You write a post for a client on our platform titled “5 Ways To Increase Your Home's Value”. While researching the post you find a post on another website called “101 Ways To Increase Your Home's Value”. You use the top 5 ways in the article you found in the article you are writing, but you rewrite the content that explains each of the ways. Do we consider this plagiarism?



Answer :

Answer:

Explanation:

Yes, this would generally be considered plagiarism unless you properly attribute the source and clearly indicate that you are using those specific ideas from the other article. Even if you rewrite the content to explain each of the ways differently, using the exact same top 5 ways from another article without proper attribution could still be seen as plagiarism.

To avoid plagiarism in this case, you should:

1. **Paraphrase and Attribute**: Rewrite the explanations of each method in your own words while clearly attributing the ideas to the original article.

 

2. **Provide Proper Credit**: Mention the source from where you derived the top 5 ways to increase home value. You can do this by citing the original article and providing a link to it.

3. **Use Quotation Marks**: If you want to directly quote any specific phrases or sentences from the original article (though not typically necessary for lists like this), use quotation marks and cite the source.

By properly attributing and citing the source, you not only avoid plagiarism but also demonstrate transparency and respect for intellectual property rights.
