Hi, my article "All Exercise Routines Must Change" was rejected for two reasons: a misused semicolon and the presence of website addresses.
I see how a colon was probably better suited than semicolon, but my citation seems to be appropriate per the following statements:
"If you must, remove the “http://www” in front of the address, even if you use websites for references."

And the discussion here: http://www.constant-content.com/forum/v ... ites#p7524
I cited the websites in MLA format without the http://www and did not make them links. They support health related statements that I made, so I think they need to be included. Sources include Mayo Clinic website and Georgia State University website.
Thanks.

Re: Need Clarification on Citing Websites as Sources
If your article was rejected for including links, then your references were preceded by the http://www, which was the reason for this rejection. It may be possible you didn't save the file or uploaded the incorrect file. Please try again.
