Answer 1

Author's Last Name, First Name. "Title of Entry." Title of Encyclopedia, Publication Date, Name of Website. URL.

pay very close attention to punctuation and capitalization. There's a comma between the author's first and last names, then a period, then the title of the entry goes in quotes with a period inside the quotes. Then the title of the encyclopedia, followed by a comma, then the date of publication, then another comma, then the URL.
