Citing sources is such a hassle...right? Most people consider making bibliographies a total and complete waste of time, and they could never be more wrong. Without citations, so many things could go wrong; especially when you're doing a project for work or at school. What they don't realize is that without citing, they could mistakenly be charged for plagarisim. For example, if i was to write a research paper for class, and I use research off of a website without giving credit to the author, I would get penalyzed for claiming someone else's idea without any form of permission or earlier notification. This displays respect and gives the author the credit that he/she deserves.

Plagarisim is a serious affense that can be caused by lack of citations. Plagarisim is the form of copying other authors without paying them credit for the research. Plagarism is a huge issue that can range from a low grade in school to possibly even expulsion. It may also cause issues in daily carreers and hobbies.Not only pulic consequences, but plagarisim may cause people to be ashamed and to lose one's integrity. Citations also strengthen the reliability of someone's work. another thing that citations help with is finding sources more quickly and more easily.

Plagarisim is a huge violation! it comes in different types. For example, many people use direct quotes, they paraphrase and they summarize things without paying the authour the credit that they deserve.
