A question about references

Hello,

I'm new here at CC and I have a question regarding references. If I quote a statistic, and attribute credit within the article, does CC want a list of references at the end of the article?

How do you guys handle referencing to ensure appropriate attribution and credible sources?

Thanks,

Jonathan

I usually mention the source within the article and skip the reference list. If a requester wants a reference list, that would be the time to do it; otherwise, in-text attribution is usually enough (although that's not to say you can't add a reference list if you prefer that).
