The official position of the Ellen G. White Estate is that when quoting from Ellen White's writings, it is important to provide proper attribution. This typically includes mentioning her name and the specific source (book, article, or letter) along with the page or paragraph number. Proper attribution ensures clarity, accuracy, and respect for intellectual property. While informal references in conversation may not always require her name, in published or formal contexts, her name and the source should be cited.
