Extracts in-text citations and the reference list, runs rule-based APA/MLA format checks, and looks sources up in CrossRef. CrossRef mainly indexes journal articles with DOIs. Books, older works, and non-journal sources are often absent — “Could not verify” means only that CrossRef had no matching record, not that there is a problem with the source.
Citation results run with the academic scan — never while typing, and never in the business workspace.
Rule-based APA and MLA checks flag missing years, punctuation issues, and order problems.
Verified means the returned CrossRef record matches author, year, and title. Could not verify means CrossRef had no corresponding match — common for books and older works.
