To decide if something is plagiarised or not many Universities uses a very simple test: Plagiarism Declaration I confirm that the enclosed written work is entirely my own except where explicitly stated otherwise. I declare that wherever I used copying, paraphrasing, summarisations or other appropriate mechanism related to the use of another author's work it has been properly acknowledged in accordance with normal scholarly conventions. I understand that wherever 6 or more consecutive words are extracted from a source they must be acknowledged and 10 consecutive words that are unacknowledged will be regarded as proof of plagiarism.

Plagiarism is both thievary and lying. Another person's spoken or written words which are worth repeating are worth giving the author credit for his creativity, ingenuity, and willingness to share it. I imagine that there are times when two total strangers in verbal and written context come up with the same idea at which time the point of origin (rough drafts, drafts, etc) for each may need to be discovered for authentication of each. Whether in the college arena or on the assembly line or in the streets; plagiarism is a matter of respect and attributable at all levels. You just give credit where it is due.

So why would a christian diminish what was worked for by others? Jruner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
