Just because you had to learn to format the article does not mean that you put in the work to create the content and deserve the benefits of being the author.

You did not even write up a review of the article, you simply formatted the article in its entirety just to fit Steemit.

Have you informed the author that you are currently making money off of his content?

If you want to cultivate quality work like such then perhaps try to influence the original author into signing up for Steemit and posting their work.

I do not agree with people simply posting youtube clips or photos or anything that isn't original content with just the posting. I've seen reviews and such which contain content that is not original, but there is more to the content than just a minute introduction. However, I am not out seeking content to flag, and you can check the block history all you want to check for certain. Someone had shared your post and I checked it out and disagree that non-original content should be shared without the original author's permission. Nor can you argue that nobody here would ever see the content without your capability of sharing it here, that is logically unknowable.

My flag is coming from an author of purely original content and from the stance that you should be contacting the original author for permission and showing evidence of such.
