      • The titles of the works cited for the first time are given in full footnote, together with the name of the publication, the place and the year of issue. When citing the author's work again, we use the shortened text. Quoting the work from the previous footnote, we use the acronym "Tam". When immediately after the author's work, we quote another of his works, instead of the author's name we write: "Ten." The same principles of re-quotation apply to articles from magazines, collections, source publications, etc.

      • When quoting for the first time in foreign language - the title and bibliographic data (place of issue, volume, booklet, etc.) are given in the language of the publication.
  15.  Dates in text and footnotes in full text are digitally recorded using Roman numerals for months, eg 4 December, 1610. The word of the month is used when no annual date is given, eg 6 August. The terms year and age are shortened by the number, before the number we write in full tones, eg "in 1618", "in the eighteenth century" but "in 1943", "in the XX century". We do not use numbers for type descriptions: the 1930s, as is the case for the numbering of local and world wars (World War II).
