LibGuides: APA: Web Page with No Author

APA Web Page No Author

References:

Use this format if you have a web page with no named person as the author. If the information is produced and published by an agency, use the web page with organization as an author format.

If there is no date with the article you are using, DO NOT use the copyright year at the bottom of the page. That applies to the whole website and is not necessarily the date your information was written. See the tab for a web page with no date for directions.

Article titles will go first when there is no author. Titles are written sentence style, which means you capitalize like you are writing a sentence. Capitalize the first word and any proper nouns in the title. They are also italicized.
Include the name of the website, capitalized the formal way (like a movie, book, or show is capitalized). Only include the website name, don't include .com/.edu/.org.
Always include the link that takes you straight to the page/article you are using.
- If you use multiple pages/articles on one site (they will have different links) you need to cite them separately. Each one will have its own line on your reference page and will have its own in-text citation.
Note where periods or commas separate pieces of information. There is no period after the webpage link.
*We can't do a hanging indent on this page but be sure to include it in your final version.

Article title (italicized & capitalized sentence style). (Date). Website Name. URL link to article/page

Why we are so obsessed with personality types? (2019, November 16). Medium. https://medium.com/the-business-of-wellness/why-we-are-so-obsessed-with-personality-types-577450f9aee9

In-Text Citation:

Since the in-text citation always has information from the first two pieces of your reference, this will use the title and date. BUT, we will change how the title is formatted. It will not be italicized, it will be "in quotes" and if it's a long title, we will shorten it to a few words.

("Why are we," 2019)
