Can't insert citations? References all messed up: How to add citations correctly
The core reason why citations often fail to fit and references become increasingly messy during revisions is the inability to properly insert them when writing a paper. This article explains the role of citations in a paper, lists the most common citation insertion locations (which sentences must be cited, and which can be omitted), and provides an actionable citation workflow to help you logically determine when citations are needed, how to maintain consistent APA/MLA style, and how to reduce reference errors. It also explains how DiffMind helps reduce rework rates in the three steps of "citation location determination—style consistency—reference error correction."
