First, let’s bust a myth. You don’t just write “Anonymous” on your Works Cited page. That’s for old-school books from the 1800s. In MLA, when there’s no author, you look at the next most important thing: the title of the article or page. That’s your new best friend.
Think of it like a party. If the author doesn’t show up, the title gets to be the VIP. It takes the lead in the citation lineup. So, instead of “Smith, John,” you’ll start with the title in quotation marks (if it’s an article) or italicized (if it’s a whole website). Easy peasy.
