Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    I'm in the middle of a literature review at the moment and I'm unsure of one thing.

    If I'm referencing articles, do I also have to reference the authors that were referenced within the article or just the author of the artice?

    Cheers :o

    I think that if you are just making reference to the general article, then you reference the author. However if you are specifically mentioning the work of the other authors, then they need to be referenced. How you do this depends on the type of referencing, eg Harvard, APA or footnotes.

    Hope this helps?
