Bible Note: Repost of ID# 61096: _______ ____: Grace and peace to you. None of the following is intended as harsh criticism of you. Instead, I write what I do to help you avoid certain problems in future postings. When quoting a published source in your postings, great care and attention to detail must be taken to avoid charges of copyright violation or plagiarism -- neither of which I accuse you. I merely point these things out to you. First, according to the Lockman Foundation, "You must usually document the title, author, publisher name, and copyright year" of the material you are quoting. For example, it would have been better in your post had you placed the following information at the bottom of the page, enclosed in parentheses: (UNDERSTANDING THE BIBLE: Interpretation, The Ryrie Study Bible, Charles Caldwell Ryrie, Moody, 1976, 1978) Second, If using direct quotations, by all means enclose them in quotation marks. Third, avoid editing the quoted material. The safest course is to quote it verbatim. For example, you attribute the content of your posting to the Ryrie Study Bible. Then you write: "These are suggestions only, towards basic concepts of interpretation..." The actual quote in Ryrie's own words is: "These suggestions are simply facets of the basic concept of plain interpretation." To paraphrase Ryrie's sentence as you did is to alter the meaning the author intended. Again, _______ ____, please do not take this post as a rebuke. That is the furthest thing from my mind. I appreciate you and the post you submitted. You make excellent points there. My only motive is to spare you any problems that might arise from not giving proper attribution. From the Lockman Foundation: "I want to include a quote from another work in my posting. Can I do that? "If you are not the original creator of the content you submit, you must not violate the rights of the copyright holder by submitting your content without the permission of the copyright holder. You must follow the instructions for quoting material as provided by the copyright holder. You must usually document the title, author, publisher name, and copyright year." (Lockman Foundation) Grace and peace be multiplied to you, kalos |
