We have updated the document-
Reference list entry:
AquaSPE. (2026, July). Data centers and water: Hype vs. reality [Special report]. TheWaterNetwork.com. [URL if published online]
In-text citations:
Parenthetical: (AquaSPE, 2026)
Narrative: AquaSPE (2026)
A couple of notes:
Since no individual author is credited, the corporate/organizational author (AquaSPE, distributed via TheWaterNetwork.com) stands in as author, per APA's group-author convention. I will add a specific date rather than just "July 2026,".
The disclaimer inside the document discloses Claude AI assistance in research and drafting. APA doesn't require citing the AI tool as a co-author when an organization takes editorial responsibility for the final content (this differs from citing AI-generated text used verbatim) — the existing "researched and drafted with the assistance of Claude AI" disclaimer already covers that disclosure, so no separate AI citation is needed in the reference list.
