In one sentence, describe what the following article is about:

Personal interviews are interviews that you have conducted yourself. They have no page number because they have not been published in a book. When you cite a personal interview in the body of your paper, place only the author's last name in parentheses at the end of the sentence.  Periods go after the parentheses. Think about the parenthetical citation as being part of the sentence. The period goes at the end of the whole sentence, so it goes after the parentheses. The superintendent stated that there would be money in the budget for new computers (Jones). Emily said, "Training for the Olympics was the most challenging thing I have ever done" (Walker). MLA guidelines state that if you state the last name in the sentence, you do not need that same information in the parentheses. The parenthetical information complements, not repeats, the information provided in the sentence.  Jones stated that there would be money in the budget for new computers. Walker said, "Training for the Olympics was the most challenging thing I have ever done." The difference between the examples in step 1 and step 2 is the way the last name is presented. In step 1, the last name is in the parenthetical citation because it does not appear in the sentence. In step 2, the last name appears in the sentence, so it does not need to be repeated in a parenthetical citation. The reason why the last name must appear in either the sentence or the parenthetical citation is because the last name corresponds to the entry on the works cited page. Every citation must link directly to the works cited page. If your interview is printed in a book or other print source, provide the author's last name and the page number. You cite this just like you would any book or journal.  Emily trained so hard that she bruised her foot and had to take a break (Walker 45). Walker explained that she had to take a break from training after bruising her foot (45). Remember, MLA does not put a comma between the last name and the page number in a parenthetical citation. Short quotations are no longer than four typed lines. When you cite short quotations from an interview, enclose the directly quoted words in quotation marks. Place the parentheses after the closing quotation mark but before the period.  If a quotation ends with an exclamation point or a question mark, place it inside the quotation marks. Dr. James Hill said, "The virus starts by affecting the brain" (56). Dr. James Hill asked, "If we can't find a cure, how will we save the human race?" (57). Long quotations are longer than four typed lines. When you cite a direct quote from an interview this long, you must place it into a block quote. Do not put quotation marks around the quoted words. Instead, the words will be freestanding from the rest of the paragraph. Start the quotation on a new line after placing a colon after the lead-in text, instead of the comma like for short quotations. The entire quote will be indented one inch from the margin. The parentheses come after the punctuation, unlike in short quotations.  Start your block quote like this: In an interview from 2002, Peter Jackson stated: Punctuate the end of your block quote like this: Jackson said he will always keep making movies. (34-35)
Use only the interviewee's last name when citing personal interviews. Eliminate the parenthetical citation if you use the last name in the sentence. Give the last name and page number for a print interview. Place short quotations from interviews in quotation marks. Format long quotations with a block quote.
Beskriv i en mening vad följande artikel handlar om: Personliga intervjuer är intervjuer som du själv har genomfört. De har inget sidnummer eftersom de inte har publicerats i en bok. När du citerar en personlig intervju i din tidning, placera bara författarens efternamn inom parentes i slutet av meningen. Perioderna går efter parenteserna. Tänk på den parantetiska citeringen som en del av meningen. Perioden går i slutet av hela meningen, så den går efter parenteserna. Överintendenten uppgav att det skulle finnas pengar i budgeten för nya datorer (Jones). Emily sa: "Att träna inför OS var det mest utmanande jag någonsin gjort" (Walker). I MLA:s riktlinjer anges att om du anger efternamnet i meningen behöver du inte samma information inom parentesen. De parentesuppgifter som ges kompletterar, inte upprepar, den information som ges i meningen. Jones uppgav att det skulle finnas pengar i budgeten för nya datorer. Walker sa: "Att träna inför OS var det mest utmanande jag någonsin gjort." Skillnaden mellan exemplen i steg 1 och steg 2 är det sätt på vilket efternamnet presenteras. I steg 1 står efternamnet i den parantetiska citeringen eftersom det inte förekommer i meningen. I steg 2 förekommer efternamnet i meningen, så det behöver inte upprepas i en parentescitering. Orsaken till att efternamnet måste förekomma i antingen meningen eller den parantetiska citeringen beror på att efternamnet motsvarar posten på det citerade verkets sida. Varje citering måste länka direkt till de citerade verken. Om din intervju skrivs ut i en bok eller annan tryckkälla, ange författarens efternamn och sidnummer. Du citerar detta precis som du skulle göra med vilken bok eller dagbok som helst. Emily tränade så hårt att hon fick blåmärken på foten och fick ta en paus (Walker 45). Walker förklarade att hon var tvungen att ta en paus från träningen efter att ha fått blåmärken på foten (45). Kom ihåg att MLA inte sätter ett kommatecken mellan efternamnet och sidnumret i en parentescitering. Korta citat är inte längre än fyra maskinskrivna rader. När du citerar korta citat från en intervju, bifoga de direkt citerade orden i citationstecken. Placera parenteserna efter det avslutande citationstecknet men före perioden. Om ett citat avslutas med ett utropstecken eller ett frågetecken, placera det inuti citationstecken. Dr James Hill sa: " Viruset börjar med att påverka hjärnan" (56). Dr James Hill frågade, "Om vi inte kan hitta ett botemedel, hur ska vi rädda mänskligheten?" (57). Långa citat är längre än fyra maskinskrivna linjer. När du citerar ett direkt citat från en intervju så här länge, måste du placera det i ett block citat. Lägg inte citationstecken runt de citerade orden. Orden blir istället fristående från resten av paragrafen. Starta citatet på en ny rad efter att ha placerat ett kolon efter inledd text, istället för kommatecken som för korta citat. Hela citatet kommer att dras en tum från marginalen. Parenteserna kommer efter interpunktionen, till skillnad från i korta citat. Starta ditt block citat så här: I en intervju från 2002 sade Peter Jackson: Punktera slutet på ditt block citat så här: Jackson sade att han alltid kommer att fortsätta göra filmer. (34–35)
Describe in a sentence what the following article is about: Personal interviews are interviews that you have conducted yourself. They have no page number because they have not been published in a book. When you quote a personal interview in your newspaper, just place the author's surname within parenthesis at the end of the sentence. The periods go after the brackets. Think of the parantetic citation as part of the sentence. The period runs at the end of the whole sentence, so it goes after the brackets. The superintendent stated that there would be money in the budget for new computers (Jones). Emily said, "Training for the Olympics was the most challenging thing I've ever done" (Walker). The MLA guidelines state that if you enter the surname in the sentence you do not need the same information in the parentheses. The parentheses given complement, not repeat, the information given in the sentence. Jones stated that there would be money in the budget for new computers. Walker said, "Training for the Olympics was the most challenging thing I've ever done." The difference between the examples in step 1 and step 2 is the way the surname is presented. In step 1, the surname stands in the paranthetic citation because it does not appear in the sentence. In step 2, the surname appears in the sentence, so it does not need to be repeated in a parentheses citation. The reason why the surname must appear in either the sentence or the parantetic citation is because the surname corresponds to the entry on the page of the cited work. Each citation must link directly to the works quoted. If your interview is printed in a book or other source of printing, enter the author's last name and page number. You quote this just as you would with any book or diary. Emily trained so hard that she bruised her foot and had to take a break (Walker 45). Walker explained that she had to take a break from training after bruised her foot (45). Remember that MLA does not put a comma between the surname and the page number in a parentheses citation. Short quotations are no longer than four typewritten lines. When quoting short quotes from an interview, attach the directly quoted words in quotation marks. Place the brackets after the closing quotation mark but before the period. If a quote ends with an exclamation mark or question mark, place it inside quotes. Dr. James Hill said, "The virus begins by affecting the brain" (56). Dr. James Hill asked, "If we can't find a cure, how are we going to save humanity?" (57). Long quotations are longer than four typewritten lines. When you quote a direct quote from an interview this long, you have to place it in a block quote. Do not put quotation marks around the words quoted. Instead, the words become separate from the rest of the paragraph. Start the quote on a new line after placing a colon after inducted text, instead of comma as for short quotes. The entire quote will be drawn an inch from the margin. The parenthesis come after punctuation, unlike in short quotes. Start your block quote like this: In a 2002 interview, Peter Jackson said: Punctuate the end of your block quote like this: Jackson said he will always continue making movies. (34-35)
