If you use the "Cite" feature, compare your citation carefully to the example shown and change as necessary. Look at the information provided with the article itself to find anything that is missing, such as complete date information.
You will also need to:
Check spacing and font. Citations may not paste with the correct font. Spacing between words and/or line spacing may not be correct.

Look for the publisher(s) at the bottom of the webpage (often beside a copyright symbol), or on the “About Us” page on the site.
If the publisher of your website is essentially the same as the name of the website, you do not need to include it (e.g., the Fox News site is published by Fox News Network, so no need to include this publisher).
If you cannot find a publisher listed on the site, it is likely the same as the website name, so skip it and move on to the date of publication.
If more than one publisher appears to share equal responsibility for the site, include all publisher names separated by a forward slash: U of Nebraska / AGBIOS.
