emmanuel Church, The Parish Church of Newton-in-Makerfield." Geograph (https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3313940 : accessed 20 September 2019).
How would I cite a history from Daughters of Utah Pioneers museum and a history from International Society Daughters of Utah Pioneers using Evidence Explained Revised Third Edition?
They sent me copies of multiple histories they have on my ancestors that I am citing in my ICAPGen accredidation project.
I am having trouble coming up with an appropriate citation for the cover photograph and its description on the inside cover from a genealogy quarterly. I believe that I should be following the journal article print edition format, but am unsure since there is not necessarily an author or article title.
Hi,
At the website of the Danish National Archives, digitizations of some parish registers are now available in two versions. I am trying to figure out how to direct readers to the specific online record used by me without including overly long waypoints for every single citation.
Here is an example of a long reference note:
I realize this is slightly off topic, but thought I would go ahead and ask. EE has a whole chapter dedicated to Business & Institutional Records. But I always wondered how a researcher would even begin to get access to private banking or insurance records that are presumably still held by instructions?
This record has gone through a number of iterations all of which could have introduced errors. I want to be sure when I cite the marriage it that it is clear that this is three steps away from the original. I used EE 7.31 Typescripts of Registers as my guide.
The record can be found on Ancestry here: https://tinyurl.com/y49sfars
The beginning of the "book" can be found here: https://tinyurl.com/yywvzzlx
It appears that FamilySearch.org has a new format for books and I'm curious how to cite them. I have a particular item that is listed both in the catalog which includes a microfilm number but when I go to the digital format it takes me to the "Books" format and the "ID" number there is different from the microfilm number in the "Catalog" section. Here are the links to both the digital format in the Book section and the catalog section. How do I cite the one in the book section?
