Good morning steem family….
In all time zone, I hope you all are doing well. I completed my achievement 2 few days back ( https://steemit.com/hive-172186/@nsicash/achievement-2-basic-security-on-steemit-by-nsicash )
I composed my achievement 3 which is on
PLAGIARISM, hope this will bring awareness against plagiarism.
WHAT IS PLAGIARISM
through the teachings of @cryptokannon I understand plagiarism as representing someone’s else’s work or ideas as your own without their consent or proper referencing.
WHY DO WE NEED TO SITE PROPER REFERENCING AS STEEMIT USERS?
Creativity and originality of personal work is one of STEEMIT most important norms. It is a crime to copy and paste a person's work without referencing the author and still take credit for it.Referencing gives proper credit to the author of the ideas and this shows you respect their ideas or thoughts.
TYPES OF PLAGIARISM
Direct Plagiarism
This is the direct copy and paste of someone else’s work, without referencing or citation. Being involved in plagiarism shows the person is unethical and indiscipline.
Self Plagiarism
This is sort of copying former work or adds previous work without permission from their teacher or the receiver.
Accidental Plagiarism
This happens if a person unintentionally neglects to include citation, write the wrong sources, or in deliberately paraphrases a source by using same words, or sentences structure without attributing the author.
Mosaic Plagiarism
This happens when when a sentence is borrowed from a source and also not using quotation marks, or finds similar phrases for the original work language while keeping to the similar general structure of the work and meaning of the original work.
HOW TO CITE A SOURCE
A link with a link (url) to every work and which is written or composed by you should be placed at the end of every work. Every sentence copied has to be written in quotes or by the use of mark up.
With the help from @crptokannon in the newcomers community, I was able to understand and make my achievement 3 post a success.
I have seen and have obliged to follow the steemit etuquete on the steemit community and will do my best to follow them.
I have read and understood the steemit content. Etiquette and will surely abide to them
