How I Used Plagium to Detect Plagiarism in My Work

As someone who values originality and integrity in writing, discovering plagiarism in my work was a wake-up call. Here’s my journey of how I used Plagium to identify and address plagiarism, ensuring my work maintained the highest standards of authenticity.

The Discovery Phase

It all started when I decided to run a routine check on one of my articles. With the increasing accessibility of information, I knew the risks of accidental plagiarism. That’s when I turned to Plagium, a tool recommended for its comprehensive approach to detecting plagiarism.

Getting Started with Plagium

Visiting the Plagium website was my first step. The interface was user-friendly, offering quick and deep search options. I opted for the Deep Search, given its thorough scanning capabilities. After uploading my document, the process began.

Analyzing the Results

Plagium’s report was eye-opening. It highlighted sections of my work that closely matched other sources. The detailed breakdown, including the percentage of similarity and links to the sources, was invaluable. It was clear which parts of my article needed revisiting.

Taking Action

With the insights from Plagium, I revisited my article. Some sections required rephrasing and more rigorous citation to clearly acknowledge the original authors. In other cases, I realized that certain phrases had become so common in my field that they were considered generic. However, I still made efforts to ensure my work’s uniqueness.

Learning and Moving Forward

This experience was a crucial learning opportunity. Plagium didn’t just help me detect plagiarism; it also guided me towards better research and writing practices. I’ve since made it a habit to use Plagium for all my submissions, ensuring my work is always up to the mark.
