Frequently asked questions

Is this AMA 11 citation generator free?

Yes. There is no account, no usage cap and no watermark on the output. It runs the same formatter Quilpen uses internally.

Does it handle multiple authors correctly?

Yes. Each style truncates author lists differently — AMA 11 has its own rule, and the formatter applies it rather than listing every name.

Can I generate a whole bibliography at once?

This page formats one source at a time. Quilpen builds and maintains the full bibliography for a manuscript, keeping in-text citations and the reference list in sync as you write.

Will the citation be accepted by my university?

The output follows the published manual. Some departments add house rules on top of the standard — check your handbook if your institution specifies variations.

Writing the whole paper, not just one citation?

Quilpen drafts from PDFs you upload and cites the exact page each claim came from — in AMA 11 and eight other styles. It cannot invent a source, because it only quotes what you gave it.
