Copyright is a legal protection that gives the creator of an original work exclusive rights to that work.

To show that a section of writing came from a different source, a writer can use citations or references to acknowledge the original author or source.

Luke's actions can be described as plagiarism, which is the act of presenting someone else's ideas or information as one's own without giving proper credit.
