Be aware of direct quotations. Paraphrase properly. What is common knowledge anyway? Where do I go for help if Im not sure?

    6. FAQ and answers from U of T Cant I just list everything in a bibliography? No! You need to acknowledge the author throughout. If I put it in my own words do I still have to cite it? Yes! It not only protects you, but demonstrates the interconnectedness of your work. But everything could be cited! Yes, but you can cut down the citation clutter by grouping things or by acknowledging some things that are common knowledge. How can I tell if its my idea or what has come from someone else? Keep careful records. Never cut and paste passages, summarize what you need and cite it. What do I have to document? Quotations, paraphrases, summaries, facts, and distinct ideas
