Missing title
Sometimes a source has no clear title -- this can happen with sources such as tables or maps generated from searches within some databases.
In such cases, you should write a very brief description of the resource within square brackets containing information that would help your reader find or recreate the same source (table, map, etc.) For example, your square brackets might include the variables you searched for to create a table.
Example: [Potato chips personally eaten most often: Lay's Lightly Salted, report type: demographics, base: British Columbia 12+].
