The given MLA citation for the book "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald is actually correct. Here's why: 1. The author's name is correctly formatted in the standard MLA style, which is last name, first name. In this case, "Fitzgerald, F. Scott" follows this format accurately. 2. The title of the book, "The Great Gatsby," is properly placed after the author's name, as it should be in an MLA citation for a book. 3. Including a URL is not a requirement for MLA citations of books. Since this is a citation for a print book, there is no need for a URL. Therefore, the given citation "Fitzgerald, F. Scott. The Great Gatsby. Scribner, 2004" is correct in terms of the author's name format, the order of information, and the absence of a URL.
