Hello everyone, very good... Around here I am again wishing you much success by the time you read this post.

On this occasion, I am going to talk about a very delicate and important issue, it can even be punished by law: Plagiarism

source

"Plagiarism" is simply taking something from someone else and passing it off as us without even thanking the author for his work.

It is very easy to take things from others and make them our own but sooner or later someone will discover you and in case it does not happen and nobody knows that you are a fraud your personal level is very depressing, that only tells yourself that you are not able to do anything for yourself. (What a shame)

Many people opt for plagiarism because it is the easiest way to create content: graphic designers, web, musicians, writers and composers.

Not only is this action seen in documents, it is also present in films, documentaries, video clips, songs where great characters have been involved throughout history.

Type Of Plagiarism

---

Direct Plagiarism

Direct plagiarism is the word-for-word transcription of a section of someone else’s work, without attribution and without quotation marks. The deliberate plagiarism of someone else's work is unethical, academically dishonest, and grounds for disciplinary actions, including expulsion.

Self Plagiarism

Self-plagiarism occurs when a student submits his or her own previous work, or mixes parts of previous works, without permission from all professors involved. For example, it would be unacceptable to incorporate part of a term paper you wrote in high school into a paper assigned in a college course. Self-plagiarism also applies to submitting the same piece of work for assignments in different classes without previous permission from both professors.

Mosaic Plagiarism

Mosaic Plagiarism occurs when a student borrows phrases from a source without using quotation marks, or finds synonyms for the author’s language while keeping to the same general structure and meaning of the original. Sometimes called “patch writing,” this kind of paraphrasing, whether intentional or not, is academically dishonest and punishable – even if you footnote your source!

Accidental Plagiarism

Accidental plagiarism occurs when a person neglects to cite their sources, or misquotes their sources, or unintentionally paraphrases a source by using similar words, groups of words, and/or sentence structure without attribution. (See example for mosaic plagiarism.) Students must learn how to cite their sources and to take careful and accurate notes when doing research. (See the Note-Taking section on the Avoiding Plagiarism page.) Lack of intent does not absolve the student of responsibility for plagiarism. Cases of accidental plagiarism are taken as seriously as any other plagiarism and are subject to the same range of consequences as other types of plagiarism.

These are the reasons that clearly tell us that if we want to grow here in the community, you must be as original as possible. It doesn't matter if you are not a professional or an expert in something, the important thing is that you try it and be yourself. In fact I think the most important thing is your effort and commitment in everything you create or design.

But let's see another possible way to use it as a learning guide or if we want to take the content of someone else, well, it is valid as long as we know how to recognize that it is not ours, nothing costs us to give credit to those who deserve it.
