Everyone knows Rowling and Meyer's stance on fanfiction and the fact both writers have প্রদত্ত a thumbs up of sorts. However, there is something I don't think either one of them would of approve of and it involves those Reading the Books a lot of people are supposedly writing. I say supposedly লেখা because copying from another persons work is not লেখা unless আপনি are quoting under fair use. And boy... every single পাঠ করা the বই I've come across is not in fair use and constitutes plagiarism. I know how to write one that doesn't constitute plagiarism, but I'll save that until the end.
One of the arguments I've seen is that it is just fanfiction so it doesn't matter if they are committing plagiarism and copyright infringement in their stories because it is just for fun. However, when আপনি প্রকাশ something to the net it is not just for fun anymore. When a person is found out to have plagiarized the rest of their work will come under প্রশ্ন about whether অথবা not it is also stolen অথবা not. That is unless your a really young writer who hasn't yet learned what plagiarism is and then people are আরো willing to give আপনি a সেকেন্ড chance. This is because plagiarists tend to be serial in what they do rather then sticking to just one piece.
The সেকেন্ড argument is that fanfiction can't be called out for plagiarism because it is a copyright issue and to call fanfiction out on a copyight issue is to call into প্রশ্ন the entire work as fanfiction uses copyrighted material. I am going to point out here that copyright infringement and plagiarism are two different things. Copyright infringement means আপনি used the material without the persons permission and plagiarism means আপনি গাউন the persons work and passed it off as your own. For example, আপনি can plagiarize Shakesphere and any of the other works that have fallen into public domain. Since no one has the copyright nobody can take আপনি to court for plagiarizing the work because it is the copyright holder that gets the money in a lawsuit.
The third argument comes from the fact some people believe disclaiming the work means আপনি haven't committed plagiarism and আপনি can't get in trouble for plagiarism. link ]Plagiarism.org[/url] puts it well. Under their তালিকা of things that are considered plagiarism it lists ”copying so many words অথবা ideas from a উৎস that it makes up the majority of your work, whether আপনি give credit অথবা not (see our section on "fair use" rules)”.
So how much is to much? Some people may remember their teachers telling them that if their work is thirty percent অথবা less then the writer is within fair use. I'm going to point out that this is for essays and not creative writing. There isn't an exact percentage, but it should be under one percent of your work when it comes to copyrighted material and even that can be too much as two to four lines per chapter is also an added limit. So what does this in fact mean? It means that the majority of the পাঠ করা the বই fanfics consitute plagiarism.
Some may say, but I paraphrased the বই so I should be fine. Here is another quote from the site I gave আপনি from the list. It includes, “changing words but copying the sentence structure of a উৎস without giving credit” and the whole copying to much from the original উৎস in fact also counts despite having changed the wording around and paraphrased the work And here some people may be thinking, but I use the characters so that is plagiarism right? Nope. As I've said, copyright infringement is different from plagiarism.
The disclaimers may not save আপনি when আপনি take the actual words, but when আপনি admit to borrowing the concepts from the বই your covered. Unless of course the writer decides to not allow people to write fanfiction for their stories and they are going to push অগ্রবর্তী their right to be the sole person to create derivative works off their work. The exception to the rule is parody as parody is protected under fair use.
The পাঠ করা the বই issue is an epidemic and it isn't restrained to just the Harry Potter and the Twilight fandoms. A lot of people claim that banning পাঠ করা the বই stories from sites infringes upon their freedom of speech অথবা their creative freedom forgetting that what they are doing is infringing upon the rights of someone they are supposed to be a অনুরাগী of in the first place. Those who write পাঠ করা the বই অথবা support them in some manner are in the wrong, not the site admins, not the writer nor the people calling them out for what they are doing.
That said, it is possible to write an actual পাঠ করা the বই fanfic. I refuse to call the stuff that I've been finding fanfic because as I've pointed out, copying someone else work is not writing. Some people are probably thinking it is impossible, but then they are not thinking outside of the box.
Avoid quoting and paraphrasing the work. Particularly don't do it on sites where copying is not allowed at all. আপনি can write sentences like “Lily read the book until she got to what a brat her sister's son was.” Do not fill your work with the above sentences but instead make each chapter a focal point around one of these sentences. For example, Lily might storm over to her sister and lecture her about how to properly take care of kids for one chapter.
Some people may say, but that defeats the purpose of the পাঠ করা the Books. As I am going to point out, the stuff that is being put out is not লেখা but is instead all over the place. The writers are throwing jokes left and right and the works are unfocused, not to mention so many of them are exactly the same because they are following the same restrictive structure rather then actually thinking outside of the box.
I look অগ্রবর্তী to seeing a legit পাঠ করা the বই fanfic made, because it will showcase the writers potential a whole lot আরো rather then the writer relying on another writers words as a crutch. So, while I'll defend the idea behind the পাঠ করা the Book fanfic I refuse to defend the ones that have been deleted from sites for obvious reasons. Support the writers of পাঠ করা the বই who are doing the right thing instead of the ones who aren't.

I don't want to hear about Harry Potter অথবা any other book right now. I'm not setting this up for a বিতর্ক about which is better. I just want to know seriously and honestly why আপনি Twilight অনুরাগী enjoy পাঠ করা Twilight. I want to see an actual reason that Twilight is a good book.
If আপনি don't like Twilight, I don't want to hear আপনি saying anything bad about it. I just want to know why people like it. Because all the debate's I've seen have no actual reasons. They have HP অনুরাগী and Twihards going on about which book is better, but not why they like it.
I do actually want respectful বিতর্ক though. I want to discuss the reasons আপনি give, but nicely.
If আপনি can't be respectful of each other's opinions then just don't comment.
And I'm not trying to hate on Twilight, but if I disagree with আপনি I will বিতর্ক with you.
I don't know if there are other debate's about this, so I'm sorry if there are, but I didn't look.
I'm just rambling now so let's get onto it!

Is it just me, অথবা does it seem like most of the Twilight অনুরাগী feel that they have to write in capitol letters to get their points across? Personally i find it really annoying.
It's also a fact that if আপনি write in capitol letters IT TAKES LONGER FOR THE BRAIN TO PROCESS THE INFORMATION and therefore takes longer to read. Originally all the road signs (In England anyway) were written in capitol letters, until they were redone and someone found that smaller case letters were quicker to read. So they changed it.
So পরবর্তি time আপনি feel like shouting because your book sucks, don't write in capitols, but put...
*shouting*... at the begining of your speech.
Thank you. That is all.
