What is plagiarism?

Plagiarism is a term used when an author copies the work of another author without their consent or without crediting the author.

So more simply, when someone plagiarizes, he takes the work of other content creators and pass them as his own creation.

Types of plagiarism.
There are different common types of plagiarism:

A. Complete plagiarism

What are the causes of plagiarism?

Firstly Content creators who plagiarize mostly lack the skill to make their own quality content.
Authors spend a lot of individual effort when making their content because they want the content to be of value when it goes out into the public.

Secondly, people who plagiarize want to steal an author’s content because it has made lots of profit.
When an author creates a content that has made lots of profit the one who steals it then realizes that he can make profit from it.

Avoiding plagiarism

Firstly, when you use another author’s work you have to credit the author.

Secondly, always cite the source you have taken the content from.

This is the little bits I have to say about plagiarism on steemit.

Remarks
I have read and understood the steemit etiquette on steemit community and will do my best to embrace them at the end of this task post.

CTRL C + CTRL V is still plagiarism.
