ACHIEVEMENT 3 BY @talktofaith: MENTOR BY @CRYPTOKANNON || TASK : CONTENT ETIQUETTE
Hi friends. I am back to present my achievement 3, once again.
In this achievement 3, we are on a discuss ; plagiarism as related to our blogging and content creation. So lets walk together as we discuss.
PLAGIARISM
In this achievement 3 I have been thought on how to avoid plagiarism as a blogger. And how to make reference or citation to sources of images or quotes that are not originally mine, when using them in my posts. If you missed that blog, you can check it out Here.
Plagiarism is the presentation of someone else's work, idea or content as one's original work without making reference or citation to the source.
If you are using images or content that is not your own, make sure you are allowed to use it and as well cite the source of the image or content. Using random image from the internet without citations to the source is discouraged.
There several places you can get free images on the internet, which includes:
https://pixabay.com
https://pixels.com
https://shuttersstock.com
https://unsplash.com
CONSEQUENCES OF PLAGIARISM
Plagiarism is never treated lightly in Steemit community. In as much as the community accommodates every content, if you are posting plagiarised or copied content, you can get into legal trouble for violating copyright law.
Plagiarised posts are seen as abuse and will be downvoted by community members.
So to avoid downvotes or getting into trouble;
- First of all ensure you have the right to use such images or content.
- Also make sure that you always cite the sources of your foreign contents and images.
This is the end of our journey on achievement 3 on this post. To read more about plagiarism and abuse, you can visit our Steemit FAQ.

Thank you very much for including the links to Access free pictures. The only requirement for using the free picture is to State the author I guess.

@beckie96830, it's not just stating the authors, rather you make reference to the source by linking up the website, so people any one that clicks on it will be redirected to the web page where you got the information.
Yes. Tot I mentioned that too
