Use of ibid., id., op.cit.

Ibid. (in the same place) refers to a single work in the immediately preceding note.

Ibid. should not be used if the previous note contains more than one reference. Ibid. takes the place of the name of the author, the title of the work and all that is identical and can therefore be used to repeat integrally the previous note. Ibid. is never used with the author’s name or the work’s title.

Id. (the same) can be used in place of the name of the same author in successive and different references within the same note. Id. Should not be used to replace work titles.

Op. cit. (in the cited work) and art. cited (in the cited article) are used with the initial capital of the first name and last name of the author (in the form P. Last name) and replaces the title of a work cited beforehand. Make sure that op. cit. and art. cit do refer to a work, and one only.

Style sheet

Highlight titles, subtitles, quotes without using a style sheet (eg No title 1, 2, quote, etc.).

Indicate line breaks when necessary.
