Hi Wealthy Affiliaters!
I'd like to kindly ask. Is it plagiarism if we rephrase other author's great content and give them credit for it?
In doing so, I am also p

Hi Keisha,
Most welcome. You know I am always by your side. If you don't well darn it you know now.
You pretty much had said it all to Teguh, there was nothing left to add.

hey hi Teguh & welcome to Wealthy Affiliate!
... you're doing the right thing --- always better to check in and ask about something if there's ever any doubt in your mind ... as long as you provide credit where credit is due -- then it normally would be ok ...

Hi Keisha,
Thanks very much for this comment, then I will do it. Will email the author first before taking.
Since I am not based in the US or any other emerged countries, it is hard to meet face-to-face with the authors/bloggers.
yes, whether or not you receive a reply, then, at least you've done your part in taking responsibility and action in integrity ... and if there is any future issue, you've got proof that you did contact them ... and of course, cite the source and in a footnote somewhere, a lot of media outlets use a qualifier to keep themselves outta difficulty ...
keep well, keep happy! cheerio ... :)
p.s. of course there are many sources of 'inspiration' available -- bottom line, if you ever have any doubt about it, then just don't use the material ... toss and create your very own which is always the best route to take in any event ... :)
@keishalina9 yes, I just figure that backlinking/citing other's points of content (of course not all of it) to support my content and re-package it in some way might be good.
It gives a little bit authority to my content, as I am just starting out, you know. And also, I am giving more SEO-wise boost to that site of this author I am citing in. It should be a win-win for everyone right?
Anyway, yes I will just check to the author before citing, and if they don't reply and it is not urgently needed or not bringing any real value to the content, then I might as well not use the material/point.
Thank you!
Wishing you well in wealth,

I think as long as you give proper credit to the people you are directly quoting, it's not plagiarism. I think so, anyway.
