Good morning everyone
Having completed my Achievement1 which was verified by @ngoenyi, and Achievement 2 verified by @sumit71428
I will now be making my Achievement 3 post which is about plagiarism.

Plagiarism in my own understanding is an act of making use of someone's work,images, without the person's consent and approval.
@cryptokannon in her lesson on content Etiquette gives a breakdown of what plagiarism is and the implications.
We are going to see some examples on how we can be original and if need be for the extraction of another person's content, we must try not to encourage plagiarism by seeking the owners consent

Types of plagiarism

*Direct Plagiarism"
This is a process of duplicating someone else work without acknowledging the real owner.
It is an intentional act, and it is unacceptable.

Self Plagiarism

Self-plagiarism this usually happens in a case of a student submitting a project work to a lecturer, and then went on to submit that same project work or part of it to another lecturer without approval from the first lecturer. The student might actually be the real owner, but it is regarded as plagiarism.

Mosaic Plagiarism

Mosaic Plagiarism then happens when a quote is borrowed from a source without proper use of quotation mark or referencing the original owner of the quote. But it is very essential that you acknowledge the source to show that the quote doesn't belong to you.

Accidental Plagiarism

Accidental plagiarism happens when a writer ignorantly or unknowingly refuses to cite the original source of the content provided. It might be a mistake, but it's regarded as plagiarism. So when Providing a document, there is need to carefully review it to avoid plagiarism.

Example 1
In the case of using someone quotes, you must use the markdown >
And as well put a quotation mark and reference the owner.

According to Abraham Lincoln:

Those who look for the bad in people will surely find it.

Example 2
This has to do with using of someone images.
To ensure that you are not indulging in plagiarism. You must attach the image source at the foot of the image.
This will go a long way in ensuring that the image is not originally yours, and anyone who wants to know the real owner should click on the link you are going to provide.

With the link, you are trying to send a message that you are not the original owner of the image.

In the end I will like to say that i have read the content Etiquette which made emphasis on plagiarism on the newcomers community,I will do my best to abide by it.
Thank you @crytokannon for the lessons
