    Why are you calling in Steemcleaners? The partial article is prefaced with the source and then fully cited with a link.

    I am new to Steemit, so I am just trying to understand, if this is plagiarism or not, no hard feelings

    Well the biggest thing with plagiarism is whether or not someone is trying to claim the work of another as their own. That's why I've adopted the format of putting the author or publication ahead of the snippet and a link below when I'm sharing content.

      ALL OF THE FOLLOWING ARE CONSIDERED PLAGIARISM:

      • turning in someone else's work as your own
      • copying words or ideas from someone else without giving credit
      • failing to put a quotation in quotation marks
      • giving incorrect information about the source of a quotation
      • changing words but copying the sentence structure of a source without giving credit
      • copying so many words or ideas from a source that it makes up the majority of your work, whether you give credit or not

      So, according to the last point, this post is plagiarized

      The source actively encourages people to share and syndicate their work on outside sites, that is implied consent.

      What is your problem? I like to share interesting articles I come across that I think people on Steem might be interested in. I use snippets and fully attribute the source.
