Referencing
Wikipedia is not an acceptable reference source. You will be marked down severely if Wikipedia is included as a reference.
Reference sources should mainly be from peer reviewed academic journal articles through library databases. AIH encourages In-text citations using Harvard referencing.
The general rule of thumb is 1 reference source for every 100-150 words written, excluding the Introduction and Conclusion.
