Recommendations for references compilation and formating

A well-thought-out list of references characterizes the relevance and qualitative level of the research conducted by the author. 

A well–designed description of the sources is a guarantee that the cited publication will be taken into account when evaluating the scientific activity of the author and, as a result, the organization. 

The recommended volume of the list of references for review articles is at least 50 sources, for other articles – at least 15. The share of sources less than 5 years old should be at least half. The acceptable percentage of self–citation is no higher than 10. The volume of references to foreign sources should be at least 30%.

When making a list of sources and literature, please follow the rules for making bibliographic references according to GOST R 7.0.5-2008. 

In the transliterated list of references, the line length cannot exceed 1000 characters.

GENERAL RECOMMENDATIONS

It is recommended to include references to scientific articles, monographs, collections of articles, conference collections, dissertations and abstracts of dissertations, normative documents, laws and regulations, archival documents, electronic resources indicating the date of application.

Authors are not recommended to refer to textbooks, manuals, other educational literature; articles on Wikipedia, social networks. References to scientific literature are required!

To design the list of references, you can use the Mendeley system.

The cited literature is given at the end of the text of the article in the order of mention. The serial number of the source and the numbers of the cited pages in the text of the article are indicated in square brackets: [7, p.245].

The number of references in the text of the article should correspond to the number of sources in the list of references. It is unacceptable to refer to unpublished works.
