Since the Steem Blockchain rewarding your post by producing original content that is from your brain, you are recommended to give citation or source to any of your content that consists of others' works.

Why do we, as Steemit users, need to cite our sources?
To produce and share quality posts with original content. Plagiarised and copy/pasted material, including images, is not original content.
Plagiarism is the appropriation of another person's work, be it text or image, without any attempt to give them credit. The goal of the plagiarist is to make it appear as if themselves are the source of the work.
plagiarism
The Merriam- Webster online dictionary, to plagiarize means to steal and pass off the ideas or words of another person as your own. Simply put. Plagiarism is to commit literary theft.source
Types of plagiarism

1. Complete plagiarism
2. Source based plagiarism
3. Direct plagiarism
4. Self or Auto plagiarism
5. Paraphrasing
6. Inaccurate Authorship
7. Mosaic plagiarism
8. Accidental plagiarism
   Ways to avoid plagiarism
   ▪ cite your source
   ▪ include quotations
   ▪ paraphrase
   ▪ present your own idea
   ▪ use a plagiarism check
   
   SAY NO TO PLAGIARISM
   CITATION
   Citation or referring to a source document in the text of an essay. A citation is the the way you tell your readers that certain materials in your work which came from another source. It gives your readers the information necessary to find that source again including
9. Information about the author
10. The title of the work
11. The date your copy was published.
    Benefits of citation
    When we give credit to the original author by citing sources is the only way to use other people's work without plagiarizing. Other benefits. However, citing sources strengthens your work by lending outside support to your ideas. Citing sources shows the amount of research you have done and remember also that citing doesn't make your work seem less original. It rather emphasize the originality of your own work.
    Citation to me makes a work reliable. And the act of not citing other people's is a crime known as plagiarism. Remember the copyrigh. Published by @iykewatch 19th March, 2021.
    In summary, be original and give credit to other people's work. Maintain social, corporate and steemit etiquette.
    We're all work in progress. Happy reading
