Chicago, APA and MLA are different citation standards. At the end of books or papers you will see a bunch of references and they are all in the same format, these standards dictate the order of information (eg title, author, chapter, volume, page number...)
Your disdain for these manuals of style is blatantly visible in your omission of the serial comma, which all three recommend using ಠ_ಠ
All my homies love the Oxford comma
Ha! My background is science, honestly I just plug everything into endnote and it does it for me I can't be bothered to learn the format.
AP doesn't
Ah. Never heard of these. Thanks for the explanation.

Not really. I am just not from the US so we use different standards
