About Limited Originality of Content
Content posted to Facebook should offer unique value to its audiences. Therefore, content with limited originality will face reduced distribution on our platform and the Page that posted it may have its access to monetization tools limited or removed. This type of content is against our Page Terms as well as our Content Monetization Policies.
Definition
Content violates our limited originality policy if it is:
-
Content that your Page had no role in creating or editing.
-
Minimally edited content that does not meaningfully alter its source.
-
Compilations of third party videos.
-
Content that was uploaded somewhere else first that your Page had little to no role in creating.
These are just examples. Other types of content may still violate this policy.
Note: This policy can still apply to copyrighted or licensed content.
Prohibited Behaviors
There are three major behaviors that can lead to limited originality flags for your Page:
-
Limited editorialization: A Page posts collections or single videos from other Pages without any meaningful enhancements (voiceover, commentary, graphics or creative editing).
-
Aggregating: A Page compiles and posts videos from multiple Pages or third-party content creators.
-
Duplicative content: A Page posts content that already exists on Facebook or was posted somewhere else first that the Page had no meaningful role in creating.
