@moritzkraehe I use normal website conventions (for APA). Include 'accessed [date]' & full url. Wayback Machine is the title of the publication so would be the part that is italised in APA. Cite the authors as normal and put n.d. for no date. My advice would be to list separate citations for each version (bc the url is different) that you want to cite. In the body text, add numerals to the citations as per you would with the same author(s) for different publications with the same year.

@moritzkraehe Id suggest there is no such thing as a 'near identical' source. Each source is unique and has to be given as such. BUT, in your case it may be sufficient to cite Amtrak only once, then refer to each archived version only in the body text (with footnotes).

@moritzkraehe I sense frustration! I think this partially depends on what you are writing. If its an academic paper, citations need to be very formal, separate and usually placed in that section at the end. If its a report, footnotes would be much more used (though I do use lots of footnotes for tech stuff in some journal papers).

@moritzkraehe But, the way we talked about listing multiple 'Amtrak. (year, month, day). Title of Page. Internet Archive (or Wayback Machine). Retrieved from [url] is also indicated in this: http://www.writediteach.com/images/Citing%20from%20a%20Digital%20Archive%20like%20the%20Internet%20Archive.pdf

I think evenif you are citing multiple versions all from say 2002, youd use the usual convention of 2002a, 2002b etc. Use the date of the archived version, NOT the date of the AMtrak page (which is unknown and not what we are looking at).

@wikipedia I missed the poll but I just shared the wild magical ancient wonder of Ħaġar Qim megalithic temple.

Ħaġar Qim (Maltese pronunciation: [ħadʒar ˈʔiːm]; "Standing/Worshipping Stones") is a megalithic temple complex found on the Mediterranean island of Malta, dating from the Ġgantija phase (3600–3200 BC).The Megalithic Temples of Malta are among the most ancient religious sites on Earth... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C4%A6a%C4%A1ar_Qim
