常见错误

错误:

(McChesney, 2013) - using comma between author and year

正确:

(McChesney 2013) - use space, not comma

原因: Chicago author-date uses space between author and year in in-text citations.

错误:

Reference: McChesney, R. (2013). Digital Disconnect... New York: The New Press.

正确:

Reference: McChesney, Robert. 2013. Digital Disconnect... New York: The New Press.

原因: Use full first name. Year before title. No parentheses for year.

错误:

McChesney, Robert. 2013. digital disconnect. new york: the new press.

正确:

McChesney, Robert. 2013. Digital Disconnect. New York: The New Press.

原因: Use sentence case for title (capitalize first word and proper nouns). Capitalize place name and publisher.
