Answer 2

When giving credit within a paper when the source that you are using does not have an author, the information you should place within the parenthetical citation at the end of the idea is:

Most trustworthy sources have an author. However, sometimes there is no author specially when it is a source found online. An example of an in-text citation in these cases could be (Title of the Article 29).
