Which of the following is correct MLA internal documentation?

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When evaluating MLA internal documentation, we look for an in-text citation that includes the author's last name and the page number, without a comma between them, and with parentheses around the entire citation.
Option a: "(Smith page 22)" uses the word 'page' and places the page number after the name, which is not the MLA standard format; MLA requires just the number, not the word 'page'.
Option b: "(Smith Wikipedia)." attempts to attribute to a source, but MLA in-text citations require a page number (or a location indicator) and the author’s last name, not a reference to a website in the citation body; also including the site name in this format is incorrect for internal documentation.
Option d: "(Smith 22)." correctly presents the author’s last name followed by a space and the page number inside parentheses, which matches MLA internal documentation conventions.
Option c: "(https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Italian_language)." embeds a full URL inside the parentheses, which is not how MLA in-text citations are formatted; URLs are typically included on the Works Cited entry, not within the parenthetical citation itself.
Overall, options that misuse the format—by adding words like 'page', omitting the page number, or including full URLs inside the parentheses—do not conform to MLA internal documentation conventions, whereas the form with author and page number (Smith 22) does align with MLA rules.
