Hi @yateghteghs, this work is plagarized.
Plagiarism means copying someone's work. Even if you add the source, it is still considered as plagiarism. But assuming you learnt something from someone's work, and then explain them in your own words, it is not plagiarism. You can even include your source as reference.

Definitions:
Plagiarism is stealing someone else’s work or ideas and claiming it as your own. It is a serious offense and can have serious consequences. Even when the content you are copying is not under copyright, you still must cite your sources.
Paraphrasing is to restate a concept with your own words. This is far more than just switching around a word or two; it is a complete restatement of the original content.
Citing means to give acknowledgment, or credit to, the person who actually created the content you’re using.
With these definitions, it is easy to identify plagiarism – it occurs any time someone tries to take credit for someone else’s work, thoughts or content.
I didn't take credit or claim ownership and I gave references to the source.
However, thanks for teaching me more today.
You are welcome, @yateghteghs.
It's considered plagarism because you want to earn from it. Have you consider YouTube music videos that gets taken down? Even though you cite the singer as long as your purpose is to earn from it, it is considered plagiarism. If you have canceled reward on the post, then your point would have been valid.
Citing means, you copy someone's work just to make emphasis on your own point, and at the end make reference to the person. For instance when a person in a middle of his work says "Abraham Lincoln once said". Cited works normally don't take up to 25% of a your total work, some publishes insist on 20 for journals. But the "citation" rating of yours was almost 90, that's truly why it wasn't curated.
We learn everyday. You can still post an original work by you and be upvoted by EPISTEM. Thanks for understanding.
