The majority of Steemians already know that writing or uploading content in Steemit should be original; not plagiarism; not a hoax, if you do not want to get complained or declared in the black list by the Steemit's robot 
However, there are still some Steemians who do copy-paste from other web without listing sources—as we could see on daily @Cheetah reports. Usually this happens to new Steemians (beginners) who are reluctant to read the rules of Steemit, let alone the social media platform until today only available eight languages, while users are more than that. Perhaps it is one of the things beginners are lazy to read the rules.
In the case of plagiarism,
“Cheetah is an informative robot that might comment on your post. If she does, she will claim that she found similar content somewhere else on the web. This is because you likely copy&pasted some form of content, whether it be your own or not,”

"The interpretation of the comment is up to the voter who reads your post: the comment, in general, means that the voter will likely desire an understanding of the source of the content that you posted," he added.

As we know, any thing potentially reaping negative impacts or violations, there will be rules. In other words, rules are always present when there's been a violation.
Concerning this matter, there are four provisions and explanations from Steemit about plagiarism or if part of the post is quoted from other web:
The community is looking for you to add your own personal touch to your articles.
Plagiarizing, that is posting someone else's work as if it were your own, is very frowned upon by the Steemit community.
If you are using anyone else's material as part of your posts (including images) - please cite your sources.
Also, make sure that you are not violating any copyright laws if you are using someone else's material/images. Limited, sourced material sharing is OK under fair use and fair dealing doctrines.
Steemians, this article I write not just to share knowledge with who have just joined in Steemit.
I also just joined and not as fortunate as a number of other Steemians who immediately got a lot of 'upvote' until their reputation instantly got 40, even more. However, what I wrote above also as a reminder and note to myself in appreciating the hard work of others.
I think everyone will be more appreciated and respected when they also appreciate the work of others. In this case, listing the source in our post, in addition to the stipulation in Steemit, is also an appreciation to the content creator.
Prove that the content we post deserves to be paid by Steemit!
