      I'm confused about why Hubpages has published anything that he has written.  I checked his published articles with a plagiarism detector, and they all came up as plagiarized.

   You could try reducing the bold print in the body of the article. You’ve written the names of companies and verbs in bold print.

   The first section has 25% plagiarism hits. I suggest fixing this and making the content your own.

   That's awful to hear. Where does one get a plagiarist detector?

   I use several. Grammarly has one, which is part of the service. I am surprised that the articles are on Discover. This hurts HP, and these poor-quality articles should be removed.
   HP staff, please tell us how this writer got passed QA. Why are his articles on Discover?

      Kenna, don't you think it's better to flag the article?                                   By the way, tell me which plagiarism detector d'you use? Is it a free download or purchase? Much thanks.

   So now, plagiarism is acceptable on Discover. Why?

      About 2010 a long-time Hubber (forgot the name) did research and posted that articles need be only 60% original. I didn't like it; I hope it's changed to much lower.

         Yes. Just 15% will be fine.                                             This will be inclusive of word(s), quotes, and callouts.

         Yes, much lower than 40% copied.

            Anything lower than 20% and 30% is fine.                                    Thus you creatively write or express in your own words.

      After reading other people's responses in this thread, I found the article where the writer obtained his text. He has copied chunks of the earlier article. He was careful to reword the starting section, but even that comes from the other article. It's a sad situation.

   Yes. It's unfortunate.
