Abstract
You need to cite your sources when you use quotes, paraphrase another's words/ideas, or use evidence (facts, figures, statistics) that are not common knowledge. But what is "common knowledge"? Think of it as something you would not know unless you had done research on the subject. However, common knowledge can also include certain dates, quotes, and specific facts -provided you can make the claim that you feel most people would know them.
