    Chill man, you aren't even in any problem, you have a few strikes and you will be notified by a cleaner before getting "listed" s far there i no problem apart from the fact the content is sourced from somewhere, if it's your own blog its no problem and cheetah will just cite that every time to which you reply , yes thank you :D

    Just don't worry, take it slow, learn the ropes and don't be so quick to burst.

    I'm just saying some hints, if there is a problem there will be a response below the bot from somebody on the cleaners saying don't plagerise and this is serious, then you can respond like that no worries :P

    As it stands there is no way and you shouldn't burn your cards,

    Ok the usual way goes like this, 1st get verified(not bound to do it, but you will get some points in case you do make a mistake) so people treat you like a person :|

    When you post make sure to link to where you've read when it's outside the ecosystem and the material isn't original/licensed to you.

    The problem here is that the text seems perfectly identical which can be viewed as stolen, people care about originality here and a lot for it, but still you can use outside sources, reworks and whatever, information is all out there anyways, so you are free to use it, just don't copy paste and be careful with the pictures too, some can't be used for commercial purposes, I'm not really read on licensing and whatever here, but there are public open source sites for pictures like pixabay.com , most of the times it's not a problem, but when you use photography from a real world and therefore using copyrighted content, either don't use it, say you have permission, link to the author(some license are BY(so use but attribute) ) and so on, just keep in mind cheetah might get you if you use text and someone might flag you if you are using known copyrighted material and making money off of it,

    so that's it in short. Following you since you are a new guy, and i you have questions and I can't answer here(I'm online every day, but still I can miss something) add me on chat with the same name, you can find a link in the side menu on the top right side, there is a steemit chat on there :)

    Good luck once again you still haven't been "charged" for your "mistake" don't worry if you do the "ban" can still be lifted, and yeah don't feel bad there is a lot to explain and I don't want to get into everything in one go.

    Example

    this and that the other day I saw this then I read about culture
    Source ... http://www.livescience.com/21478-what-is-culture-definition-of-culture.html

    It appears that li originated in Africa and those are the oldest cultures

    The continent of Africa is essential to all cultures. Human life originated on this continent and began to migrate to other areas of the world around 60,000 years ago, according to the Natural History Museum.

    Quotes are made by using > in the start of the new line also check the markdown styling guide :) and that's it in short that way cheetah will still link to the article if you use the text but you can say yes I hope there is no problem and it won't happen again I will try more next time and learn from this, WHEN a cleaner asks :P_

    Either than that learn the ropes, improve your english, get some markdown experience and start blogging away, check the comments of people, grow out of your "shell" and good luck :)
