    but part of the video deals with overusing a single citation. at what point is one citation too much? say you had a 1000 word article and only two citations where and no ‘original’ text from your own ideas is that plagiarism?

    its the homework meme of ‘change it up a bit so it doesn’t look copied’. i guess there is some effort done to change up the words.

    the Melania Trump example was mentioned in the video, is this plagiarism?

      Where the subject is youtube stuff here it seems that all these plagiarism really are guilty of is being too shit at writing to restate something in their own words.

      There are some situations where this is more clear cut than other times. I don’t think I’ll watch this whole video so I don’t know what examples he is using, but

      say you had a 1000 word article and only two citations where and no ‘original’ text from your own ideas is that plagiarism?

      Maybe. Depends on the specifics.

      its the homework meme of ‘change it up a bit so it doesn’t look copied’

      Literally copying someone else’s homework and changing it a little is plagiarism.

      The image you attached isn’t plagiarism. It’s just similar dresses. If one designer copied another dress pattern and passed it off as their own, then that is plagiarism.
