You are right to be cautious, though I wouldn't want you to "over think" the problem and/or make too rigid assumptions about reviewers' opinions. I am assuming then the core problem is "peer reviewed papers in academic journals and conferences" rather than URLs. I would suggest that you can still cite material about D even though it is not in peer reviewed academic journals and conferences, but make it clear that it is not "peer reviewed" in the academic sense. The point here is to make clear in your work the nature of the reference being cited, show that you are using the data in a properly academic way. A corollary here is that you don't use "opinion pieces", just works that present data pertinent to your work. -- Russel. ============================================================================= Dr Russel Winder t: +44 20 7585 2200 voip: sip:russel.win...@ekiga.net 41 Buckmaster Road m: +44 7770 465 077 xmpp: rus...@winder.org.uk London SW11 1EN, UK w: www.russel.org.uk skype: russel_winder
