Copying someone else's work without giving any citation is possibly the worst and most obvious form of plagiarism. This seems to happen more frequently in the internet era. The internet makes it very easy for someone to find what they consider is an obscure article, copy it and call it their own. Anothor common plagiarism technique occurs when an author takes a large amonut of text and paste it into their article. Proper paraphrasing takes an idea and restates it another way. This means using an exiting idea or ideas in an original format.
