Plagiarism, Duplicate Content and Reusing Unpublished Content

Articles must be original and must not duplicate any part of any previous articles written by the writer.
Do not rephrase references, resources or previous articles. Do not shuffle or change words from the reference material or previous articles in an attempt to pass off the content as original.
Avoid choosing similar titles to prevent duplicating your own content.
Cite all sources. When quoting, provide proper in-text attribution.
Plagiarized or duplicated work prompts article rejection, suspension of privileges and possible termination.
Avoid resubmitting rejected material or abandoned rewrites under a similar title.
Contact the Help Desk, if you feel a copy editor's request violates the guidelines or is inappropriate.
Avoid abandoning a rewrite.
