Everyone errs even professors, apart from you and few professors, many actually spin their work from wikipedia with no new knowledge added to the students. Is there any policy guiding professors who err?

You can give the post link and your findings(if you feel uncomfortable, then you can also provide all those details privately over discord sapwood#2079). We will investigate. As I said earlier it is applicable to all, even for me too.

I still stand on my opinion that the laws guiding greylist and black list be checked if steemit is truly a decentralized system.

It sounds a little weird Mam. It's like.... Hey, you do not allow repeat offenders, ahh...you are centralized....You allow repeat offenders, you are the most decentralized platform in line with the spirit of Bockchain.

Tell me Mam, just name any single platform where it is giving a second chance to a plagiarist in a Competition, not just a decentralized platform, just anyone. Even the centralized one too, you can even consider Medium?

Everyone errs even professors

Mam, I would repeat again, plagiarism is intellectual dishonesty.
