APA formatting is a very useful, organized way to keep essays in tact. Citing a source means to gather up information to add in an essay that was either not known knowledge or words taken from someone else after it has been added to the essay you have to "cite" the source meaning get the information about the stuff you used from whereyou got the information from like a title, author, date of publication, and page number. If the writer is using the text of another website it might be too long and it won’t sound right if it uses the exact same words.Causing the writer to have to paraphrase the sentence. A reference page is the page where all references are listed alphabetically with all the information necessary. I will use the APA format in my essay, and it will be very useful to readers,to know ehere i got the information from and so i won't be taking other peoples work.
