Hi, I'm new so please bear with me. I would like to know how should I make references in my articles. Do I put them at the last part of the article as a "Reference Section" in a text capsule? Thanks.
It’s up to you what you do, but I follow the plan that you’ve described. Personally, I don’t like to see links scattered through an article. They disrupt my reading. Another problem with links within the article is that a reader may click on one of them and leave the article before they’ve finished reading it.
I place them at the end of the article using the link capsule and title it "References" or "Sources" — something like that. I do that because I update my article and find new studies or reports relating to my article. Then, I add them as new links. In the long run, it is easier to add them at the end of the article.

In the past for my articles I've used regular hyperlinks to sources for information referenced. But because these can change or disappear, creating broken links (typically with no other reference citation), just to cite sources of information I've started using endnotes instead, with the links in...

I'm pretty new to HubPages (joined 6 weeks ago but got "busy" about 2 weeks ago posting Hubs) -- I got spanked last week and had a hub taken down temporarily for citing direct links to the particular information relating to multiple parties (all of which linked to SEC.gov, but different...

I noticed what appears to be an automatically generated link in one of my Pethelpful articles. I didn't add it, and I can't get rid of it. I can't even see it in edit mode. Even if I delete the word, it just adds a new link at the next instance of that word.It links out to another Pethelful article...
