Achievement 3 by @mememaster711 | Task : Content Etiquette

Hola a todos,

Welcome to my Achievements 3 task. I'll be talking about plagiarism, the different types of plagiarism, how to avoid it, using citations, and giving credit to pictures taken from websites.

Plagiarism is like taking someone else's stuff or thoughts and saying they're yours, without saying who actually made them. This is also called straight-up stealing.

According to : https://www.scribbr.com/category/plagiarism/

Plagiarism means using someone else’s work without giving them proper credit.

Copying someone else's work and pretending it's your own is a serious problem. In many places, you can get in trouble for it, and in some, it's considered cheating in school. Plagiarism doesn't promote hard work because it takes credit away from the real author and doesn't give them the credit they deserve for their smart thinking.

SELF PLAGIARISM: --- Self plagiarism happens when an author uses parts of their old work again without saying where it came from, and without telling the people in charge or the people reading it. This type of plagiarism is common among writers who want to fill up their writing. Self plagiarism is also something you can get in trouble for.

COMPLETE PLAGIARISM:

This is when a person copies someone else's writing and pretends they wrote it. Doing this is like lying to readers about who really wrote it, and it makes real writers sad because others are getting credit for their hard work.

ACCIDENTAL PLAGIARISM:

Accidental plagiarism occurs when someone forgets to mention where they got their information or accidentally copies someone else's work without realizing it. This can happen to students who don't mean to copy but still get into trouble for it.

VERBATIM PLAGIARISM:

This kind of plagiarism happens when a writer copies exactly what another author wrote, without using quotation marks or giving credit to the original author. This is called academic dishonesty and can lead to strict consequences in academic settings.

CONCLUSION: In conclusion, Copying someone else's work and pretending it's yours is wrong. Writers should be original and work hard. Plagiarism can discourage writers and take away their credit. Avoid it.
