Creating In-Text Citation Styles
In-text citations are also known as author-date styles or as Harvard styles. The APA style is the best-known style of this type.
Some in-text citation styles use a shortened form of the author-date style. These styles shorten the first letters of the authors' last names and use a two-digit. For example, in a typical author-date style the citation might look like this: (Doe, Miller, Wang 2013, p. 14). The styles using the shortened form might look like this [DMW13:14].
