7. If e dey necessary, include the correct links and references.
Especially if you copy some sentences and not originally from you, it is good to include the link because if the link is not included, it would be regarded as plagiarism and this can lead to ban. Some newbies do not like to reference, thinking not referencing it will earn them merit, but instead their account would be banned. There are a lot of posts that are referenced and yet given merits.
Every reasonable person would know that whenever you borrow someone's work or idea, the need to reference and acknowledge the original author is important. Else it would otherwise be considered as theft. Although not everyone is aware of these and that's why there's need to formally educate them, because some of them do it out of ignorance and mediocrity but still suffer the consequences because ignorance of the law isn't an excuse. So they should be fully educated on these facts in order to avoid being penalized and claiming they were ignorant of the situation.
You dey correct for this things wey you write so, and you make am look very interesting to write am for our native language wey be pidgin language but I for like may you wey don write am so make you teach less rather learn and practice this things wey you teach so.
Who no get no dey choke hand for pocket. So you do your own first no be to teach yet cuz na u suppose learn for now.
Me too I dey learn now na why me I no dey teach yet.
I get your point my Gee, but my purpose of the post no be really to teach anybody but to share the small knowledge wey I don gather so, because I no know person wey go need to read this stuff. Na true say me I still be Newbie and I understand wetin my fellow Newbie go dey face for the platform that's why I say make I update them with the small knowledge me I don gather make e for benefit every newbies wey buy the idea too. I know say me I get so many things to learn as newbie but if you check am well, nothing sweet pass to grow in knowledge dey still dey carry your OP them along, this life na one, nothing sweet pass to carry people wey dey your level along no be to hide update OP. Shey you get.
All these you bring come here nah salient points but the question be say, them go gree adhere to these tins? You know say you fit take horse go stream but can never force am to drink water .
Wetin you talk nah true talk, one of my friend talk say God no get strength to push people make them hustle na e make e create poverty, lol na joke be that but if you reason am well, small sense dey inside, them no dey force people to hustle, you no fit force them to adhere to the rules, but surely, anybody wey choose to adhere go chop the benefits, so anybody wey feel like say na to dey spam spam everywhere with copy and paste, that mean e never ready to learn and we already know say na through learning people dey take grow.
Op I like as say you na newbie and you come carefully state this kind of lovely point wey fit make person become a very good or better poster for this forum, but I get one good question to ask you, I hope say you sef go follow this principles wey you state oo?
Thank you for the kind words you talk, and yes e no go make sense say I go come dey tell people to do wetin I no dey practice, at least if you check my previous posts, you go see say I no dey spam, no be say I dey brag no, but I feel say I dey try my best to be a good poster make people for dey learn from me too, although I still get plenty things to learn but I know say as long as I put in hard work and resilience, I go achieve my goal.
Op, you don try for this post to educate the newbies on how to create posts wey go give them merit for the forum. Waiting I come to understand for this forum how to get merit na when you create a post wey people see say through your post wey you create people don use am guide their self not to lose money for the crypto world. For instance, if we never know say scammers dey run people fake transfers for P2P trade and people don come lose their money well well because of the fake transfer for P2P trade. If you are the first person to create a post wey go teach us how to detect fake transfers for P2P trade in this forum, I swear people will give you better merit for sharing such an idea.
You don talk am finish my fellow Ogba Man. But some people just feel like say na just about to carry copy and paste article take spam the whole place, I just believe say anybody wey wan learn go learn and as e give room to learning e don also give room to growth and development.
