The flowcharts introduced by COPE is handy dealing with issues of scientific misconduct , however when there are so many researches on the similare topics, should we label it as plagiarism? Can zero tolerance in plagiarism achievable ? Should researchers check plagiarism before submission of the article or is it responsibility of editors?
