@steemchiller, @stef1, @kiwi-crypto - I have wondered before about creating a "plagiarism community" of some sort as a destination to highlight plagiarism. We can then share our reports, etc. in a consolidated place and increase visibility of our no-tolerance approach. What do you think?
Hopefully, also discovering others who are taking action too - I honestly thought I was the only one weeding out this content and was rather disheartened by it.
I'm up to 22 plagiarised articles since my Thursday update although @ghaffar093 accounts for half of these - he has a 100% plagiarised publishing record, has been smashed down to 15 already (with the power I have) and needs ending.
It's created and I've added you all as mods - the admin option wasn't there so could do with some help on that one. If you'd like me to remove you, or if you're able to remove yourself then I'm happy to do that. Or if anybody else should be added.
@kiwi-crypto, @chriddi - Please destroy this fool. Look at the comments for the last dozen posts and he's just shat in my beloved World of Football community.
Cool, I'll get on with the community later when I'm feeling less rough. I'll go with the classic "Steem Cleaners" name so it covers plagiarism, spamming and anything else that rears its ugly head.
I'll make us all admins initially (including steemcurator01) and we can adapt it as we go and see if delegation's possible (not that I understand delegation yet).
Good move, although I would suggest using a new name rather than Steem Cleaners - to save confusion with the old operation.
The previous Steem Cleaners might also claim their name has been plagiarised !
Maybe it would be worth keeping a regularly updated list of plagiarists (alphabetically sorted for easy finding) pinned at the top of the community for quick reference.
Also if a separate community account is established for publishing updated lists etc, it can be voted for and delegated to to build up some voting (downvoting) power.
The previous Steem Cleaners might also claim their name has been plagiarised !
I am also having a similar opinion on this.
Regarding any spam/plagiarism cases, from India, we will update you here either on a weekly or bi-weekly basis.
We need to build a strong alliance to curb rising cases of spam/plagairism, and need to keep an updated curated directory to be used as a reference for different community leaders and CRs.
The previous Steem Cleaners might also claim their name has been plagiarised !
The irony 🤣🤣 I hadn't thought about that!!!
I'll change it to something @kiwi-crypto will appreciate until we come up with a better name.
I'll have to research community accounts as I'm not familiar with them at the moment. Hopefully it's something that can have shared access.
It crossed my mind that as part of Achievement 3, we could reference this community as somewhere that you can highlight plagiarism/spamming safely. @cryptokannon - is this something you'd be happy with and think would be beneficial to newcomers?
Also if a separate community account is established for publishing updated lists etc, it can be voted for and delegated to to build up some voting (downvoting) power.
I can't find anywhere that says how to do this, can somebody point me in the right direction please?
EDIT: cryptokannon has solved this so I'll try to create a 2nd account with a menacing name. I'll let you know how I get on.
I'll keep it fairly tame with "plagiarism-stopper"
EDIT: name too long.
UPDATE: cryptokannon has solved my problem and "endingplagiarism" will be joining us shortly. the-gorilla can then return to his happy life, writing about fun things like Football. For 1 week. Then the-baby-gorilla will appear and end him.
I think they mean to create another steem account for publishing those lists, so they can upvote and delegate to this account. So start to think the name for this account that will be fear of by those incoming spammers/plagiarists 😄
Thanks so much for this great work. The highlighted Spammers and plagiarists should now be ashamed. It's time to kick them out of the steemit Crypto academy.
For now the blacklist option should be effectively utilized by all professors. Repeat offenders should never waste our valuable time on their spammy and plagiarized content.
I kindly suggest that the steemit team should create a separate account for downvoting spam and plagiarized content. We need to see some reputations of repeat offenders going to negatives such that whoever sees those accounts' content, just ignores them.
Plagiarism and spammy content are NOT tolerated on steemit
Excellent work, thank you @sapwood and all the Crypto Professors who helped gather the information for this list.
Hopefully all Community Leaders will pay careful attention to the names in this list.
@steemchiller, @stef1, @kiwi-crypto, @the-gorilla - you may be interested in this list.
Thank you, this is very helpful indeed.

We do need a consolidated approach with some SP like steemit delegate to other projects
That account now has a rep of 9 :)

Like I said, I'm feeling rough as **** so haven't created any content yet but we're good to go.

It's only going one way for ghaffar.

I found this but the links doesn't work 😥

Thanks for you help @cryptokannon - do I need another phone number to create another account? If not, I'll plough on but I thought I did.
Mosquito squisher doesn't quite cut it. I wonder if PLAGIARIST DESTROYER brings a hint of fear 🤣
Sorry @sapwood, @bestofindia - I've inadvertently hijacked your thread!!
Introducing to you...

Naughty accounts 👿
I removed any remaining rewards i could find :)
Thank you so much.
I appreciate it.
We will pay attention to all this spamming/plagiarism action in steem. Thanks so much for letting us know.
@the-gorilla should also see this.
You have done a great job, my friend...
Thank you.
