Journal - Most students view siting work as 'a pain in the butt'. How do you feel about it? Is it necessary? When is it appropriate to cite work? What's the importance of it?
I think that citing work is a very big pain in the butt. I don't think it is necessary either. I'm not saying that it is okay to plagiarize I am just saying that it is so much extra work and it's what makes me not want to write papers for any classes especially like informative ones. I think that bibliographies aren't that bad when there is just one page at the end of the the paper or what not but every time you quote them I think you should just put quotation marks around it. The importance of it is to make sure that you aren't going around writing things and taking credit for other people's information or writings or facts and to give them credit for what they wrote and how you are using it in your own paper.
