For online reference works that are continuously updated, such as the online version of the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, the publication date should be recorded as n.d. (no date) and the date you looked at the online article is placed before the URL in the citation.
Even some more 'official' dictionaries and encyclopedias are updated in an on-going basis and should follow the rule above. For instance, the first example under Encyclopedias is called a 'living edition' even though it has a DOI, ISBN, and publisher. Therefore, the citation requires that 'no date' be indicated in the publication date and retrieval information is included before the URL.
Because Wikipedia keeps copies of each version of each article, do not use 'no date' in place of the publication date, nor include retrieval date information.

A digital object identifier (DOI) is an alphanumeric code that is assigned to content to provide a persistent identifier (like a social security number for articles and chapters and other content). A DOI acts as a locator - helping individuals find articles and chapters cited in bibliographies. DOIs are preferable to URLs because even if the URL for an article breaks in the future, the DOI will remain constant.
DOIs and APA Style
In APA-style reference citations, always express the DOI as a URL (see below). This may sound confusing (after all, DOIs different than URLS), but expressing a DOI as a URL allows readers to more easily access the document you cited. DOIs are commonly seen on born-digital content, but may also be included in the print version of content. DOIs always begin with 10; however, a DOI can be expressed as a URL, where https://doi.org/ appears in front of the DOI. If you find a DOI on a source you are citing that does not include https://doi.org/ as a prefix, add it to the DOI for the APA citation. It is best to copy and paste the DOI from digital content to your bibliography so that there are no transcription errors - but don't forget to change the font and font size to match the rest of your paper!
DOI without URL prefix
10.1111/j.1471-8847.2007.00193.x
same DOI with URL prefix added
https://doi.org/10.1111/j.1471-8847.2007.00193.x
1. The DOI should be listed on the first page of a journal article. It is sometimes more difficult to find a DOI on a book or book chapter – check the title page verso. The DOI may or may not be prefaced with the letters DOI.
DOI on the Article First Page - Example 1
DOI on the Article First Page - Example 2
2. DOIs are often included in database records. Thus, when searching a library database like Academic Search Premier, SpringerLink, or Summon, if a DOI is assigned to an article, book, or book chapter, the DOI will be included in the database record.
DOI in a Database Record - Example 1
DOI in a Database Record - Example 2
3. DOIs may also be found in the bibliography of an article – as authors are now using DOIs as a citation tool. If you find a DOI in a bibliography and want to find the actual article, book, or book chapter (or at least further citation information), you need to use a DOI resolver (see http://dx.doi.org/).

In press articles are also called Journal Pre-Proofs.
In press articles are articles are manuscripts that have been submitted to and accepted by a journal, but are still in the process of final production; therefore, it is possible mistakes are included in this version of the article that will be caught and corrected before the final version. It is important to note in citation when working with an in press article, so that the reader knows the version of the article any information came from. Not all journals put in press articles online for others to see. It is generally journals in the sciences that offer access to articles before the final version is completed. In general, in press articles will not have a volume, issue, or page numbers; they may or may not be assigned a DOI.

Personal Communications
Emails • Text Messages • Private Letters • Online Chats • Direct Messages • Memos •
Telephone Conversations • Unrecorded Classroom Lectures •
Personal Conference Notes • Live Speeches
Personal communications are only cited with an In-Text Citation.
Do not give a Reference Citation.
Personal Communications are unpublished information sources that are not recoverable by the greater population (readers). For published communications, use the corresponding published format for citation examples (i.e., for letters published in a book, cite a book; personal communications may be published in journal articles, books, book chapters, blogs, websites, et cetera).
Information Needed
Examples
In a letter written by Wyoming State Senator Robert J. Rymill (personal communication, January 12, 1936) to his brother W. L. Rymill, the senator stated, “Serving on city and county school boards is the most successful avenue to changing education."
Chief Operating Officer Cecelia Okafor (personal communication, July 7, 2017) advised the Board of Trustees of the necessity of managing human capital costs and cross-training efforts.
One presenter, at a recent copyright conference, stated, “My best advice regarding the amount used is to consider the amount needed to serve the purpose in relation to the work being used” (C. Myers, personal communication, June 10, 2017).
The following example is for a text message from an unknown source. Generally, the author of a text message is known and both Parenthetical and Narrative In-Text Citations will include the author's name.
A text message sent from an unknown source (personal communication, May 27, 2020) stated, "Some who came into contact with you tested positive or has shown symptoms for COVID-19 & recommends you self-isolate/get tested." Cable News Network (CNN, 2020) later reported that individuals across the United States received the same or similar text messages that including a link that - if activated - downloaded malware onto the recipient's computer.
In an email, G. Hampson (personal communication, April 20,2020) expressed his opinion on commercial (for-profit) entities' involvement in open access as follows:
I think we can build a very effective future on this common ground instead of continuing along the path where we divide our community into those whose motives are “pure,” and those who also look to do this work in a sustainable business manner.
Classroom Lecture (Unrecorded)
During a session of a human anatomy course at the University of Northern Colorado, Professor S. P. Mackessy (personal communication, January 21,2020) referenced a forensic investigation in which snake venom was used as a poison in the death of a two-year-old.
A note on keeping a personal Dark Archive
for Personal Communications used in research.
The Society of American Archivists defines a Dark Archive as "a repository that stores archival resources for future use but is accessible only to its custodian" or a "collection of materials preserved for future use but with no current access."
Generally, a Dark Archive is not necessary or advisable for student papers; however, for theses, dissertations, and formally published works, a Dark Archive of Personal Communications is recommended. Thus, if you cite an email in a journal article, keep that email so that if anyone asks you about the information in the email or questions the veracity of the information, you still have that information accessible.
