[TIPS] to avoid plagiarism

[CryptocurencyKing]

I made a post on a simple mathematical formula/equation to the definition of plagiarism and how to avoid being a victim of posting plagiarized contents. I'll just quote it here.

I'll keep it simple. There are a lot of ways to plagiarism in this forum, a few of them could be as a result of these factors which includes;

1. They either don't know the meaning of what the word means
2. They simply neglect and go ahead posting without reference to the source or three, they just don't know the rule.
3. They don't know what to post but really need to keep up with activities
4. They don't know the rules and regulations of the forum.

These are most likely the result but the later is not quite helpful as I'll put it simply in an equation;
Plagiarism posting rule:

Plagiarism = copy and paste - source = Ban
Plagiarism evasion = rephrase + source = OP = Active

Is either you you avoid or keep to the above rules respectively or that which is appropriate will be awarded you in accordance to the rules. Simple.

Hope it's accurate and helps.

Not accurate!

1. They either don't know the meaning of what the word means
2. They simply neglect and go ahead posting without reference to the source or three, they just don't know the rule.
3. They don't know what to post but really need to keep up with activities
4. They don't know the rules and regulations of the forum.

1. If they don't understand the word meaning, why they make post? It is time for them to learn English and use the forum in Read-mode only.
2. If they don't know the rule or know it but ignore it, they deserve the ban.
3. If they need to keep up activities (or post quota) but don't have ideas to use, the forum is not for them.
4. It is the same as the 2nd point.

Plagiarism evasion = rephrase + source = OP = Active

Posters don't need to rephrase to be active. They can do terrible rephrase and wipe out the good original meaning.

You can copy, paste, with links and show up your own opinion. No need to rephrase with links without your own opinion.

In the past few days, a couple of linked newbie accounts (similar name) used the following tactic on my local board: They created monolithic-paragraph posts, with content that they copied from a site (originally in English), translated it (presumably via Google Translate) and pasted the result into their posts. No link to the original source, no added value, and fairly inconsistent if you read the posts.

I presume someone was trolling with theses posts, but it’s no longer an issue: they’ve been nuked. They actually qualified both as plagiarism and low value content.

I know what you are talking about.

In August, that user was permanent banned because of plagiarism. Let's look at what he did to plagiarise. I saw his ban appeal in Meta.

For beginners what is technical analysis
He took the article in Arabic from Binance Academy, used Google to translate it into English and say he made that translation. The truth is Binance Academy has an English version for that article.

There are some people who do both ban evasion and plagiarism. One account was banned and use a new account to copy and paste posts from the banned account. The new account breaks 2 rules: ban evasion and plagiarism.

For the new account, it no member finds evidence of the old banned account, it will be considered as plagiarism. If members find evidence of connection between new account and old banned account, it will be considered as ban evasion and plagiarism, nevertheless.

Is this plagiarism?

I can not recall my memory why I missed the topic Plagiarism as a result of cultural differences by Pmalek.

hilariousandco again proposed for a warning on the first plagiarism and don't know right practice to quote and rule but the proposal is for different plagiarism and not all the same for all cases
