Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author
Orrit, Michel. 2002. “Single Molecules. Molecular Entanglements.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 298 (5592): 369–370.
A journal article with 2 authors
Wang, K., and E. I. Stiefel. 2001. “Toward Separation and Purification of Olefins Using Dithiolene Complexes: An Electrochemical Approach.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 291 (5501): 106–109.
A journal article with 3 authors
Han, Chunyang, Hui Ding, and Fangxing Lv. 2014. “Demonstration of a Refractometric Sensor Based on an Optical Micro-Fiber Three-Beam Interferometer.” Scientific Reports 4 (December): 7504.
A journal article with 11 or more authors
Koshiba, Takumi, Scott A. Detmer, Jens T. Kaiser, Hsiuchen Chen, J. Michael McCaffery, and David C. Chan. 2004. “Structural Basis of Mitochondrial Tethering by Mitofusin Complexes.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 305 (5685): 858–862.

Blog post

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report
Government Accountability Office. 2011. Space Research: Content and Coordination of Space Science and Technology Strategy Need to Be More Robust. GAO-11-722. Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office.

Theses and dissertations

Theses including Ph.D. dissertations, Master's theses or Bachelor theses follow the basic format outlined below.

Doctoral dissertation

New York Times article
Oestreich, James R. 2017. “A Divine Crucifixion, With Lingerie.” New York Times, June 26.
