Hey @mathowl!

Thanks for stopping by and owl-curating one of my posts! I feel honoured, and I'm grateful. I'm happy to see that the posts met the standards of 4 owls! :)

Since there seem to be some shortcoming in the citation and sources department, please allow me to do the citation and sources owl some justice.

I always try to include all necessary sources but thought that a fully blown APA standard might be an overkill. Maybe I'll get there since I feel like transparency is crucial. Also, I think every source deserves the credit.

So... why didn't I include the sources?

  • Images: The two images used in this article are from Pixabay. They are free for commercial use and don't require attribution. Which is why I left the source out. In hindsight, I should've listed Pixabay under Sources and Additional Information. Just for the sake of transparency and gratitude for providing free pictures. If you check out my latest post, you'll find out, that I improved that. All images now have a short caption and link to the source. Furthermore, Pixabay and/or Pexels is listed under Sources and Additional Information.
  • Illustrations: The illustrations are created by myself, which makes it tricky to list a source 😅. The illustrations are a simplified version of the ones to be found in the Book "Mastering Bitcoin" from Andreas Antonopoulos. Although Andreas, as well as his books, are listed in the sources, I guess that I could've done better. This is also something I improved in my latest post. Feel free to check it out.

Thanks again for taking time to curate my post. I feel honoured and appreciate your feedback!
I'm hoping to see your owls again on another blog post of mine.
Keep up your excellent work and have a great day!
Cheers - @sblue

Good job. If you use CC0 images it is also nice to include the photographer/creator since it might lead to extra exposure for them. :o)

I absolutely agree! 👍Will do so in the future!
