Peer review
• Every recognized journal and publisher that
publishes research literature, utilize «peer
review» of manuscripts before publishing.
• Performed by other scientists – usually two.
The peers recommends whether or not the
manuscript should be published, and
suggests needed changes to uphold a high
research standard. (Obtained from Astrid Andersons course on accetable
use of sources for master students in social anthropology)

What about Wikipedia?

Interview with Jimmy Wales, founder of
Wikipedia:
"You don't cite Wikipedia as a source.
It's where you go to get started," he
said.
He explained that students need to follow
the links in Wikipedia to check the
original sources, as this will help them to
understand how knowledge is created in
society.

Cheater - me?
• Many cheat without knowingly doing so
• Not to reference your sources is the same
as taking credit for someone else’s work. This
is called plagiarism, and is considered
cheating
• As a student, you are obligated to learn the
rules for academic writing and citation

From the faculty of Social Sciences on
sources and referring:
«The purpose of the source reference is to make it as easy as possible for the reader to find the source you have used. It is essential for academic work that the reader can check that you have coverage for what you say.»
«It is important that you are consistent and use only one style in your text.»
«If there is no recommended style on a subject, we want you to use the APA style.»
