Now that you are aware of it: You should write a cease-and-desist letter to the copycat and demand a compensation; perhaps he could invite you and your partner to a posh restaurant downtown? Be stern and let him not get away with it! ;-) [I know your concern is with the double use university rules but I could not resist.] | |
| Mar 10, 2023 at 8:32 | comment | added | Spook | I think there's a question worth answering: was it really an instance of "work smarter not harder", or rather an instance of "I'm trying to find a way to avoid doing work which I have to do"? The difference may be slim, but still... | |

| Mar 9, 2023 at 10:40 | comment | added | Ander Biguri | Juts a clarification: you intentionally self-plagiarized, without knowing it was against the rules. Its still your work, so while you probably should have checked, its not the same as just plagiarism, as you are not claiming someone else work to be yours. But don't build your defense (if you need to) with the word unintentionally, because it was intentional, the unintentional thing was to break the rules, not self-plagiarize. I agree with Michael's answer anyway. | |

| Mar 9, 2023 at 4:52 | comment | added | Prof. Santa Claus | Is it self-plagiarism? The work is yours and you didn't sign off on the copyright. The main problem is that it goes against university policy, which specifies that you must not use previously submitted work. Otherwise, you are getting a 'free' ride. | |
