IV．Documentation and Bibliography

1. Basic concepts

1） Documentation:

Documentation refers to furnishing the paper with exact references to authoritative supporting information．All academic papers should be well documented to credit each and every source material that is borrowed or referred to in the text．

Documentation consists of two parts in different forms: in-text documentation and extra-text documentation；the former taking the form of in-text citation or in-text numbering，while the latter taking the form of notes and a bibliography attached to the text as integral parts．

2） In-text citation

In-text citation means quoting or mentioning in the text other source materials (put in parentheses) as evidence to the paper writer s ideas or arguments on certain issues．

3） In-text numbering

In-text numbering means referring to the source materials by superscript (Arabic) numerals arranged consecutively within the text, which are always supplemented by footnotes or endnotes．

4） Notes

Notes are brief comments or explanations or references giving evidence or support to the paper writer s arguments in the text．They may be classified into documentation notes

and content notes according to their meanings or functions，footnotes and endnotes according to their locations．

As mentioned above, notes may be pided into documentation notes and content notes according to their functions, or footnotes and endnotes according to their locations．Footnotes and endnotes are both used in the traditional style of documentation, but as endnotes are more manageable to the paper writer and less distracting to the reader，they are preferable to footnotes and are quite popular with university students in their academic research paper writing. Both footnotes and endnotes must match the numbering of in-text citations．

Notes provide the following items of information about the source materials,

and are put in the given order．

a. Name(s) of the author(s) (Given names precede family names for Western authors whereas family names precede given names for Chinese authors)；

b. Title of the cited article／poem／story／chapter／section of a book (in quotation marks)；

c. Title of the cited book／journal／periodical／magazine／newspaper (in italics if printed or underlined if handwritten／typed)；

d. Name(s) of the editor(s) (preceded by “ed.”)，translator(s) (preceded by “trans.”)，or compiler(s) (preceded by “comp.”);

e. Edition of the book；

f. Number of volumes of a book if all the volumes are cited；

g. Place of publication followed by a colon，name of the publisher followed by a comma, and date of publication (all together put in parentheses)；

h. Volume number if the reference is a multi-volume work；

i. Page number(s), with “page(s)” abbreviated to “p.”／ “pp. ” followed by a space and the number or the hyphenated numbers (e.g. pp. 10-20)
