Writing a thesis can be an arduous task, requiring extensive research, critical analysis, and coherent

argumentation. From formulating a clear thesis statement to gathering relevant sources, structuring
the document, and adhering to academic standards, the process can be overwhelming for many
students. One crucial aspect of academic writing is creating a well-crafted Work Cited page, which
acknowledges the sources used in the research paper.

credit to the authors and researchers whose work has contributed to your own. It serves as a
testament to the credibility and depth of your research, demonstrating the breadth of sources
consulted during the writing process.
