4 Website Article with One to Three Authors Sometimes, an author is a specifically named person. However, sometimes an author is an association, business, education, or government agency. If it is clear that a group is responsible for the information, just use that group's name as the author of the source. Last Name, First Name Middle Initial of Author. “Title of Article.” Title of Website. Version or edition (if present). Publisher or sponsor (if not available, use N.p. for “No publisher”), Date of publication (if not available, use n.d. for “no date”). Web. Date you found article.

5 Website Article with Four or More Authors When an article has four or more authors, we use a shorthand code called “et al.” to represent the names of the rest of the authors. The words “et al.” are Latin for “and others.” First, find the name of the first author listed on the original article. Next, list the source alphabetically by that author’s last name. Finally, add the words “et al.” following the author’s name. Last Name, First Name Middle Initial of First Listed Author, et al. “Title of Article.” Title of Website. Version or edition (if present). Publisher or sponsor (if not available, use N.p. for “No publisher”), Date of publication (if not available, use n.d. for “no date”). Web. Date you found article. Bachman, David L., et al. “Alzheimer's Disease in a General Population.” Women’s Health Center. 2009 edition. International Health Practitioners, 19 Mar. 2007. Web. 28 July 2007.
