Always refer to the source (Note: This is where you get your points!)

For web references, make a link to the original source and add the source to your List of References.
Avoid quoting directly more than a few words, a full sentence with a special reason only!
Do not copy-paste! Copy pasting will be controlled.
To exploit references best, paraphrase so as to express the idea in your words.
