Does the plagiarism which has been taken from your own published papers cited in the text is necessary to be considered for evaluation the submitted manuscripts and why ?
Dear Dr Refat
Taking text directly from any text is plagiarism, even if it is your own article (self-plagiarism). Journals evaluate that and can reject the manuscript if plagiarism, even self-plgiarism, exceeded 20% of the article content.
Kind Regards
Dear Dr. Hassan,
You should rephrase the text even if it was taken from your own previous literature (Self Plagiarism). To overcome this issue, use any plagiarism detection software or tools and compare your original work with the paraphrased text and check the similarity report to see the similarity percentage. You may make editing changes and check similarities several times until reaching minimal value or the perfect zero similarity.
Regards,
Your question is really about self-plagiarism. In this country (NL) a well-known professor wo had received several national awards saw his name being sullied for that. Self-plagiarism is NOT acceptable at all. As someone who does reviews I will not accept that. Of course, if it is a double-blind review it is difficult but unexpected evidence will emerge if one is sharp-eyed and asks critical questions.
