In the process of writing a term paper or thesis, essay, report, you often have to deal with the need to provide links to any material used as a source of information. Therefore, you need to know how to properly format links.
If the text refers to the serial number of a table, illustration or chapter from the same work, such a link is indicated without the "No." icon, marked "Fig.", "Tab.", "Page" or "ch."
Referring in the text to a separate section of the work, the section number is enclosed in parentheses. Subscripts, which are also often referred to as footnotes, in most cases are indicative of citation sources, or contain a detailed, extended explanation of the phrase or quote used in the text. Subscripts are usually printed in Arabic numerals without parentheses from indentation, with the link number being placed above the line text. An explanation is printed at the bottom of the page, while it must be separated from the main text by a short solid line. Subscripts should be numbered separately within each page, in sequential order. Moving to the next page, the numbering of links in the text again begins with the first.
Making links that are trailing (decoding of such links is not on each page, but at the very end of the work) can be done in much the same way as page-by-page links, with the only difference being that the numbering of such links does not break with each new page. The number of the end link should be indicated in brackets, placing it immediately after the quote from the direct source of information. If you have to specify more than one source in a row, the reference numbers in this case should be divided using a semicolon. And in-text links should not be avoided - they greatly facilitate the process of typing and formatting text, and also save space.
