Is it plagiarism if you get permission to use information that was created by someone else?
"transitive verb: to steal and pass off (the ideas or words of another) as one's own: use another's production without crediting the source intransitive verb: to commit literary theft: present as new and original an idea or product derived from an existing source"
As you see, the nub of the issue in plagiarism (note the spelling) is not so much in getting permission as in giving credit. Your question asks about using "information that was created by someone else." Strictly, "information" is not created but uncovered or disclosed. Once "information" has been published, you do not need permission to use it. What you might need -- depending on the length of your quotation -- is permission to use the exact words of the author who presented the information to the public. In any event, if you use the words of another author, with or without permission, you are obliged to mention that fact in a proper citation and to use quotation marks around the author's words.
Sometimes you must mention the source of an idea even if you do not use the author's exact words. But you do not always have to do that. If the information is widely known and oft-used, then you do not need a citation. For example, if, as student, you report that Shakespeare wrote a play entitled, "As You Like It," you do not need to document the source of your information. But if you report that some of the most uproarious and obscene language in that play turns on Shakespeare's pronunciation of words that we pronounce differently today, then you will want to note the source of that remark (where you learned that "information").
Here's another example of information that needs documentation: "The play [As You Like It] was entered into the Register of the Stationers Company on August 4, 1600; but it was not printed until its inclusion in the First Folio in 1623." The words and the information are from Wikipedia and because I took them, directly and consciously, from Wikipedia, I am obliged to use quotation marks and to report the source of the facts.
Beyond the simple level of a student's using another's work without credit, there are many instances of purported plagiarism that have been tried in English and American courts.
