Achievement3 by@queengina on content Etiquette
After the successful completion of my achievement2 I gladly and grateful move to achievement3 talking about CONTENT ETIQUETTE ( plagiarism) .
In my little understanding I will say that:
PLAGIARISM :can be defined or explained as the act of using someone work without proper reference to the source or the act of using someone work as yours without proper permission from the original owner.
Source
This word plagiarism has done so much harm to innocent people than good.plagiarism is a very bad act that is being fought against in our society and it punishable in schools, offices etc
This act is punishable because as a person who be happy to seat down and watch the work in which you have put so much effort into being accredited to someone else .
TYPES OF PLAGIARISM
We have so many types of plagiarism but I will be talking about just the few 5 I understand
- Self plagiarism
*Accidental plagiarism
*Paraphrasing plagiarism
*Verbatim plagiarism
*Mosaic plagiarism
Self plagiarism: this plagiarism occurs when someone's work is copied identically without reference to the owner .
Accidental plagiarism:these occurs as a result of someone's negelegence towards citing the source of the information used
Paraphrasing plagiarism:these occurs when the person using an article fails to properly appreciate the author of the article.
Verbatim plagiarism: as we all know verbatim is copying word for word so we can equally say that verbatim plagiarism is copying someone work word for word without the owners permission and this is common in school setting.
Mosiac plagiarism: these type of plagiarism is also common in colleges ,it is the act of copying a phrase from the source with using quotation mark.
COURSE OF PLAGIARISM
greed
Bitterness
Laziness
Not having the zeal to work
WAYS IN WHICH PLAGIARISM CAN BE CONTROLLED
Plagiarism can be controlled or prevented by :
using of quotation mark when copying a phrase
citing of an author work or citing the source of the information.
Source
In this vain we can say that citation is the act of letting people know the original source of the material in use by you, telling them that you are not the original owner of the work .
In conclusion I want to thank #criptokannon for the guide line In writing the achievement3 post
I have read and understand the STEEMIT ETIQUETTE on steemit communities and I will do my best to embrace them
Give an example of citation by using a sentence or phrase not of your authorship , and give its link from where you have taken it. Use block quote to highlight the cited passage.

I don't see any cited passage.

You must use textual citation only then i will be able to validate your achievement post.
Done!!
