To put an in-text citation for Wikipedia in APA, you would use the following format: ("Title of article," n.d.) An example would be: ("World War II," n.d.) If you want to direct your reader to a specific section of the Wikipedia article, you can include the paragraph number at the end of your citation. For example: ("World War II," n.d., para. 5)

To cite Wikipedia parenthetically in APA format within your research paper, keep the shortened title of the Wikipedia entry inside parentheses. Then add the version year, separated by a comma. Example: (“Dual process,” 2022) Your writing, at its best.

In APA Style (7th edition), only the first word of the title is capitalized, and there is no period after the URL. The in-text citation includes the title of the article (with title-case capitalization, and shortened if necessary) and the year.
