Notes

Websites are rarely designed for academic or referencing purposes

If there is no designated author, cite the website owner/sponsor in place of the author

If no date is given in the source, use n.d. and if no page numbers are given in the source, use n.p.

Retain source spelling for corporate author.

Same website - different web pages

Each web page with a different URL requires its own reference. If the author and year are the same, differentiate citations in text and in the reference list by attaching lower case a, b, etc. to the year (no space after year).

Beyond Blue (2016a) states that knowing your emotions and what to do about them is vital.	Beyond Blue (2016a, n.p.) maintains that ‘it's important to find out what's going on and what you can do about it’.
Mental health exists as a continuum from good health to mental illness (Beyond Blue 2016b).	‘Mental health is at one end of the spectrum – represented by feeling good and functioning well – while mental health conditions (or mental illness) are at the other – represented by symptoms that affect people’s thoughts, feelings or behaviour’ (Beyond Blue 2016b, n.p.).

Reference list

Establish the order based on alphabetical order of the title (not according to the order they appear in the text), disregarding ‘a’, ‘an’ or ‘the’ beginning the title. Attach a lower case letter of the alphabet to the publication year. Retain this order of citations in text (i.e. even if, for example, information from 2016b appears before information from 2016a).
