MLA Format for Websites

The below MLA information is from Purdue University: 

Basic Style for Citations of Electronic Sources (Including Online Databases)

Here are some common features you should try and find before citing electronic sources in MLA style. Not every Web page will provide all of the following information. However, collect as much of the following information as possible both for your citations and for your research notes:

• Author and/or editor names (if available)
• Article name in quotation marks (if applicable)
• Title of the Website, project, or book in italics. (Remember that some Print publications have Web publications with slightly different names. They may, for example, include the additional information or otherwise modified information, like domain names [e.g. .com or .net].)
• Any version numbers available, including revisions, posting dates, volumes, or issue numbers.
• Publisher information, including the publisher name and publishing date.
• Take note of any page numbers (if available).
• Medium of publication.
• Date you accessed the material.
• URL (if required, or for your own personal reference). (NOTE From Ms. B: List the URL but in its most basic form as in the example below. I don't need a URL that is 4 lines long!)

Example:

Aristotle. Poetics. Trans. S. H. Butcher. The Internet Classics Archive. Web Atomic and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 13 Sept. 2007. Web. 4 Nov. 2008. ‹http://classics.mit.edu/›.

Photos 

As far as I am concerned, you can just cite it as “Photo Source: Catherine the Great, Wikipedia, November 12, 2011.” If there was an actual photographer, they should be credited, but since that won't be the case for the Salon project, this is enough for me. Google Images doesn't count as a source as it is only a search engine...photos attained from a Google image search are all from sources - go to the source and use it.
