He provides answers, guidance, and advice on: 1) How to start a thesis, dissertation or formal paper; 2) How to cite references for both online and offline sources; 3) How to format a paper in APA Style, Chicago Style, or MLA Style; 4) What "display" pages to include -- and what pages not to include; 5) When to use in-text citations, footnotes, endnotes as well as a bibliography page or reference list page; 6) When to use Arabic or Roman numerals to identify chapters, headings, parts, etc.; 7) How to present tables, figures, and illustrations; 8) expert writing advice regarding writing style and grammar usage; and so on.
