    The document provides guidelines for citing authors with Malay names in Harvard style. There are two options for in-text citations: citing the whole name as it appears or citing only the author's personal name. For the latter, hereditary and conferred titles are removed, as well as patronyms, family names, and additional names. Examples are given to illustrate both whole name and personal name citations. The key rule is to choose one style and apply it consistently throughout a work.

    Swinburne Harvard Style Malay names section In-text guidelines only.


    Choice of citing whole names or personal names - version 3.

    In regards to in-text citations for authors with Malay names, Swinburne Sarawak Library has
    recommended until now that the whole name (personal name + family name) be cited. The
    guidelines below provide a method to cite Malay names in-text using only the authors
    personal name or given name. Examples are provided and shall illustrate both options.
    Whichever you choose to use, remember that the most important rule of Swinburne Harvard
    Style is to always be consistent
    (http://www.swinburne.edu.au/lib/studyhelp/harvard_style.html#Mostimportantrule) - once
    you have chosen one of the two methods for citing Malay names in-text for a piece of work,
    you must then consistently apply that method throughout that same piece of work.

    Method for in-text references for whole Malay names:


    Place the entire name of the author into the in-text reference exactly as it appears on the
    information source and then remove any conferred title(s) given to the author, or to the
    family name, or both (Swinburne Sarawak Library staff can assist you with this).

    Method for in-text references for Malay personal/given names only:


    A Malay's name consists of a personal name or given name, which is used to address him or
    her in all circumstances, often followed by a patronym, either bin for men or binti/binte for
    women. The personal name may be a single word (eg. Mohammad) or may be more than a
    single word, sometimes referred to as a compound name (eg. Abdul Wahab Isa).

    Look at the names as they appear on the information source and try to determine the
    personal name.

    If a personal name is more than a single word, this may be because a hereditary title has
    been included.
    Hereditary titles should be included in an in-text reference.
    Hereditary titles:
    Wan, Nik, Megat, Putri, Abang, Raja, Syed, Tengku, Tunku, Tuanku, Yang, Long, Teuku,
    Daeng, Daing, Engku, Ungku, Syed/Sharifah, Mior, Awang/Abang, Dayang, Dayangku, Che,
    etc.
    Here are two examples of in-text references with hereditary titles included:
    (Wan Khairuzzaman 2011), (Putri Noor 2012, p. 37).

    Then, for your piece of work, cite this author in-text consistently throughout, having first
    removed:
    1) Patronyms (bin, binte/binti, al, ibni);
    2) Family names and fathers names;
    3) Honourifics (Encik (Mr.), Puan (Wife of/Mrs.), Cik (Miss);
    4) Conferred titles, such as
    a) Religious titles (Haji or Hajjah, Lebai, Mufti, etc.);
    b) Titles of Honour (eg. Dato, Dato' Amar DiRaja, Datuk, Tan Sri, Tun, Tuan);
    c) Titles of Office (eg. Sultan, Yang DiPertuan Besar, Tuanku, Batin, Datuk Setia
    Mahkota, etc.);
    d) Terms of address (eg. Adek, Bongsu, Habib, Pak, Yang Amat Behormat, Yang Mulia
    etc. or their abbreviations (YAB for Yang Amat Berhormat)); and
    e) Additional names indicating place of origin or trade (eg. al-Rembaui, al-Qari, alJohori).

    You should only cite in-text the personal name of the author.

    Here is an example of this method in action: a reference to a webpage created in 2012 by


    Mohammad Haji Salleh would become, in-text, just (Mohammad 2012) the title Haji is
    removed, as it is a conferred (religious) title, and Salleh is removed because it is a family
    name or fathers name.

    The name Mohammad may have been abbreviated in an information source to M., Md.,
    Mohd. or Muhd. Use the full version of the name, not the abbreviation if you are able to
    locate the full version elsewhere in the information source. If you are not able to determine
    the full version, then use the abbreviation.

    If you have two or more separate authors with the same personal name and both published
    an information source in the same year, then differentiate between them by adding the family
    name or fathers name (however, still remove bin or binti/binte, etc.).

    Here is an example: If I have an information source written by Bahiyah binti Abdul and I have
    an information source written by Bahiyah binti Muhammad, and both sources were published
    in 2011, the two in-text references would look like this:
    (Bahiyah Abdul 2011)
    (Bahiyah Muhammad 2011)

    The Reference List/Bibliography should be arranged alphabetically by personal name. If you


    have two or more authors with the same personal name and both published an information
    source in the same year, then arrange those authors further, alphabetically, by fathers
    name.

    Here are more examples of in-text references for Malay names:


    eg. 1) Single author = Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj
    In-text, whole name: (Tunku Abdul Rahman Putra Al-Haj 2007, p.11).
    In-text, personal name only: (Tunku Abdul Rahman 2007, p.11).

    eg. 2) Single author = Haji Buyong bin Adil


    In-text, whole name: (Buyong bin Adil 1983, p.33).
    In-text, personal name only: (Buyong 1983, p.33).

    eg. 3) Single author = Dr Haji Awang Mohd. Jamil Al-Sufri

    eg. 9) Four authors = S.A. Osman, A.R. Khalim, N.A. Nik Abdul Adel & M.T. Ismail

    the Western reconfiguration.
    In-text, using standard Swinburne Harvard Style author guidelines: (Osman et al. 2011,
    p.23).
