APA format and government websites (Report ID 2084191939)
Some websites, such as government websites are not being retrieved or formatted correctly. One example: When saved to library and then selected for "Create Bibliography" the following site
(https://www.fda.gov/aboutfda/whatwedo/history/milestones/ucm128305.htm)
becomes:
“Milestones in U.S. Food and Drug Law History - Significant Dates in U.S. Food and Drug Law History.” WebContent. Accessed October 2, 2017. https://www.fda.gov/AboutFDA/WhatWeDo/History/Milestones/ucm128305.html.

Also not right (which was my point), but APA will never use quotation marks and will use "Retrieved" not "Accessed"
