source reference
The naming of the origin of a piece of information, an image, or a quotation, for example in an academic paper or an article. It makes it possible to verify the information used.
Für jede Behauptung in deiner Abschlussarbeit musst du eine exakte Quellenangabe machen.
For every claim in your thesis, you must provide an exact source reference.
This word is made up of 'die Quelle' (source) and 'die Angabe' (statement/information). So it is literally an 'Angabe über die Quelle' (information about the source) of a piece of information.
Eine korrekte Quellenangabe ist in der Wissenschaft unerlässlich.
A correct source reference is essential in academia.
Common verbs in this context are 'eine Quellenangabe machen' (to provide a source reference), 'prüfen' (to check), or 'hinzufügen' (to add). The phrase 'ohne Quellenangabe' (without a source reference) is also very common.
Der Professor hat kritisiert, dass viele Quellenangaben fehlen.
The professor criticized the fact that many source references were missing.
The term 'Quellenangabe' (source reference) is used mainly in academic, scientific, and journalistic contexts to ensure that information can be traced and verified.
Im Journalismus ist die Prüfung der Quellenangaben ein wichtiger Teil der Arbeit.
In journalism, checking source references is an important part of the work.

The Verweis and the Quellenangabe can both appear when documenting a statement. A Verweis directs the reader to another place or source, whereas the Quellenangabe explicitly states its origin. Use Quellenangabe for information about the origin and Verweis for directing the reader there.
Unter dem Bild steht eine Quellenangabe, die seine Herkunft nennt.
A source reference below the image states where it came from.
Im Text führt ein Verweis auf die Stelle, an der die verwendete Quelle genannt wird.
The reference in the text directs the reader to the place where the source used is identified.
