Citation and Access Checks
A reliable citation begins with the article record rather than a copied title alone. Confirm spelling, author order, issue details, page range or article number, DOI when present, and the URL used for access.
If an article has been corrected, retracted, or replaced by a documented version, the visible notice forms part of the scholarly record and should be considered when reading or citing the work.
- Verify volume, issue, year, and publication date.
- Open the article record before downloading or citing.
- Look for DOI, license, and version information.
- Follow visible correction or retraction notices.
