I've seen some academic citations of web references also include the date 
at which the link/URL was referenced/checked, since links aren't as 
reliable as publications in print.

Most tertiary institutions have style guides which they make available
to students and which they expect you to follow. Usually they either
give you a copy or tell you where to access it when you enrol.  It might
be hidden somewhere in the course handouts.  As Greg indicated,
sometimes these are based in faculties or schools rather than spreading
across the whole institution because some disiciplines have
internationally agreed citation standards.  What you really need to do
is to check with the person responsible for the unit you're studying
about how to access the particular style guide for your unit.

Having said that, my copy of "A Style Manual for the Presentation of
Papers and Theses in Religion and Theology" (which is 10 years old now)
says that when documenting an interview by the author you need to
provide (in this order):

name of interviewee, inverted (ie Jones, Fred)
any further identification of the inverviewee
year
title or subject of interview
place and date of interview
any details on the availablity of the text of the interview (eg tape
recording in author's posession)

It also says "Should you need to acknowledge your use of a a database or
an item retrieved from some computer service, the citation can follow
the format used for print items."  It should, of course, include the
precise URL - not just http://nsw.uca.org.au/

Have a look at http://www.une.edu.au/aso/resources.htm#referencing

Try also your own institution's website.

Hope this helps.

Judy

Hello to all those students out there.

I'm up to the bibliography for an assignment, and it consists of
interviews, and bits of information from the uca website.  They're not
articles though, just descriptions.

Do you know how I  write them up for a bibliography?
