How to format your references using the Turkish Studies citation style

This is a short guide how to format citations and the bibliography in a manuscript for Turkish Studies. For a complete guide how to prepare your manuscript refer to the journal's instructions to authors.

Using reference management software

Typically you don't format your citations and bibliography by hand. The easiest way is to use a reference manager:

Paperpile	The citation style is built in and you can choose it in Settings > Citation Style or Paperpile > Citation Style in Google Docs.
EndNote	Download the output style file
Mendeley, Zotero, Papers, and others	The style is either built in or you can download a CSL file that is supported by most references management programs.
BibTeX	BibTeX syles are usually part of a LaTeX template. Check the instructions to authors if the publisher offers a LaTeX template for this journal.

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

Goto, Hayato. “Step-by-Step Magic State Encoding for Efficient Fault-Tolerant Quantum Computation.” Scientific Reports 4 (December 16, 2014): 7501.

A journal article with 2 authors

Raymo, Maureen E., and Peter Huybers. “Unlocking the Mysteries of the Ice Ages.” Nature 451, no. 7176 (January 17, 2008): 284–85.

A journal article with 3 authors

Sia, G. M., R. L. Clem, and R. L. Huganir. “The Human Language-Associated Gene SRPX2 Regulates Synapse Formation and Vocalization in Mice.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 342, no. 6161 (November 22, 2013): 987–91.

A journal article with 11 or more authors

Schwartz, Carl E., Christopher I. Wright, Lisa M. Shin, Jerome Kagan, and Scott L. Rauch. “Inhibited and Uninhibited Infants ‘Grown up’: Adult Amygdalar Response to Novelty.” Science (New York, N.Y.) 300, no. 5627 (June 20, 2003): 1952–53.

Blog post

Fang, Janet. “Stalagmites Record 3,000 Years of Climate Changes in Europe.” IFLScience. IFLScience, June 18, 2015. https://www.iflscience.com/environment/stalagmites-record-3000-years-climate-changes-europe/.

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. “Survey on State Wireless E911 Funds, an E-Supplement to GAO-06-338.” Washington, DC: U.S. Government Printing Office, March 10, 2006.

Theses and dissertations

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

Doctoral dissertation

Flores, David. “The EastSide Café: A Liberated Learning Zone.” Doctoral dissertation, California State University, Long Beach, 2014.

News paper articles

Unlike scholarly journals, news papers do not usually have a volume and issue number. Instead, the full date and page number is required for a correct reference.

New York Times article

Williams, John. “Updating DNA’s Life Story.” New York Times, August 18, 2017.
