Journal articles

Those examples are references to articles in scholarly journals and how they are supposed to appear in your bibliography.

Not all journals organize their published articles in volumes and issues, so these fields are optional. Some electronic journals do not provide a page range, but instead list an article identifier. In a case like this it's safe to use the article identifier instead of the page range.

A journal article with 1 author
Lightman, A., 2005. A tale of two loves. Nature 434, 299–300.
A journal article with 2 authors
Du, C., Xiao, M., 2014. Cu2O nanoparticles synthesis by microplasma. Sci. Rep. 4, 7339.
A journal article with 3 authors
Wang, Y.A., Feng, A.-C., Ganz, P.A., 2014. Health services utilisation in breast cancer survivors in Taiwan. Sci. Rep. 4, 7466.
A journal article with 4 or more authors
Seo, J.-K., Kwon, S.-J., Cho, W.K., Choi, H.-S., Kim, K.-H., 2014. Type 2C protein phosphatase is a key regulator of antiviral extreme resistance limiting virus spread. Sci. Rep. 4, 5905.

Reports

This example shows the general structure used for government reports, technical reports, and scientific reports. If you can't locate the report number then it might be better to cite the report as a book. For reports it is usually not individual people that are credited as authors, but a governmental department or agency like "U. S. Food and Drug Administration" or "National Cancer Institute".

Government report
Government Accountability Office, 1980. Comments on S. 1961, a Bill Cited as the “Higher Education Amendments of 1980” (No. B-197030). U.S. Government Printing Office, Washington, DC.

New York Times article
Shear, M.D., Erlanger, S., 2017. Trump Condemns ‘Deeply Troubling’ Leaks on Attack After Complaints in Britain. New York Times A12.

References should be cited in the text by name and year in parentheses:
