Citations in papers should be included in the repetition rate. For example, in HowNet, less than 3% plagiarism or citation of a document can't be detected. Therefore, in order to avoid the repetition rate of quotations, the author should pay attention to the format of quotations as much as possible. For the parts that can or cannot be quoted, he can understand the original intention of others and then express it in his own way.

First, the calculation of citation repetition rate.

The repetition rate of citation accounting cannot exceed 10% of the total number of words.

1. For example, in HowNet detection, it will use a certain algorithm to compare your paper with the papers contained in HowNet database, and then you can get the part of your paper suspected of plagiarism, but if it is plagiarism or quotation, less than 3% of a single document can't be detected. Generally speaking, whether universities or magazines, in the process of reviewing papers on HowNet, the main consideration is to remove the repetition rate of cited documents, which can also be reflected in the inspection report of HowNet.

2. One part of the report of HowNet is the full-text repetition rate, and the other part is the repetition rate of removing cited documents. Therefore, in order to avoid the citation repetition rate, as long as the citation format is correct, the paper duplicate checking software of HowNet will automatically identify it.

3. The author of the paper can quote some chapters or focuses of other authors' essays appropriately, but be careful not to quote the full text or too many parts, because with the gradual intelligence of HowNet's duplicate checking, most of the quotations can be identified, but if the author quotes improperly or in the wrong format, it will greatly affect the duplicate checking rate of HowNet's papers.

Second, how to cite to avoid repetition rate

1. If the quoted language is used as an argument to support one's own innovative argument, it is a quotation. But if even the opinions are others' and the argument methods used are similar to the language, it is called plagiarism.

2. Format requirements

(1) Citation has certain format requirements, so it needs to be clearly marked in the paper, or the author should be directly stated in the article. When quoting other people's opinions, whether describing the original text or not, you should indicate the author and the specific book or publication in the form of comments, and indicate the publishing house, publication date and page number in detail.

(2) If you want to quote, the quoted opinions and materials are all from other people's books. It is suggested to find out the original source of the citation first, then check the citation, and finally mark its original source.

(3) Generally speaking, the most obvious plagiarism is deliberately concealing the source of the original text and directly copying the content of the original author.

3. Accurate quotation

(1) Citation is mainly to strengthen or prove one's own point of view, which can increase persuasiveness and reflect the author's reading comprehension ability from another angle.

(2) A good quotation should not only accurately quote, but also understand the context in which the original text is used, and cannot be taken out of context or misinterpreted.

4. Learn to learn from it correctly.

(1) Quoting also refers to quoting other people's opinions or some sentences on the basis of one's own writing, but the article must generally be one's own thoughts.

(2) But plagiarism only changes one's own articles, and nothing else changes. Too much imitation of other people's paper framework, using writing methods or data, etc. , completely changed from others, that is plagiarism.

(3) Therefore, we should learn how to learn and use other people's achievements correctly, so as to make the best use of them.
