- abstract: summary of an academic article, on the first page immediately after the title
- In the article, “Wiesner and York (1)” refers to the first reference in the bibliography at the end of the article.
- bibliography: a list of books, especially books that were used to write an article or essay
- (In “The Tragedy of the Commons”, it’s instead called “References”.)
- plagiarism: when you copy someone else’s words and present them as your own (with no citation or permission)

- "Space" is no escape (2). - He doesn’t directly quote another article here, but the paragraph is a summary of his own earlier work, so it should also include a reference.
- self-plagiarism is a real thing - If you repeat something you yourself wrote previously, you should cite your earlier work and make it clear you are referring to another source.

- The style you use to organize the information in your own bibliography can be important and confusing. Search for “citation format” to get many different ways to do it, but your university should have a specific policy. (APA or MLA, in the US)
- Book, movie, TV series, and journal titles are italicized, while chapter names, episode names, song titles, and article titles are in “quotes”.

- Homework: read “The Tragedy of the Commons” and take notes to discuss on Monday (at least skim the article try to write an outline of the main ideas). Can you explain in one sentence what the tragedy of the commons is? How does the author think we can reduce or prevent it in the case of pollution?
