Get the pavinato mug.Plagiarism is the "wrongful appropriation" and "stealing and publication" of another author's "language, thoughts, ideas, or expressions" and the representation of them as one's own original work.
Plagiarism is considered academic dishonesty and a breach of journalistic ethics. It is subject to sanctions like penalties, suspension, and even expulsion. Recently, cases of 'extreme plagiarism' have been identified in academia. The modern concept of plagiarism as immoral and originality as an ideal emerged in Europe in the 18th century, particularly with the Romantic movement.
Plagiarism is not in itself a crime, but can constitute copyright infringement. In academia and industry, it is a serious ethical offense. Plagiarism and copyright infringement overlap to a considerable extent, but they are not equivalent concepts, and many types of plagiarism do not constitute copyright infringement, which is defined by copyright law and may be adjudicated by courts. Plagiarism is not defined or punished by law, but rather by institutions (including professional associations, educational institutions, and commercial entities, such as publishing companies).

This definition is my own original work, and NOT plagiarism. The fact that it coincides with Wikipedia is merely a coincidence.

Get the placid mug.A word created by Andy Six (Andrew Dennis Biersack) of Black Veil Brides on 2/19/2011 when he hacked his bandmate's (Christian "CC" Coma) facebook and made the status "Palvis". The origin and meaning of the word is unknown, but it is inferred that it is magical and you can ride around it it. Others assume that Andy just meant to say Pelvis- those people have no humor.
