In referring to our journal, the correct citation format should conform to Bluebook Rule 18.2.3:

18.2.3 Direct Citations to Internet Sources

(a) Generally. An Internet source may be cited directly when it does not exist in a traditional printed format or on a widely available commercial database, or when a traditional printed source, such as a letter or unpublished dissertation, exists but cannot be found and is so obscure that it is practically unavailable. In either case, the title, pagination, and publication date should be reported as they appear on the Internet. The Internet URL should then be appended directly to the end to the end of the citation (i.e., not preceded by "available at" or "at"). The citation should be formatted by analogy to rules 10-17 and rules 19-21 and be based on the following principles.

For example:
