Here is the information. How do I enter it on my Works Cited page? I have looked and spent over 3 hours. It is an electronic source from Taser International, Inc. The information I am using is under the heading, "Law Enforcement FAQ's." Can someone please help me? If someone could go to the website and tell me how to start it and not give me another website to go to about MLA formatting. I have covererd every one. Do I start with Taser International, Inc. or start with "Law Enforcement FAQ's?" Also, when documenting in parenthetical citations, do I put (Taser)-underlined with no page or ("Law") with no page? Thanks so much

To create a citation for an electronic source from Taser International, Inc., the first step is to gather the necessary information. Here's how you can construct the citation and handle the parenthetical citations in MLA format:
1. Start with the author's name. If there is no specific author mentioned, you can use the corporate author's name which, in this case, is Taser International, Inc.
2. Next, include the title of the web page or article you are referencing. In this case, it is "Law Enforcement FAQ's." Make sure to use proper capitalization rules, including capitalizing significant words and proper nouns.
3. Include the name of the website, which is Taser International, Inc. or the URL if the website name is not stated. However, if it's a well-known website, like an online newspaper, you can omit the website name and move straight to the URL.
4. Include the publication date or the date of the last update for the specific page or article you are using. If no publication date is available, use "n.d." to indicate that it is not known.
5. Finally, add the URL (web address) where the page can be found. Ensure that the link is clickable and easy to navigate.
Here's an example of how the citation would look:
Taser International, Inc. "Law Enforcement FAQ's." Taser International, Inc., n.d. URL.
For the parenthetical citation within your text, how you reference the source depends on what information is available. If you have the author's name, you can use it in the citation. If not, use the corporate author's name.
For example:
- Parenthetical citation with author's name:
(Taser International, Inc.)
- Parenthetical citation without author's name:
("Law Enforcement FAQ's")
Remember to italicize the titles of the web page or article in your Works Cited entry, but when using the title in your in-text citation, put them in quotation marks.
I hope this helps clarify how to format your Works Cited entry and parenthetical citations in MLA style.
