  2. Format the citation locally with the selected template.

Local formatting only

This tool formats the details you enter into a plain-text citation draft. It does not search for sources, invent missing facts, or verify a citation style.

Missing details stay missing

Optional fields are omitted when blank. Review names, dates, titles, and URLs before using the draft.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions

Does it find or verify sources?

Does it create APA or MLA citations?
