Following MLA punctuation and citation formatting, as employed by Victorians Journal
Eliminating repetitive use of secondary titles within the text and footnotes (found on works cited)
Avoiding parenthetical asides wherever possible
Minimizing footnotes to prevent parallel narratives. Notes should be limited to conveying relevant references for further study.
