	Plagiarism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Plagiarism is the practice of dishonestly claiming original authorship of material which one has not actually created, such as when a person incorporates material from someone else's work into his own work without attributing it.
		Plagiarism is not necessarily the same as copyright infringement, which occurs when one violates copyright law.
		Accidental plagiarism is often the result of poor citation or referencing, or of poor preparation, or a misunderstanding of plagiarism per se.

	Denis Dutton on Forgery and Plagiarism
		Both forgery and plagiarism must be distinguished from piracy, in which unauthorized copies of a work are made and sold, depriving an original author or manufacturer of profit.
		Since plagiarism involves the theft of content of a work, rather than the theft of the author’s name, it is less philosophically interesting, though even more legally ambiguous and complicated.
		Because plagiarism involves theft of another’s work, rather than attributiing one’s own work to a famous artist or writer, it tends to be less important to the literary historian.
