As of May 2018, several of the databases subscriptions have edited their citation generators to reflect the new formatting of MLA 8, but it is inadvisable to use them without checking the newest manual. Here is a style guide link from MLA showing their recommended core template: https://style.mla.org

Use generators at your own risk. Please double-check with the citation guide provided by your instructor.
