in thread 20 most important Perl Best Practices

I think, moritz wrote those two. I just literally copied the entire page what I could find here, and I erased and changed it to my taste. Erix mentioned Abigail's guidelines. I copied those too.

Again, I did not write these rules. I just merged them into a single list, and I did not create this list with the intention that others should adopt these rules or they should follow them. I just simply organized the list for myself. It's a pretty good list. I think, I could find more rules like this if I did a Google search, but I didn't do that.

    And here is why:

      When do you need to cite sources?

      Citations are required in all types of academic¹ texts. They are needed for several reasons:

      • To avoid plagiarism by indicating when you’re taking information from another source
      • To give proper credit to the author of that source
      • To allow the reader to consult your sources for themselves]
    On a Meta level, please note that I referenced from where I copied that advice, because...
