Vancouver Citation Style has two basic elements:
Example:
Without intentional countermeasures, algorithms inherit the biases of their creators, as well as the societal and historical contexts in which they are developed [3].
Example (eBook):
3. Baer T. Understand, manage, and prevent algorithmic bias: a guide for business users and data scientists [Internet]. Berkeley, CA: Apress, 2019 [cited 2021 Apr 27]. Available from: https://learning.oreilly.com/library/view/understand-manage-and/9781484248850.
Immediately after the table or figure in question, include "Source: (#)" and assign it a Reference Number just as you would any other in-text citation.
Example:
Figure 1
This is a sample caption.
Source: (5)
Citation managers help you keep track of resources and cite them during the research process. They usually feature browser extensions that let you quickly save resources as you browse the web. All of these citation managers support Vancouver Style.
Citation Generators work if you need a quick one-off citation, but unlike Citation Managers, they usually don't let you organize or save your citations for later.
A Word of Caution:
Even the best citation tools make lots of mistakes! Always, always double-check your citations before turning them in, especially if you use one of these tools.
