Webpage - General

It can often be difficult to identify the author of a web-page. If this is the case use the organisation (e.g. BBC) in place of the author. If a website has no discernible author or organisation you may want to strongly consider whether it is suitable for inclusion in a piece of academic writing. Again it is probably best to check with the person who will be assessing your work, if you find yourself in this situation.
