Achievement 3 : content etiquette by @grandm
Good day, my fellow steemians how are you doing, hope you are doing good this is my Achievement 3 post and I will be talking about Content Etiquette.
Definition of Plagiarism :
It is defined as the process or practice of using another person's ideas or work and pretending that it is your own without acknowledging the private source you got it from.
There are many types of Plagiarism but I will only explain five to you guys and it's essential to check plagiarism online and to avoid it.
Direct plagiarism
This is the most commonly the crime of Plagiarism involves adopting parts from the writing to another writers without proper mention of the source, often the person copying from the text does not change even a single word. The plagiarist can also change parts of sentence or replace some of the words with his/her own
Global plagiarism
Global plagiarism means taking a work done by someone else and presenting it as your own. If you get someone else to write and essay or assignment for you or if you find a text online and submit it as your own work you are committing plagiarism.
Because it involving deliberately and directly lying about the authorship of work,the one of most types of Plagiarism and can have consequences
Paraphrasing Plagiarism
Means rephrasing a piece of text in your own words paraphrasing without citation is the most common types of Plagiarism
Paraphrasing itself is not plagiarism so long as you properly cite your source. However, paraphrasing becomes plagiarism when you read a source and then write it's key points as if they were your own ideas.
Verbatim Plagiarism (copy&paste)
You commit verbatim plagiarism when you directly copy from a source and paste it into your document without attribution. If the structure and most of the words are exactly same as in the original work, then it is verbatim plagiarism even if you delete or change a couple of words here and there.
Mosaic Plagiarism (patchwork plagiarism)
Mosaic plagiarism (also referred to as patchwork plagiarism or incremental plagiarism) means copying phrases, passages and concepts from different sources and putting them together to make a text. This includes slightly rephrasing passage while keeping meaning of the same words and structure as the original
