Incidentally, these auto-plagiarism-detection systems that academic journals use seem to go overboard. You 're not allowed to quote yourself, and sometimes they detect completely silly things. It's just not possible not to plagiarize "serial section electron tomography".

I've heard some anecdotes of students dealing with TurnItIn's flimsiness, with the professor/teacher being too stubborn to actually re-evaluate what the tool thinks is plagarism. But most professors out there are going to see that the tool isn't perfect.
