if I have done the research and present the ideas in my own words, the work is mine. If I quote from the research, I need to cite it. That is normal writing.

Bingo! Take a look at the new posts section and you will be shocked to see how many posts that come out that don't follow that simple procedure...
One more tidbit though, if you present any facts you need to say where you go them from...
maybe in academia but not in the real world. If I quote from another source I need to say where I got the quote from. ideas are not copyright, how they are presented is. Facts are not owned by anyone, how they are presented is.
