== Large "quotes" ==

As a general question, how much can we 'quote' from a site before it becomes plagiarism? Generally, in an academic work, or in something wishing to be that rigorous, shouldn't we paraphrase large sections of other people's work rather than pulling hundreds of words verbatim?

Where the quoted work is poorly worded or suffers from poor grammar, should we not re-phrase?

Aren't we trying to create something of which the world can be proud?

Large "quotes"

As a general question, how much can we 'quote' from a site before it becomes plagiarism? Generally, in an academic work, or in something wishing to be that rigorous, shouldn't we paraphrase large sections of other people's work rather than pulling hundreds of words verbatim?

Where the quoted work is poorly worded or suffers from poor grammar, should we not re-phrase?

Aren't we trying to create something of which the world can be proud?
