Everything we Interact with, In this world is based on some rules and Regulations. Or we can say that we have to follow some protocols to sustain in that particular scope.

The same Integers are followed on Social platforms like steemit. This Writing or posting platform has some pathways and Etiquette that we, as a member should follow. One of them Is Content Etiquettes.

I have understood it through the post by @cryptokannon.

WHAT IS PLAGIARISM?

Plagiarism simply means *** to use someone else's ideas, words, or any prototype (in a larger context) and present it as your own WITHOUT GIVING CREDIT TO THE ORIGINATOR/AUTHOR. It is Unethical and Immoral and is even Illegal in many developed countries and resulting in disciplinary action against it.

AFFECTS

Plagiarism almost breaches and violates the integrity of academics and general ethics. It can result in suspension, fines, and even Imprisonment based on the context and intensity of the circumstances.

TYPES OF PLAGIARISM

Some common Types of Plagiarism are as follows:
source

* Direct Plagiarism

Coping and presenting others' context exactly word to word without even adding/altering anything.

* Self Plagiarism

Pasting your own previous content of part of it for further distinct uses.

* Accidental Plagiarism.

Copying someone's content accidentally or when we forget to apply citaion

HOW TO AVOID PLAGIARISM?

In this regard, there are some patterns and etiquette described here: CONTENT ETIQUETTE.
Most of the time we use the words of others or through any source to support our things but usually, we forget to give credit to original authors Intentionally or unintentionally. for that, I have learned to apply Citation.

Citation Markdowns

For Instance, Let's say that we are supporting our content with the quote inducted from any site, It is mandatory to show that from where you have picked up that quote and attaching the link of that is much recommended and preferred rather than just stating the name of the source.

“Just like the drone, most plagiarists have no skill to improve, industry to acquire, or taste to select. They imprudently prefer already made honey from the hive.” By Walter source

Same as If there is a picture insourced, then attaching its link is recommended.

My Experience With Plagiarism

I have seen many people who get caught while doing plagiarism, most of them can't even achieve the purpose for which they were doing plagiarism I.e copying content of others without their concern and pretending to be theirs.

For me plagiarism is a bedrock that could kill the skills of any person, Plagiarism will not only give you a bad reputation but also will weak your skills of self Creation. I consider it a crime to breach the rules and regulations of a common being.

That's it for the Achievement 3

I have followed @cryptokannon Guidance for the Achievement 3, Now with the approval of this achievement, I will be working over to achievement 4.

I have found that @steemcurator01 @steemcurator02 acknowledges newcomers and provides them guidance for their ease and I am expecting the same support towards me.
