: How to correctly cite? I'm currently writing a thesis and for one section the sources are only 3 papers. Some paragraphes are only about one paper. Sometimes it is also mixed, i.e. first sentence

I'm currently writing a thesis and for one section the sources are only 3 papers. Some paragraphes are only about one paper. Sometimes it is also mixed, i.e. first sentence references to paper 1, second sentence to paper 2, third sentence to paper 1, fourth sentence to paper 1 etc. I think placing a reference for each sentence would be a bit crazy.

How should I handle this?

What does the applicable manual of style say? (E.g. APA, Chicago Manual of Style, etc)

If the manual doesn't answer your question, you can look in your source papers for inspiration. How do they cite works in this scenario?

Finally, ask your thesis advisor if you still don't have a clue.
