Formerly pretty good free resource for academic citations now turned into a giant pile of steamy hot garbage by the incredible asswipes at Chegg, a corporate name that mostly calls forth the image of a debilitating sexually transmitted infection.
Recommend using instead: https://www.scribbr.com/citation/generator. At least until they also start demanding your firstborn daughter for each citation.
“I never called her back because she gave me a raging case of the cheggs! I still can pee straight, and that it three months ago!”
There’s like 50 of these. If one enshittifies, jump to another.
Though if I was in academia, I wouldn’t mind paying a couple bucks for a high quality one
I’m in academia and I can report that still nobody uses those.
For your own archiving, just use Zotero.
For writing papers, use bibtex.
All those citing websites are just scams for high school/undergrad students trying to find their footing. There is no reason they should exist.
Pro tip: use zotero. Its an open-source bibliography program, you can export the entire bibliography at once in whatever format you want.
Such a godsend! Especially the auto detection features. Just drop the PDF into it and it finds everything needed for a correction citation. I wish website citations would be better tho
