DETERMINING ACCEPTABLE LEVELS OF PLAGIARISM/DUPLICATION
There's no simple answer to "What percentage of plagiarism is okay?". What matters is the nature and degree of duplication which indicates whether an editor will consider it plagiarism.
The COPE position gives more details, with examples, to clarify what might be considered plagiarism.
