Scratch Citation

I am using the Scratch website in general as a citation for a school project. Does anybody know the MLA citation for Scratch website?

It would be a great help if somebody could post it here. Thanks!

MLA format I think would be:

Code:

Scratch Imagine • Program • Share
<scratch.mit.edu/>

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that would be the very basic, standard MLA formatting.

Re: Scratch Citation

I don't think Scratch is a reliable way to get normal information, unless your report is about Scratch...

Re: Scratch Citation

One part of the project wants a reference of how I first learned to program and make games. Scratch taught me this so I decided to use it as a reference.

Re: Scratch Citation

It depends on what you're trying to cite. You don't usually cite an entire website, just a part of it, such as an image or article (and I guess also Scratch projects in this case). And since Scratch is full of a lot of media, you need to be specific what exactly you're trying to cite.

Here's the format for MLA citation.
