What Is Plagiarism?
Plagiarism in my own terms is defined as the copying of one’s idea, text, and creative idea without the permission from the owner. Plagiarism may be intentional or unintentional and this may lead to regulatory actions by the real owner.

The Oxford University defines plagiarism as presenting someone else’s work or idea as your own, with or without their consent by incorporating it into your work without full acknowledgement.

I have come to understand that in this platform plagiarism is strictly prohibithed and it also brings about severe actions taken towards the person involved.
The steemit platform thrives on origanlity and quality content to be produced by each of its member. The platform also has a community which flags on plagiarism which makes this platform more unique & effective.
How To Stop Plagiarism.
From my own individual experience, I feel this are the steps that should be taken to crub / stop plagiarism
• Always Learn to paraphrase your content.

• Always Cite Your Sources. When making an idea that’s not yours, add a citation in your writing that helps identify the full name of the source and also the date with which it was published.

• Always Present Your Own Idea. Instead Of Collecting someone’s idea, try to present yours. ask yourself delicate & antiquate questions. Try to keep your mind in check and try not to allude someone’s idea.

• Make Use Of Plagiarism Checkers. When conducting a project or topic some words might stick with you that you mistakenly put them in your writing. Try to make use of online tools which help to check plagiarism.

What Is Content Etiquette?
Firstly etiquette is coined from a French word “ESTIQUE” which means to attach or stick. Etiquette is also describes as the requirement of behaviour according to the conventions of society.

In my own words content etiquette is the means of applying a formal rules to a professional writing or content.

Citation of A Source.
A source can be well cited when you add links of the source of the content you sourced from. If definitions are used then, links should be placed immediately after the text/words with very appropriate and essential markdown style.

The examples of citation I know are.
•Modern Language Association (MLA)
•American Psychological Association (APA)

Having completed the required Achievement 3, I'll call upon the steem greeters: @cryptokannon, @yohan2on, @ngoenyi to help check if I've successfully met the full requirements of the task.

Thank You
