TalisRuadair Posted July 23, 2013 Report Posted July 23, 2013 Hello: Since I have been recently reading about the CC debacle from 2000, I have began to wonder if I am guilty of Plagiarism in my Harry Potter / Jane Austen crossover I named The Joke Book Trap. The reason why I am concerned, is even though I have used both Jane Austen's world and some of her dialog noted in my disclaimer, I have failed to mark the dialog and reference the page numbers or even chapter numbers the dialog came from in Pride and Prejudice. I understand why and agree with the removal of plagiarized items from AFF Archives. I am asking because if I am guilty of it in this particular fiction and require proper citations in my author notes, I am happy to go back through and add those notations. I do not believe I was attempting to pass off her dialog as my own and that I made enough reference in my narrative that Hermione was staying on Script or Draco for that matter. I admit that anytime I have borrowed JK Rowling dialog I have added an * and noted the chapter and book it was taken from in my Author notes at the end of the chapter. Thank you, Talis Ruadair Quote
