FAQ
Questions about this tool
Does this prove a source is acceptable?
No. It flags common credibility signals and risks, but your instructor, library rules, and assignment prompt decide what counts as acceptable.
What should I paste into the checker?
Paste the citation, URL, author/publisher details, abstract, summary, or notes about the source. More details produce a stronger first-pass review.
Can this check scholarly sources?
It can look for scholarly-source signals such as journal, DOI, method, references, publication date, and author credentials, but you still need to confirm the source type.
Can Academic Wizard help replace weak sources?
Yes. Research Paper Support can help organize stronger source options, source roles, and citation cleanup for the assignment.
