      Hi there,
      
      Too much copy and paste, from here, for example:
      
      https://www.ifac.org/system/files/downl … sa-705.pdf
      
      It is pointless reproducing information that is already ready available from trusted sources. Waste of your time.
      
      Write about accountancy by all means, but offer something different.

   Thanks for feedback
   Nothing has been copied and pasted from any source.
   I have written, what I studied in an easy  and understandable way.
   But as the ISA is applicable to all countries, all over the world, it's provisions will be the same, and you might find same content as mine in other documents also.
   I have just presented the basic concept of audit.
   Thank you.

   Example:
   
   You wrote,
   
   Adverse Opinion:
   
   The auditor shall give adverse opinion, when having obtained sufficient, appropriate audit evidence, he concludes that there is misstatement in financial statements and its effect is both material and pervasive
   
   https://www.ifac.org/system/files/publi … -final.pdf
   
   Adverse Opinion
   
   The auditor shall express an adverse opinion when the auditor, having obtained sufficient appropriate audit evidence, concludes that misstatements, individually or in the aggregate, are both material and pervasive to the financial statements.
   
   Here's another...
   
   Yours:
   
   Disclaimer of Opinion:
   
   The auditor shall give disclaimer of opinion, when he is unable to obtain sufficient, appropriate audit evidence, and concludes that possible effect on financial statements of undetected misstatement could be both material as well as pervasive.
   
   Other source:
   
   Disclaimer of Opinion
   
   The auditor shall disclaim an opinion when the auditor is unable to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence on which to base the opinion, and the auditor concludes that the possible effects on the financial statements of undetected misstatements, if any, could be both material and pervasive.
   
   It's too close. You have tripped the duplicate content filter. Changing a few words is insufficient. Your content has to be original.

   Sorry to say but, these are rules and regulations about what opinion the auditor shall give in different circumstances,
   They are set by ISAs, I cannot change the rules and their definitions.
   You will find the same rules in any article relating to audit explanation.
   Any ways thanks for the feedback

      Your third sentence is the problem. I understand what you are saying about the rules being standard ones, but that fact means they are not suitable for an article on HubPages unless you deal with the problem skillfully. HubPages wants original material that is not published elsewhere. You need to take this into account when you are updating your article. If a large percentage of your article is identical or almost identical to other articles on the Internet or if the duplicated section is too long, I doubt whether it will be accepted.

   Based on the earlier comments, you need to ask yourself, "Why do I want to write for HubPages?" If your answer is "because I like to write with my own words and help others learn about audits," then you will do well here. However, based on your idea that it is okay to use similar copy from other sites will not work with HubPages. Being a writer is hard work and requires writing, not copying and pasting from other websites. I hope you sort it out. Good luck!
