I just finished to write an article to a magazine, economic magazine. Its allowed to quote a writer , but quote exactly what he said and after that to give your own interpretation about the issue.:) You need to be very careful, not remove any items from what he said.
I did that with the gross margin. I quoted and after i made my comments. In this way i write a new article, from what was and how I see the things.
Now i am ready, after will be published, to face the comments which will be made by other economists.

Mashallah I could have used this advice earlier.

But better late than never.

Jazakallah khair.

Peace,

not plagiarism but 'research'?Plagiarism is like when you use the lyrics from a song and change a few words
when you sing it to your sweetheart !

Research is when you COPY&PASTE an exact quote, then make comment on it's message.

The writers are writing many articles, based on what have they read here and there. ( the economic stuff is from my real life activity, is not the site business;) )
Mariam its a writer. What she forgot, unfortunately is to put the link.
I will give you an example about my writing skills.:)

NEW THREAD:
Violence on this site

When around the entire world, many people loose their life without to know exactly why, when people are simple numbers added on the news, like today died 20 ,but without to anyone ask themself for what they died, on one site there is a user which claim to kill more.
This user is Mariam whos remark its quite shocking:"Another * is telling users to go to the nearest playrgound to find women and children to kill or things of that effect."
* The user in question is Mariam
From:http://www.ummah.com/forum/showthread.php?t=49953
What all believe about that???
The end


Like any writer i wrote my thread based on what i have read on this site. Mariam who will read this will become little red:mad: and will ask questions and certain explainations.
At this point the masha user will be excused because according to any writer rule, she is not responable for what she have read on x thread IF SHE PROVIDED THE LINK. This is my interpretation according to that thread.

Mariam can be angry on the user which told this or that about she without to provide the link because if i would have seen ANY LINK THERE I WOULD BE FORCED TO READ THAT LINK TOO BEFORE TO MAKE A NEW THREAD.

BRIEFLY Mariam didn't post the links which could make her not culpable at all.

" copying from one source is plagiarism, copying from many sources is research"

well, i guess at the end of ur articles or (i dunno what).. u can just list ur sources of information.I am forced to post the bibliography. In this way ,if they have objection because of my interpretation, they can read the same books, can quote the same author and give their own interpretation too. Its democracy. Who is telling to them i am the peak of the mountain, under me are only .... and i am the best of them.:scratch:


More they can write a completely new article where to criticise me completely, thats allowed too:nervous: :eek:
