This article is about the interesting previously published papers on avoiding plagiarism.1, 2 First of all, it is impossible to publish a 100% original paper without any plagiarism except publish blank papers. The first paper published by Ober et al.1 mentions five rules to avoid plagiarism, but not to avoid it totally. The author thinks that the authors of this paper should have mentioned or at least written: "to avoid plagiarism as much as possible". The five rules are very interesting and can be shortened into these short sentences:

(1) Not copy from others (i.e., previous papers or your own previous papers, etc.). (2) Form your thoughts from your brain. (3) Cite everything you cannot rephrase. (4) Avoid self-plagiarism and cite any figures or diagrams not yours. (5) Ask permission when used unpublished data, figures or tables.

In the second article published by Wiwanitkit,2 the author adds more rules to increase avoiding plagiarism. First, the author mentioned an important point, which is copying from others’ ideas (not words). Other rule is to check your paper with more than one online tool for plagiarism checking such as Turnitin.

All of these are good and important but not enough. Recently, several researchers used more than one tool for grammar (such as Grammarly software) and more than one tool for rephrasing (such as Quillbot software) and of course more than plagiarism tools as mentioned in.2 All of these previous software create a non-professional researcher, which can easily get any paragraph from any source and rephrase it many times. The main importance that editors should focus on is the idea of the research besides the plagiarism report. Now, we can define plagiarism as using another person’s words or ideas without citing them.

Here, the author recommends: All unacceptable behavior, such as plagiarism, duplicate submission, and disclosure, should be understood and avoided by writers. Always provide credit to your sources, even if they are informal (oral/email conversation, website, etc.). Rather, describe in your own words (don’t simply rephrase or paraphrase)—but remember another’s ideas still require citation. Unless you quote and cite, everything you publish is assumed to be your own words/ideas. Any misrepresentation of any material as your own original work or idea is plagiarism. There is no “small” amount of plagiarism that is acceptable—one plagiarized phrase out of a 1000-page paper is still unacceptable. Plagiarism is not limited to intentional acts—can be committed accidentally (e.g., through carelessness in initial research). Exists across all domains—not more “acceptable” in one field than in another. Even if another author “authorizes” you to reuse their material, it’s plagiarism if not properly cited. Any published materials that you re-use must be cited and acknowledged. Redrawn with changes should include a citation and the words "derived from" or "based on".
