• What do we understand about Plagiarism?
  Plagiarism is copying the content of others word to word without giving the credit to the real author.
  It is considered a crime. Contents are not limited to only the articles or paragraphs, but they can be images, videos, songs. Plagiarized content has no value and usually, it is flagged by other users and lower down our reputation.

Types of Plagiarism
There are many types of plagiarism. Let's discuss it one by one.
a). Self Plagiarism: When a writer uses his own work again and again without giving attribution to it. It is called Self Plagiarism.

b). Accidental Plagiarism: When a writer copies the phrase unintentionally it is called Accidental Plagiarism. Sometimes, after reading any content of others, the lines are stored in our subconscious mind and we write it in making our content. This comes under plagiarism.

c). Direct Plagiarism: When a writer copy word by word from others content without giving him credit comes under Direct Plagiarism.

d). Paraphrasing Plagiarism: When a writer spins the content or rephrase the lines of others content. It is called Paraphrasing Plagiarism.

e). Source-based Plagiarism: When a writer gives the credit to the author but while giving the source he created some mistakes in providing the link. It comes under Inaccurate authorship.

f). Complete Plagiarism: When a writer erases the name of a real author and publish the work with his name. It is called Complete Plagiarism.

• Now I will copy some lines and describe how to cite content to avoid plagiarism.
  To cite content, it is necessary,

1. To quote that copied sentence with "" or formatted using > markup.
2. To provide a very close link to the original content.

I am showing it by copying a paragraph.

"We’ve all heard the story. A young Isaac Newton is sitting beneath an apple tree contemplating the mysterious universe. Suddenly – boink! -an apple hits him on the head. “Aha!” he shouts, or perhaps, “Eureka!” In a flash, he understands that the very same force that brought the apple crashing toward the ground also keeps the moon falling toward the Earth and the Earth falling toward the sun: gravity."source
