What is plagiarism?

"[ Plagiarism is the representation of another author's language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions as one's own original work. In educational contexts, there are differing definitions of plagiarism depending on the institution. Plagiarism is considered a violation of academic integrity and a breach of journalistic ethics.]http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism&ved=2ahUKEwiDhaKgkOzxAhVDsKQKHfhsCqkQmhMwDXoECAoQAg&usg=AOvVaw0r9fgqYBM8YQu-QTDsE960

Types of plagiarism

"[Most commonly, the crime of plagiarism involves adopting parts from the writing of another writer 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 sentences or replace some of the words with his/her own. However, it also comes under the crime of plagiarism. ]

"[Among the different forms of plagiarism, direct plagiarism is the most harmful one. When the plagiarist copies and paste the text from someone else’s work and neglects to cite the source or remove quotation marks, then it is direct plagiarism.
In Steemit, plagiarism cam lead to downvoting and other consequences.]http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plagiarism&ved=2ahUKEwiDhaKgkOzxAhVDsKQKHfhsCqkQmhMwDXoECAoQAg&usg=AOvVaw0r9fgqYBM8YQu-QTDsE960
