Curie Weekly Update (24th July to 30th July 2017) - Curator Recommendations, International Support and more!

in #curation7 years ago (edited)

  • In spirit of Curie's transparency, we wish to use this weekly section as an ongoing development blog on our project to communicate our progress on top of the many casual exchanges happening in channel #curie.
  • For those new to Curie, please follow @curie, and join us in #curie on Steemit.chat.
  • Follow @curie's votes to support the authors. Please consider following our trail and voting for curated authors. If you are a Streemian user, @curie is an available trail to follow.
  • Remember to follow and interact with authors that you love going through The Daily Curie.

Adding More Support for International Posts

Curie was the first curation project that helped support great posts in some international and non-English areas, including Korean and Spanish, which have become large segments on Steemit. Today, there are many growing communities in international growth areas, some of them posting in languages other than English. To recognize and support good content in these areas, Curie will allocate a portion of its votes again on some regional posts (in English and in other languages). In each of these areas, we will rely on trained curators who have posted appropriate guidelines for their communities, have a trusted system in place, and will be supervised by Tom @donkeypong.

Italian curators: @thenightflier and @bhuz
Brazilian curators: @maxjoy and @dudutaulois
Nigerian curators: @destinysaid @gbenga @ehiboss @ogoowinner @fisteganos
Malaysian curators: @bitrocker2020 and @awesomianist

This curation will be independent of Curie's general curation works, which will continue as usual with no changes.

Curator Recommendations

With public submissions by new curators now closed, we have a new system for onboarding new curators. Top curators will now be able to mentor and recommend new curators. If the new curators performs well, the recommendor will receive a Recommendation Fee. Some guidelines for this program -

  • Only curators with CS >5 and AR >85 (i.e. the top tier) will be able to recommend new curators.
  • If the new curator can maintain a CS => 1 for 4 weeks, the recommender will receive a 100 Steem reward for each curator recommended.
  • If the new curator can become a top curator, maintaining CS >5 and AR >85 for 4 weeks, the recommender will receive a 500 Steem recommendation fee.
  • Poor recommendations will lead to disqualification for the recommender. If even one new curator fails to maintain CS => 0.25 within the first 4 weeks, the recommender will not be able to recommend new curators.
  • There's a limit of 3 new curator recommendations per week, all of whom will start off with 2 submissions per week.
  • The new curator recommended must be a bonafide and engaged member of the Steem community. (I.e. no sockpuppets etc.)
  • Top curators may develop their own process for selection and mentoring, and can use #curie to solicit applications for curators. Once you'd like to recommend someone please post in #curie.

We hope this will allow Curie to continue offering a voice to promising new curators, as well offer current top curators incentive to mentor new curators.


Weekly Statistics

Over the last week, Curie curated a total of 183 posts at an average of 26 posts per day. This is increase from last week, but at the very limits of our operational and voting power capacity. Going forward, we expect many more smaller votes for the international project, while general curation should stabilize around 150 posts per week.


Authors

The top authors recommended by our curators this week are:-

@animejp
@forty-two
@jacquelyne
@jorgevandeperre
@jschindler
@katedansyng
@oonalight
@agmalirsadi

Once again, a completely fresh list of promising authors, with no repeats from previous weeks!


Curators

The Top Curators list will dynamically change every other week depending on performance. Anybody will be able to rise up the ranks with consistent, quality curation. Inconsistent, low-quality curation will result in dropping out of Top curators list(or regular curation, if under-performance continues).

This week, we have upvoted 180 posts submitted by curators in http://curiesteem.com, with 1,800 STEEM to be paid out to curators.

Me along with @bhuz would like to thank you @curie for the trust you have placed in us. The whole Italian community on Steemit is deeply grateful to you.
A special thanks to our great coordinator and supervisor @donkeypong... He is doing an incredible work with the minor communities. I wish you all the best Tom, you are an awesome person!

Really nice news, thanks for supporting our Italian community and its growth!

If it's found to be plagiarized, the vote will be removed.

does indonesia have curator ?

Curie does not have any separate curation in Indonesia.

thank you

Is there a post where it explains how it all works? What is CS, AR, how is curation done...etc...

I know this is an update but could you please leave a link to more details so that those who read this post can find out more? Thanks in advance!

Visit #curie at Steemit.chat. There are pinned guidelines and FAQ.

Thank you.
Who is the spanish curator?

Curie does not focus on Spanish language posts. The Cervantes project covers this.

EDIT: Thank you for removing your votes in the case below! tips hat


I would like to bring to your attention that you have been upvoting and promoting an impersonator!!

@iconzbranding is not Arinze Stanley Egbe!!

[this] is his post you've promoted. [this] is the result of looking at a few of his posts!

Thanks for the awesome initiative!

Lots of yummy new content to devour! Yay!

Thanks for the great service you do for the platform.

Upvoted and also resteemed :]

How about Philippines does it have?

I really like this concept.

thanks, new follower here, getting my head around it! (-: peace

Hi friend, very good !!!!!
You would help me with a vote in my Blog., Thanks !!! ;)

Thank you so much for the curators who have shared my post, making me one of the top authors of the week, and thanks to the @curie who has partitioned in everything.

Thanks for the great work you guys do for this community!!

Thanks for the opportunities @curie. I'm afraid I performed badly the last week. Need more experience with curating, then! Congratulations to fellow Filipino artist @erangvee for remaining in the list and with high CS too. Keep it up! @curie should open up a Filipino regional curation and make you lead!

What a great initiative here as always, I'm happy to be of service to the steemit community. Upping in performance and efforts this week.

Thank you very much for your support!

It seems so good, but in which way can someone make advice of a Post that just find? Thanks

Nice to see you in @curie post @agmalirsadi .... good for you...

interesting and diverse list of authors... I didn't follow any this time, but I will check back again to find some matches for me, peace

just voted curie for witness too, peace !

Thanks for the upvote on my story in #steemlords, there's actually a lot of fun, hilarious and well written story's in that tread. It's worth everyone check out!

This is a very cool service! I am excited about the new content!

First of all, a heart felt thank you for your generous appreciation of my post "What is Hinterglas". Came as a really big surprise and I am very grateful, as it is very encouraging to carry on.

Your... how should I call it... project? (sorry, I'm German) @curie is a great way of rewarding authors who really try to add good content and also a great starting point, to find interesting blogs.

Thank you very much for finding me and your generous upvote :-)

I know this is not the best place to do this so I apologize in advance. I've been writing on Steemit for a while now and I'm struggling to get my work noticed. Any assistance you can provide will be appreciated. Thank you for your time

Hi @curie! It's amazing what you do, I think I speak for the entire community when I say that you might be the most valuable group of people in the entire Steem chain. In the end, it's the quality of Steem's content that will hugely impact the way we grow and develop here. I don't have the words to express our gratitude, but maybe that's for some other time.
For now I have a question: what does CS and AR stand for, and what are they?

@curie - Thanks @fitzgibbon for bringing the question about CS and AR. I'm also wondering what these two terms stand for. Can anyone please explain?

I've found it:

What is CS and AR?*
AR = Approval rate. That is (number of posts approved) / (number of posts submitted). (Posts that are "Closed" are not considered for the posts submitted count)
CS = Curation Score = (Number of posts approved) * AR^2
Your CS determines your submission limits, and adjusts dynamically on a weekly basis. The CS algorithm means only submit if you're 100% sure your submission will be approved. There's a very heafty penalty for disapprovals.

Where can I find my CS?
It updates weekly and is published every Monday in Curie Weekly Update.

Would be glad to join this project!

thanks for the information @ehiboss talked to me about curations on my last post ..am really gr8ful

@curie @donkeypong - I'm new to steemit and it took me a while to find you (almost a week!!!!)

I wants to thank you for your upvote on my Banana Mint Shake post.

Without your support, there are chances that quality work will go in vein without people noticing it, like this post of mine about Ocean City Boardwalk

I hope that I'll keep my commitment to only bring quality work to steemit and you will appreciate that work. I was working this whole week on new content and from Monday onwards there will be 5 quality posts per week.

I hope you get a chance to review my content and appreciate it if you like it.

Steem ON

Curie,just chiming in to let you know I exist and that I will be on open mic as I was in #45.You missed it,but it was my first. See you on the next go 'round!
