that has always stressed me out too, like what if we actually know things and thus can't give a reference....? but often, the more sources the better, cause then they can't pick on you for 'taking credit for something that's not yours', though that's hard when you actually haven't used a reference. idk
we were told specifically to not use any sources outside the 'pensum' we have had this year, the only exception was the WALS website in case it was something relevant there (for me it wasn't at least), and I haven't used any sources on e.g. what analytic and synthetic languages are because I know that from when I had latin in high school hmmm
