Plagiarism Prevention

Consortium Publisher uses the software to detect instances of overlapping and similar text in submitted manuscripts. We check the contents of submitted articles against the archive of periodicals, online internet material and scientific database. The obtained similarity report highlights the proportion or percentage of uploaded article the overlap the published contents. Thus, we accept the overall 20% similarity of manuscript to be considered for publication.

Moreover, the content tracking mode ensures that manuscripts with an overall low percentage of similarity but have a higher similarity from a single source are not ignored. The acceptable limit for similarity of text from a single source is 5%. If the similarity level is above 5%, the manuscript is returned to the author for paraphrasing the text and citing the original source of the copied material.

Additionally, it is understandable that the scholarly articles are compiled after comprehensive review of previously published information. It’s not easy to differentiate the legitimated and plagiarized information. However, the certain features can potentially help to identifying different kinds of plagiarized content.
