Not only that but the NFL mandates that we have author qualification in our evidence cause if they didnt then I could quote my best friend and it be considered ligit. However, I do agree that when people only argue the year on evidence then I get aggrevated. Qualifications are nessesary.

I'm certain that citation standards already vary considerably around the nation. Heck, evidence citation quality varies considerably between handbooks.

Policy teams say, "Khalizad '95..." and begin. PFD teams say, "According to Zalmay Khalizad, the former U.S. ambassador to the U.N., in 1995..." If teams don't offer author qualifications, I immediately become suspicious of their evidence. This doesn’t really apply to PFD. Policy teams say, “Khalizad ’95…” and begin.
