How to cite a web page in AMA 11

Short answer

How do you cite a web page in AMA 11?

You need author or organisation, year, page title, site name, url, date accessed. The reference list entry looks like this:

Agency QA. Academic integrity charter for uk higher education. QAA. Published 2025. Accessed August 14, 2026. https://www.qaa.ac.uk/academic-integrity

The matching in-text citation is 1.

Step by step

Building the reference

  1. Gather the details

    You need: Author or organisation, Year, Page title, Site name, URL, Date accessed. Take them from the source itself, not from a database record, which is often incomplete.

  2. Order the elements

    AMA 11 is a numeric style, so the reference is numbered in citation order. Follow the pattern in the example below exactly, including its punctuation.

  3. Add the in-text citation

    Every reference needs a matching in-text citation. In AMA 11 that is 1. Missing or mismatched in-text citations are penalised more often than formatting slips.

  4. Check against your own guide

    Institutional variants exist, particularly in Harvard. Where your department's published guide differs from any generator, the department's guide wins.

What you need

Details to collect

  • Author or organisation
  • Year
  • Page title
  • Site name
  • URL

Watch out

Mistakes this pairing invites

  • Concluding there is no date without checking the page source or copyright line.
  • Using the site name as the author when a named author is present.
  • Omitting the access date in styles that require it, such as Harvard and MLA.
  • Citation numbers are superscript, placed after punctuation.
  • Article titles use sentence case; journal abbreviations are italicised.
