维基百科:抄袭
 |
 | 本页简而言之：禁止将其他来源的作品变成像是您自己的作品。这类情况应当要提供并彰显其作者之权益。 |
 | 有关于复制与贴上文字的更多资讯，请参考Wikipedia:从其他来源复制文本至维基百科。有关于非常接近原文的改写文字，请参考Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing。 |
抄袭指的是将他人所贡献的作品，在没有提供足够的作者权益资讯之下，将其语言以及思想变成是自己的作品[1]。剑桥大学将抄袭定义为："submitting as one's own work, irrespective of intent to deceive, that which derives in part or in its entirety from the work of others without due acknowledgement."[2]
维基百科有三项核心内容方针，其中两项很可能在不经意间产生抄袭问题。非原创研究防止我们将自己的想法放入条目当中，而可供查证要求条目必须基于可靠的已发表来源。这些方针意味着维基百科人非常容易被指责为抄袭者，因为我们非常执著于来源，但不能在内容上太过接近来源文本。由于抄袭的发生可能没有欺骗的意图，因此我们的关注方向应当放在教育编辑者清理条目内容。
所有来源会以行内引用进行标注，一般会以脚注的方式来进行引用（请参考引用来源）[3]。In addition to an inline citation, in-text attribution is usually required when quoting or closely paraphrasing source material（例如：“约翰·史密斯写到，这个建筑物看起来很壮观”，或是“根据史密斯（2012年）的文献......”）[4]。The Manual of Style requires in-text attribution when quoting a full sentence or more.[5] Naming the author in the text allows the reader to see that it relies heavily on someone else's ideas, without having to search in the footnote. You can avoid inadvertent plagiarism by remembering these rules of thumb:

- ^ "What Constitutes Plagiarism?", Harvard Guide to Using Sources, Harvard University: "In academic writing, it is considered plagiarism to draw any idea or any language from someone else without adequately crediting that source in your paper. It doesn't matter whether the source is a published author, another student, a Web site without clear authorship, a Web site that sells academic papers, or any other person: Taking credit for anyone else's work is stealing, and it is unacceptable in all academic situations, whether you do it intentionally or by accident." The university offers examples of different kinds of plagiarism, including verbatim plagiarism, mosaic plagiarism, inadequate paraphrase, uncited paraphrase, uncited quotation.

There may be exceptions when using extensive content from free or copy-left sources, so long as proper attribution is provided in footnote or in the references section at the bottom of the page.
- ^ See Wikipedia:Manual of Style#Attribution: "The author of a quote of a full sentence or more should be named; this is done in the main text and not in a footnote. However, attribution is unnecessary with quotations that are clearly from the person discussed in the article or section. When preceding a quotation with its attribution, avoid characterizing it in a biased manner."
