To present someone's else work as your own. Which I think fits the situation when someone pastes a complete article without a source. Sure most will figure out that's it's an article from somewhere but gotta give credit where credit is due.

That's correct, but the OP of this thread apparently considers it plagiarism if a full article is posted with a link to the website it was taken from.

If you mean the sentence: "Avoid committing plagiarism by linking the original article in your thread." then I believe he is offering advice, in other words 'make sure to link the article so your article is not plagiaristic'

Edit: Bah! I'm late to the correcting Rol party.
