In most cases it should be placed after references page if you are talking abouta documented research like a project or a thesis, but if you mean a research paper to be presented in a conference or published in a journal then having the appendix material in the text body is the way it should go.

According to MLA guidlines, you must include all sources of quoted or cited material in your works cited page.\n\n"For MLA papers, the list of sources from which you have cited information is called the Works Cited. (Other documentation styles differ from MLA in how they arrange and name their reference lists.)\n\n"When you are ready to produce your final draft, eliminate from your working bibliography the cards for the items you have not cited.  Arrange the remaining cards in alphabetical order by authors' last names.  If you do not use cards, number your list or have the computer sort it alphabetically.  You are now ready to prepare the list of works cited that will conclude your paper.  As you make your final revisions, check your citations against this list to ensure that they are complete and correct."

You just skip that part of the citation and go on. I was really confused about that, too when I just started writing papers.   A really good site to help with citations is www.citationmachine.net

When writing a book there's no rule that you have to start at the beginning of anything - your life *or* the book.  If you want, start at the place you find most interesting and go from there.  You can fill in "the beginning" later.  I wrote a book (just for myself) last November and didn't write it in order at all.  I wrote the middle chapters first, but all out of sequence, then wrote the end, and finally finished with the introduction.  Then I edited it to put it all together in "order".  There is no right way to do it.

depending on your topic, for any paper you will want to use the classic INTRO/BODY/CONCLUSION... but this expanded version has helped me as I have written papers in college and masters work:\n\nI. Intro your topic. Finish with the 3-5 points of your body (in other words introduce your body's outline)\nII. Body\n  A. Interesting fact #1 + Illustration, research practical applications, etc.\n\n  B. Interesting fact #2 + Illustration, research practical applications, statistics, etc.\n\n  C. Interesting fact #3 + Illustration, research practical applications, etc.\n\nIII. Conclusion (Know where/how to land the paper! ususally you do this first)\n\nSometimes you finish with the final question answered, thought finished, application you liked the most, etc. If you need more help, just respond back...\n\n\nHope this helps...

You've never written an essay before and you're at the university? That seems strange. Anyway...In your introduction, you should briefly mention the three articles you are comparing and contrasting. Then, as you discuss each in the body paragraphs you can just refer to each article by the author's last name. For example, you could say, "The Smith article says that...." etc. It wouldn't hurt to add a brief appendix at the end.

You can write a bibilography which is a comprehensive list of bibliography. You should outline:\n\n* author;\n* subject or title of book;\n* country or state; \n* published in a specified period \n* mentioned in, or relevant to, a particular work.\n\nA bibliography of this type, sometimes called a reference list should normally appear at the end of any paper in scientific literature. There is also an analytical biography which subdivides books into descriptive, historical or textual.\n\nThe purpose of the bibliography defines its format. Different academic fields have their own requirements. According to the Nuts and Bolts of College Writing, the four most common format styles are those of the Modern Language Association of America (MLA), the American Psychological Association (APA), the Chicago Manual of Style, and the Council of Science Editors, formerly known as the Council of Biology Editors (CBE) and still referred to as CBE style. \n\nThe MLA style is most common in the fields of literature, foreign languages, and other humanities subjects. In research papers that conform to the MLA style, the bibliography is a list of works cited and contains information such as the author, title, and date of publication for the sources used to write the paper.

For a long citation you should indent it from your regular text.  Long citations are always double spaced either style.

This Chapter deals only with simple and common examples on how to write Footnote and Endnote citations. To view examples, see Chapter 8. First Footnotes and Endnotes - Examples in MLA Style as well as Footnotes - Sample Page and Endnotes - Sample Page. \n\nFootnotes and Endnotes are used to give credit to sources of any material borrowed, summarized or paraphrased. They are intended to refer readers to the exact pages of the works listed in the Works Cited, References, or Bibliography section. \n\nThe main difference between Footnotes and Endnotes is that Footnotes are placed numerically at the foot of the very same page where direct references are made, while Endnotes are placed numerically at the end of the essay on a separate page entitled Endnotes or Notes.\n\nIf you are still using a typewriter, a superscript number is typed half a space above the line after the last word of the citation, e.g., "The Information Superhighway is giving way to a Commercial Superhighway."1 If you are using a word processor, you can access the superscript function. To type a Footnote citation, the same superscript number is put at the beginning of the Footnote at the bottom of the same page where the citation occurs. \n\nWhen mentioning a work for the first time, a full and complete Footnote or Endnote entry must be made.\n\nNOTE: Only one sentence is used in a Footnote or Endnote citation, i.e., only one period or full stop is used at the end of any Footnote or Endnote citation. In a Bibliography, each citation consists of a minimum of three statements or sentences, hence each entry requires a minimum of three periods, e.g., a period after the author statement, a period after the title statement, and a period after the publication statement (publication/publisher/publication date).

Unless required by a professor or teacher, an Appendix is not required for a report. \nThe appendix can be graphs, a glossary, charts or other information that you reference in a report but cannot include in the body of a report b/c either it's not completely relevant to do so, it's too long/big or will detract from the point of your report.

well, generally, it depends on the type of work you are citing; sorry, don't mean to confuse you. Try out the link below - it's usually pretty good at putting things into proper citation format for you.

rogerian arguement?.. well\nwhat i do know is that the thesis is usually the last sentence of your introduction paragraph and in the conclusion, your first sentence is usually the restating of the thesis. \nbody paragraphs are supporting your thesis by using examples, elaboration and evidence- strong support. \nalso in your conclusion- make sure you have a so what-- somthing that connects back out to the reader of the paper.

The appendix in the body serves no purpose.\n\nThe appendix in a book can be very useful.

from what ive used and learned at school, end notes are often a way to cite material and make certain distinctions you dont have time to delve into in your paper itself. Typically you are putting bibliographical information, depending on the citation system you are using, along with the occasion elaboration on material if you desire to. The end notes work as you would think, you put them after the end of your paper as sort of Works Cited pages. If you know what footnotes are, its that but instead of the bottom of the page they are placed at the end.\n\ndrawback of endnotes, you always have to flip back and forth to view the citations, not always an efficent way to study a material.

We were always told to put the citation after the last sentence from that source, as long as all the sentences are in one paragraph. If you start a new paragraph in the middle of the sentences then use two citations.
