Introduction to
Referencing
1. When do you need to reference?
You must reference any information, arguments, or
ideas that you use in your assignments which are not
your own and which are not common knowledge. How do I know if something is ‘common
knowledge’?
Even if you've re-written content into your own This is difficult to describe, but the
words, you still need to include references! simplest way to think about it is ‘would a

part of being a member of a scholarly community like
the University.

Referencing includes both in-text references placed

throughout your writing and a reference list at the
end of your work which includes every source you
have cited listed in alphabetical order.

1.1 Placement of in-text references For example:

In-text references must be placed within a sentence. While some have argued that

form of identity (Appiah, 2006),
There are two ways of formatting in-text references: others have argued that it is a 'noble

(Author, Date)
This format is used to indicate the source of the For example:

immediately after the idea or information that However, a more recent study by

source in a sentence, each reference should be
placed after the idea or information you have
used.

Author (Date)
This format is used to emphasise the author,
and not just their ideas. It is often used when
comparing studies or information from different
sources. Usually, the author’s name is near the
beginning of a sentence.

1.2 Summarising a source For example:

When you summarise a source, the in-text reference Ball (1995) critiques the idea that

1.3 Paraphrasing a source For example:

(Ervin et al., 2018, p. 470).

1.5 Block quotations (40 words or more)

When your quotation from a source is longer than 40 For example:

Try not to rely on block quotes, especially in short
essays. It is better to summarise and discuss content
in your own words.

1.6 Secondary references (source within a For example:

1.7 Multiple authors For example:

When a source has multiple authors, use the order of References:

1.17 Traditional Knowledge or Oral

Traditions of Indigenous Peoples
It is important to ensure that information about
Indigenous peoples and cultures is accurate and
appropriate to be used as a source. This involves
carefully considering that your work maintains
the integrity and cultural values inherent to such
knowledge.

You should work closely with Indigenous peoples

to determine whether materials are appropriate
for publication or use in your work. This will also
help you write in a way that preserves heritage and
accurately reflects the significance and value of a
source. Always capitalise terms related to Indigenous
people as a sign of respect.

Where information has been recorded, you should

use the appriopriate format for that source type from
the tables in this guide.

When citing knowledge that is not recorded, include

as much information as possible in-text. A reference
list entry is not required for this type of source.

1.18 When to include database For example:

information References:
There are only a limited number of situations when Euromonitor International. (2021,
you need to include database information in your January). Luxury goods in China.
reference list entries: Passport. http://www.portal.
euromonitor.com
When the item can only be accessed from that
database (for example, company or industry reports Statista. (2020). Social media use in
from databases that produce their own research Australia. http://www.statista.com
such as Passport).

When the name of the database is different to the

name of the author/publishing organisation.

If an item is sourced from a major academic database

such as ProQuest or EBSCO, you don't need to
include the database name.

1.19 Formatting your reference list For example:

Your reference list should be set on a new page at
the end of your document. References:

Academic Journal Articles

A journal article is a scholarly piece of research that has been published in an
academic journal. Often, this means they have been peer-reviewed by other
experts in the field. Some journal articles summarise existing academic research
on a topic (secondary research), whereas others share the findings of new
research projects and studies (primary research).

News Sources
Newspapers and Magazines
Newspapers can exist either in hard copy format, or online. Newspapers can be
a good source of information about current events and public perception. Keep
in mind that newspapers may have a bias towards a particularly political or social
viewpoint, and news may be sensationalised to attract attention.
