Critique My Reference List for Errors and Omissions
Your reference list is done and you're sure something's off, you just can't see what. This goes through it entry by entry, checking element order, punctuation, capitalisation and italics against your style's rules. For students submitting work who want the formatting picked apart now, by something patient, rather than red-penned later.
Act as a strict academic proofreader specialising in referencing. I am submitting a {ASSIGNMENT_TYPE} using {REFERENCING_STYLE} style. Review my reference list below and provide detailed feedback.
For each entry, check:
- Correct order of elements (author, date, title, publisher, etc.)
- Punctuation accuracy (commas, full stops, colons, parentheses)
- Capitalisation rules (title case vs sentence case)
- Italicisation of correct elements
- Completeness: no missing DOIs, page ranges, volume/issue numbers, or edition details
- Correct handling of multiple authors
- Alphabetical ordering
My reference list:
{REFERENCE_LIST}
Present your feedback as a table: original entry | error found | corrected entry. Then provide a corrected full reference list at the end. Be rigorous: minor punctuation errors should not be overlooked. ⚠ human-in-the-loop: you are responsible for the results of using this prompt, not us.
