2.1 When to Cite

You must always cite:
- whenever you use factual information or date you found in a source.
- whenever you quote verbatim.
- whenever you summarize, paraphrase, or otherwise use ideas, opinions, interpretations, or conclusions arrived at by another person.
- whenever you mention in passing some aspect of another person's work (unless said work is very widely known.

* When you haven’t actually read the original source, cite the passage as “quoted in” or “cited in” the scholar you read.
