ACHIEVEMENT THREE TASK BY @najsecret. CONTENT ETIQUETTE.

PLAGIARISM

source

Plagiarism is the process of using another individual content or work as your own original work without giving credits to the owner. This is to say, taking articles or writings of different people then claiming its ownership. It's a very bad act and which needs to be avoided because this platform frowns at it.

We have various types of Plagiarism these are,

• GLOBAL PLAGIARISM: This type of plagiarism is the process of using the whole work of another person as your own work. It is termed as a very dangerous form of plagiarism.

• SELF PLAGIARISM: This is the process of using your own work which was done at the beginning of a season or period.

• PARAPHRASING: This is the process using certain tools to make rephrasing of the work or articles of a certain author and then claiming ownership.

• VERBATIM PLAGIARISM: This is the process of taking the work of a different individual directly without giving credits to the original owner.

These acts or processes leads to certain Effects and these are.

• It brings about great failure to the one who committed the crime
• It also brings about low rewards to the work
• It therefore leads to suspension

Moving forward to Citation

CITATION is the process of giving credits to the works which aren't originally written by oneself. That is to say giving acknowledgement to the actual owner of a particular work or articles which were had form different people.

There are some styles that are mostly used in CITATIONS.

These are,

• American Psychological Association
• Chicago Style
• Modern Language Association

In a nut shell, I must say we all try to avoid this act since it is very bad and this great platform doesn't accept it.

I can boldly say I have read and understood the Steemit Etiquette on the Steemit community and therefore will try all my best to embrace them.

Thank you for your attention.
