I have to make a work cited page and I’m confused how to find editor/author etc. on a website. Here are the websites I’m using:
http://www.occupationalinfo.org/onet/15031.html
http://www.schoolsintheusa.com/careerprofiles_details.cfm?carid=1694
http://careers.stateuniversity.com/pages/38/Nursery-Greenhouse-Manager.html
http://www.thelandlovers.org/career_Nursery.asp
http://www1.salary.com/Nursery-Greenhouse-Manager-Salary.html
The MLA format for the work cited page is ditor, author, or compiler name (if available). “Name of Page/Article.” Name of Site.
Version number. Name of institution/organization affiliated with the site (sponsor or publisher), date of resource creation (if available). Medium of publication. Date of access.
I have no idea how to find most of that. Please help?
On websites, unless it’s an article, such as on a newspaper or magazine website, you’ll find you information at the very bottom of the page. Here’s what’s on the bottom of the first website:

Webpage may not provide this information. MLA requires the use of specail abbreviations:
“If publishing information is unavailable for entries that require publication information such as publisher (or sponsor) names and publishing dates, MLA requires the use of special abbreviations to indicate that this information is not available. Use n.p. to indicate that neither a publisher nor a sponsor name has been provided. Use n.d. when the Web page does not provide a publication date.”
