This is a great tool for citations
This is a great tool for citations. I've been using this tool since 5-7 years ago. It works well for my thesis in my master's degree and more works later on. This Scribbr is always reliable with many functions to use. You can copy the citation, save it to a list, or export it as a list and download it in MS Word. Easy and simple.

The Best Citation Source!
Scribbr has helped me SO much in my years of high school, going into my years of college. Having a source that is reliable and free takes so much weight off of my shoulders. Knowing that all it takes is a copy and paste and my reference sheet is complete is amazing! I would recommend Scribbr to anyone.

We understand that occasionally a URL may not be recognized, requiring manual citation. Our tool works with billions of sources, web pages, and documents, so sometimes a source may not be automatically detected. In these cases, manually citing is indeed the most reliable option.

The only citation generator needed
This is the only citation generator I use. It easily lets me edit citations, copy the ones I need, and offers most, if not all, of the citation formats. I love that it can save citations to projects, so I don't get them mixed up. It is generally very simple to use. It quickly finds most sources, especially if given an ISBN or DOI number.

I uploaded my file and it said moderate plagiarism, but had the percentage blurred. I was surprised because I was very careful with paraphrasing and citations, but I didn't want to risk it so I paid only to see that the "moderate risk" was 3%. 3%!! I feel scammed

Hi Elsa,
We are sorry to hear that you are not completely satisfied with the Plagiarism Checker, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your experience.
The software used for our Plagiarism Checker detects similarities that could potentially be plagiarism. This also includes general expressions, correctly quoted text passages, and in-text citations. Your risk level is just a first indication of whether the check found (several) similarities that need your attention.
By identifying similarities, our Plagiarism Checker helps you identify any instances where proper credit might be needed, ensuring your work is original and properly attributed. All plagiarism checks work the same way; they detect similarities, and from these similarities, humans have to decide whether the shown similarities are actual plagiarism. The thresholds of the risk levels are in line with the standards of most universities.
That said, we understand that the results of your Check were not as helpful as you had hoped. We'd love the chance to make this right and have therefore reached out to you privately.
We hope to hear from you soon!
Cheers,
Daphne & the Scribbr team
