There should be no full stops in capitalized abbreviations (USA). In proper names, initials are followed by a full stop but no space in between, e.g. T.S. Eliot. Note the space between the final initial and the surname.
• Dashes: hyphen - between words as in: Baraniecka-Olszewska, black-white, re-enactment etc. n dash – between numbers, page numbers etc. m dash—without spaces in dividing sentences.

References and quotes
The author is responsible for the accuracy of quotations and citations, which should be verified before the article is submitted. The surname and given name of the author of a quoted work must be mentioned in text for the first time; for the second (third and so on) time only the surname should be mentioned. In bibliography should contain only those references, which you have used in your article. For works in other languages than English in the references, please put the translation of work’s title in brackets ().

Acknowledgements of people, grants, funds, etc. should be placed in a separate section before the References. 

Examples of references:

In the text:
(Harlan 1992: 92) or (Harlan 1992: 92-100) or (Harlan & Courtright 1995)
If the author’s name is mentioned in the sentence, just use (1992: 92)
If you quote a work by its title only (e.g. encyclopedia or dictionary entries), shorten title (and use the same form in the references section, and use italics): (Encyclopedia 2000: 4)
If you quote the same work for the second time directly after the first reference: (Ibid.: 93)

When there are more than two authors, only the first and second author‘s name should be mentioned, followed by ‘et al.‘. In the event that the author cited has had two or more works published during the same year, the citation and the reference should contain a lower case letter like a and b after the date to distinguish the works. 

In the references section:

Books:
References to books should include the author‘s name (surname and initials); year of publication; the full title in italics; the place of publication; publisher; page numbers where appropriate. For example:
