Achievement 3: Content Etiquette & Understanding Plagiarism
Assalam-o-Alaikum everyone. I am @jalal945, and today I am excited to share my Achievement 3 post. This task is a vital part of the Newcomers' journey as it focuses on the rules of Steemit and the significance of creating original, high quality content.
👤 My Verification Picture
Below is my verification photo for Achievement 3. I am fully committed to following all the rules and guidelines of the Steemit community to maintain a healthy ecosystem.
🚫 What is Plagiarism?
Plagiarism means using another person's work, words, or images without their permission and without giving them proper credit. Steemit is a "Proof of Brain" platform where only your original hard work and creative thinking are valued and rewarded.
Key things I have learned about Plagiarism:
| Type of Plagiarism | Description |
|---|---|
| Direct Copying | Copy-pasting text from another website or user. |
| Image Theft | Using someone else's photo without mentioning the source. |
| Lack of Citation | Not providing a link to the original author's work. |
🔗 How to Correctly Mention a Source
If we need to use an image from a website like Pixabay, we must provide a direct source link. This ensures we are respecting the original creator. For example, I have used the following image from Pixabay, and I have provided the source link correctly below it:
✅ My Final Commitment
I promise to always share original content on Steemit and to fully respect the copyright of others. I will ensure that my contributions add value to the community.
"I have read and understood the Steemit Etiquette on the Steemit Community and will do my best to embrace them."
Thank you so much for reading my post! 😊❤️🌹
