Basically what you need to do when writing an essay is - assume everything you write is your own thoughts, ideas, findings, conclusions - if you include anything, text, ideas, quotes, even a paraphrase of some people's work, a web-site, a book, a movie, ...anything, you must cite your source of the information. That is why you should start your Works Cited Page as you start writing. If you read a Wiki article to get a general view of the content discussed, the reference to the page should be included as well. This also explains why you do NOT have to submit your work now until your final essay is completed. The Works Cited Page usually adheres to a rigid format, depending on your teacher, or your subject material. One of the common standards is APA format, which you can use if your teacher does not prescribe any format/standard. Here's a site that helps you format your references using different formats. There are other "citation engines" available, you just have to google for them. Hope that gets you started. Happy reading!

Well, I can tell that is a very interesting topic, you know. But I'm not really a good advisor in writing I would better recommend you to ask specialists like Supreme essay to help you with it. They always do a good job. So you can give them a try if you want. Good luck!
