Knowledge and intelligence don't warrant creative ideas. However, they used to be necessary prerequisites of it.
Writing skills are more demanded in humanitarian sciences, but standard requirements of that in other sciences are still quite high for obvious reasons.
Knowledge can be defined as the facts, information, and skills acquired through experience or education; the theoretical or practical understanding of a subject. Whereas intelligence is the ability to acquire and apply knowledge and skills. Creativity is the act of turning new and imaginative ideas into reality. Writing skill is a form of communication that allows people to put their feelings and ideas on paper, to organize their knowledge and beliefs into convincing arguments, and to convey meaning through well-constructed text.
So let me conclude like this: Up to a large extent these all are different. But intelligence leads to gathering of knowledge by which new ideas can be generated and can be given a shape in reality and that can be communicated and explained to the others if someone has good writing skill.
Knowledge , intelligence, creativity, and writing skill are different but surprisingly interrelated qualities. Having an intelligent mind is a prerequisite to increasing one's knowledge of the outside world. Alternatively, relying on one's creativity, the individual can externalize his/her ideas by exploiting his/her writing skills. Writing is a process whereby knowledge, intelligence., creativity, and composing skill interact in order to create precisely the ideas conceived within.
These are very different human faculties, but not separated ones, in terms of psychology.The creative idea and their written fixation, however, is the foundation of any human cultural progress (from stone age to digital age).
Colleagues have provided noticeable responses. A statistical approach of the question, if available, could be interesting; for example, the correlation between the number of creative ideas of a person and the level of their knowledge.
hi. in order to write and create a new text , it is necessary to be intelligent enough to relate what you know, your previous knowledge, to your innovative ideas,. that is how a good text is written. being knoweldgable and informative is the pre-requisite of relating ideas together; how is it possible to make an excellent text without related background knowledge? most people can have the knowledge but not the innovation and intelligence to combine the components properly. therefore, these are interrelated components .best
Knowledges are the ingredients and the recipe, one can cook the meal by intelligence and routine. One is creative if one has only the ingredients without any recipes.
In my opinion, Intelligence and Creativity in Problem Solving are various kinds of Cognition function.

In my opinion, the basic knowledge acquired during the course of study is of fundamental importance for a fertile mind. For example, if you do not know that bacteria exist, you will never be able to observe that the "mold" of lemons kills them. Therefore you will never be able to guess the possibility of creating and making an antibiotic. Summarizing in a nutshell: knowledge, intuition, creativity and capacity for realization are qualities closely interconnected by intelligence and imagination.
Knowledge is a familiarity, awareness, or understanding of someone or something, such as facts, information, descriptions, or skills, which is acquired through experience or education by perceiving, discovering, or learning.
Intelligence tests use to measure linguistic and non-linguistic proficiency. The correlation coefficients have a medium order of magnitude, which means that there is a certain correlation when the definitions of the capabilities to be measured are taken as a basis. The test authors, on the other hand, will probably not move very far from the everyday understanding of the terms in the definition of the abilities they define as part of intelligence. Terms can have a high or a low share of subjective definition power. This means that one can assume a certain factual connection of the mentioned terms. But it depends on the researcher himself whether his goal is to highlight the similarity or the difference of the terms mentioned. That they have nothing to do with each other at all is a hypothesis that only has credibility if the questioner is in a position to formulate a reasonable hypothesis.
Since all require and involve communication, then clearly they are related. Nevertheless, although top artists have a combination from my experience I have come across people with a strong sense of colour who appear (I mean appear, nothing more)not to possess some of the other attributes. Adroit use of language need not involve extremely high intelligence (from my experience), with abstract thinking and the capacity to analyse above the fray. Writing is a skill that at the highest artistic and analytical level requires high intelligence, but lack of these skills need not adversely indicate lower or low intelligence.
There does seem to be an amalgamation of skills with personality, but this, which becomes more obvious as people get older, usually involves limitations or expansion of artistic and intellectual development. Goethe, Hawkings, Da Vinci, Shakespeare demonstrated continuous development of art (where applicable) and thinking, but others deteriorated from a high point or stayed at a high point achieved when young: Gris, Dickens (he early achieved a style and developed that style), Hemingway, and, I'm sure, numerous scientists.
Research shows that creativity and intelligence are linked with the physical connections in our brains. knowledge alone is not useful unless we can make connections between what we know. creative people were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people. In The Art of Scientific Investigation, Cambridge University professor W. I. B. Beveridge wrote that successful scientists “have often been people with wide interests,” which led to their originality.
According to me they are different from each other in classical sense and in terms of concepts but when it comes to research and learning; all this terms come together to perform successful, useful and innovative research.
It can be said:
Knowledge is awareness or familiarity gained by experience of a fact or situation.
Intelligence is the ability to apply and acquire the knowledge and skills.
creativity is the act of transforming new and innovative ideas into reality.
and writing skill is a vital part in the communication. It allows us to disseminate the information to rest of the world.
So all this terms goes hand in hand but theoretically its different.
The problem is that there is no commonly accepted definition of some terms.
Maybe, the following definitions as given in
M.H.W. Hoffmann et al.: "Knowledge, Skills, and Competences", in IEEE EDUCON Education Engineering 2010; Madrid, April 2010; ISBN 978-1-4244-6569-9 , DOI: 10.1109/EDUCON.2010.5492519
may help to clarify parts of the discussion:
1. Knowledge related to a field of work or study,
means the learnt, retrievable information on facts,
the context, to which facts are associated, and the
rules interrelating facts to contexts.
2. Skills means an ability that has been acquired by
training and that makes use of the implicit
memory, to apply knowledge to standard
situations, and to use know-how to complete
standard tasks, and to solve standard problems.
3. Competence means the proven ability to
autonomously recognize interrelations between
facts and the contexts to which they are linked,
to apply this ability to systematically develop new
methods, and, if indicated, to apply them to
changed situations. This includes application to
work or study situations, and in professional and
personal development.
Concerning creativity another publication may be helpful:

Objectively Assessing Creativity" in Auer, Al-Zoubi et al. (Hg.) 2011 – Proc. of EDUCON 2011,
All the fundamental can not be separated as they contributing in writing skill .We can offer justice to our writing skill if we have given justice to said elements .
While they are all interrelated, there are people with lots of knowledge who are not creative. There are people with great intelligence who have no common sense and can not see how something applies. There are creative and adaptive people with neither of the first two qualities. Even if you are lucky enough to possess all three, can you write? Writing is an acquired skill and must be learned.
i think all three qualities are connected. If we starrt the process backward we say to be able to writ you need to be creative and creativity requires intelligence skills
Knowledge is related to knowing factual information, no matter in whatever field. Intelligence realtes to how smart the eprson is: this may or may not have anything to do with the knowledge. For example a person may be street smart but otherwsei not highly educated. This person may have creative ideas that is helpful for day-to-day living. Writing skill is by and large independent of the other three qulities, however the person with a high degree of knowledge should be expected to have good writing skills.
To the questioner: This discussion will not lead to a useful result, if everyone uses different definitions of the terms (if at all), and provided the other debaters do not know what a particular debater understands by these terms.
Therefore, and first of all, define what you mean by "knowledge" in contrast to "skills", and how you define "skills" in contrast to "competence", Next, define, what distinguishes "competence" from "creativity".
Finally, define what you mean by "intelligence", based on the terms "knowledge", "skills", and "competence", and if possible, on "creativity".
Having done that, you may concentrate on what you mean by "writing skills". It may be supposed that you do not only mean the skills to write down a grammatically correct sentence. But what do you mean in reality?
Writing skill means that you can "sell" for otrher people your paper. You need have a good style, precise grammatic, vocabulary, colored pictures, videos etc.
Wring skill means something negative. If you are wringing you would like to get into a peaceful state.
Intelligence tests do give answers to specific questions, not to what normal human beings understand by it.
I would like to illustrate that. A typical questions in intelligence tests is to complete the next steps of a mathematical sequence. From a point of view of pure mathematics, this is complete rubbish. There is only a speculation possible, on which may be the next member of a sequence, there is no, really no exact answer possible. This question in an intelligence test tells you something on the competence of the interrogator not on the responding indiviudals.
Therefore, I would appreciate, if debaters could contribute on what they think is intellgience.
I think intelligence and creative idea are linked. An intelligent mind give more ideas. Also intelligence is God-gifted, it can not be learned. While knowledge is what you acquire. Similar goes for writing skills which can be learned definitely based on knowledge. If intelligent having creative idea got knowledge about writing skills, he became true scientist/researcher.
Intelligence tests test for certain skills, only seldom for competences, and virtually never for creativity. Therefore, substantially different intelligence tests yield substantially different results.
We know about individuals showing the savant-syndrom. They possess fantastic abilities, some of them having an IQ of 150 and more, if their particular talent is considered. However, these same persons (however, not all savants) do not show substantial creativity, neither concerning music, nor arts, nor writing.
Thus, if we even cannot define what intelligence is, how can we give evidence for assertions that intelligence be linked to somewhat, or even be gifted?
"Curiosity is one of the most permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous intellect" S.Johnson. The rational+ the irrational leads to creativity, where intelligence is the rational, the irrational- emotions.They are passed on genetically and must be developed through knowledge and experience in the process of forming communicative skills (transmitting, storing and processing information).
"Creativity is highly different from knowledge": agreed.
"Writing skills" in a sense of documenting something in written form are not built in, they must be learnt.
What you mean is "writing competence". It supposes the competence of arguing in a convincing way, and the latter is abolutely independent from the ability to express in written form what you would like to say. However, the competence of arguing supposes the ability to think logically. Maybe that is what you feel to be part of "intelligence".
It depends on the individual skill sets. There are examples of great creative skills and a reluctance to present it in writing - most innovators are close to that category. Whereas inventors, scientists, and engineers have to follow special writing training, rules, and requirements to present their professional results.
In arts and literature the influence of ideas, personalities, originality, historical interests, and impressions may partially offset a lack of refined writing skills.
All totally different. Most engineers are very creative, and intelligent, but few can write with any skill whatsoever. My intellingence is higher than most, and as a frequent pubquiz player, I consider myself knowledgeable, but not necessarily so creative. I suck at art, and word puzzles.
I don't think there is much that ties all these things together.
Writing is the only productive skill of the four terms. It expresses the knowledge a person has, it reflects how intelligent a person is and in what way, and of course it identifies to what extent the person is creative and in which discipline.
