FYI -- This document is part of our popular Web Seminar. As such, it is always a work in progress and we welcome helpful editorial suggestions. If Planeta.com can assist you, please consider making a financial donation or organizing a webinar.

MAKING CONTACT -- Email sent to Planeta may be published. If you don't want that to happen, just let us know. Requests for anonymity will be honored. (Email Tips)


Citing online documents is important for anyone conducting research and who needs to document where and when they found their sources. Provide the source of the document (the URL) and a date when the document was viewed.

Why? Many features are 'works-in-progress' so what you may read may look different at a later date. An example for quoting from material published on Planeta.com would look like this:

Mader, Ron. "Reflections from the World Bank," Planeta.com. http://www.planeta.com/ecotravel/tour/worldbank.html. January 2, 2007

When possible, email the author or publisher and request permission to cite the material. It's a good idea to provide either the excerpt or the wording of the citation as it will appear so that an author or web publisher can let you know if there is a more current version online.


TIP -- If you see an online document that requires corrections, send editorial suggestions to the author or web publisher.
