I'm wondering to what extent the Creative Commons requirement of “attribution†is equivalent to the standard academic norm against "plagiarism." The academic definition of plagiarism includes use of ideas without attribution. It's not clear to me that the Creative Commons definition of "content" incorporates ideas as a type of content if those ideas are expressed in different words. Please clarify this ambiguity. Perhaps Creative Commons should provide a definition of "content" that more clearly specifies whether ideas are to be included.

Does the definition of "content" include ideas?
