- Authors are asked to put quotations in italics with consecutive superscripted numbers after the quotes used. If a citation is the end of a statement, the superscripted number should be placed before a dot or any other punctuation mark.
- Footnotes should be placed at the bottom of a page (not at the end of a paper). Each element ought to be detached by a comma, and there should be a dot at the end.

- The format of references:
- The first reference to a book or an article should contain all the elements of bibliographic description,
- In case of another reference to already described document, if consecutive references concern the same item, instead of full description, the author should use the expression “ibidem” followed by a page number,
- In case another reference to already described document, yet not appearing directly before the current reference, the initial elements of the bibliographic description should be repeated (the name of the author and the name of the book) followed by the expression “op. cit.”.
- Bibliography (divided into bibliography and netography) should be ordered according to the alphabet. Bibliographic description ought to be written according to the same rules as references, only except page numbers.
