Content Etiquette refers to the form of behavior we should put on while creating content. The number one and most important instruction given here to avoid plagiarism.
Plagiarism is a word I have been hearing about long before I even started blogging for Steemit. It is an act (intentionally or unintentionally) of copying someone else's work, idea, or whatever, and presenting it as your own without taking permission from the real owner.
Let's take an example from the Steemit platform. If a Steemit user devouts his/her time to research and produce content out of his own brain, he/she is the owner of that task.
If I go to copy that same task of that Steemit friend, and posting it as my own, then I have plagiarized, and would fa e the consequences that follows.
Plagiarism Types Includes:
Direct Plagiarism
This is one of the boldest type of plagiarism I have heard of, and it involves one user copy the entire work of another user, without changing or making any difference. Such contents are completely duplicated 100%, and I think it's done as a result of laziness.
Self Plagiarism
Plagiarism is plagiarism whether you are doing it from someone else's post or from your own previous post. That's what self plagiarism is all about, an act of submitting your previous post or taking out some important parts of your previous post while creating a new one.
Mosaic kind of plagiarism
This is another type of plagiarism that we must have to be careful about. On this type of plagiarism, a user copies another user's work without citing it's source or no use of quotation for difference.
Unintentional Plagiarism
As we could here it from the name, this type of plagiarism isn't done intentionally, but it's usually done by mistake or accident. Sometimes it might be failure to include the source of an image or information. Nevertheless, whether a plagiarism is intentional or unintentional, it is punishable by law, and we must try as much as possible to avoid them.
Information or text that must be included in your task should be in quotes (“”), or better still you can equally use this markup code (>) to show the difference.
For example

According to this STEEM bluepaper, “steem provides a scalable blockchain protocol for publicly accessible and immutable content, along with a fast and fee-less digital token (STEEM)”Source.”
In Conclusion
We must know that plagiarism is a virus to our blogging life here in Steemit, and we must try as much as possible to avoid it. We must cite sources of our ideas and informations to avoid being caught plagiarizing.
I have read and understood the Etiquette of the Steemit Community and will do my best to embrace them.
Best Regards,
