OCD is looking for curators of other languages!
Hey everyone!
@ocd started off 70 days ago with 20 curators looking for undervalued quality posts from mostly new authors and it has been going really great so far and the feedback by the community has been amazing!
We have curated and promoted 5-10 posts daily and supported them with a large trail of votes while incentivizing the curators to do their best job at it and helping authors get noticed and driving more attention to their amazing posts.
OCD recently added re-steems to their activity as well after having reached over 1500 followers, starting off with 3 per day and growing organically.
Now its time to branch out and add more curators that will be looking for posts in different languages and promoting those posts in a similar fashion as the compilation posts have been doing so far.
The languages we will be starting off with have been determined a bit by the active userbase and a bit by the need of them getting more curation and attention. This is a list from Steemittraffic.com that displays the activity from different countries on Steemit and also has some other nice stats that update daily in case you hadn't heard of it before.
The languages we will start off with will be:
- Spanish
- German
- Italian
- French
- Polish
We already have a dozen curators for Spanish and German in the orginal curation team so we are primarily look for a couple curators for the last 3 languages.
What your daily activities are as a curator
- You search for original content posts (no plagiarism) that are undervalued (under $10 rewards) and nominate them for curation on our discord channel.
- You vote on other posts by the other curators in the team to choose which ones make the daily compilation post. (also on the discord channel)
- Since only a couple of you will be able to understand that language, the person in charge of writing the post that week won't be able to write descriptions to the post themselves so the curators will have to add short descriptions when nominating it. Preferably in both the native language and in english. (More info on that on discord later)
Reward distribution
50% of the SD from the daily multi-language posts go to all (language) curators and 50% to the ones whose nominations make the compilation post.
50% of the SP remains with the account but you get a stake in it depending on your nominations and activity. When you decide to leave the project you will receive your share in Steem/SP.
There will also be a bonus 1000 SP delegated to each curator while they are involved in the project as well!
How to apply as a curator for these posts
Simply leave a comment here telling us why you would make a good curator for the project and we will look over your application.
We are looking for 2 curators per language: Italian, French and Polish.
Bear in mind that this is just as a start and we will be looking for more in the future! Good luck!
Keep me in mind when you're in need of a Russian speaking curator!
Will do. :)
Well hello again @acidyo ! Awesome initiative and I think that's really my thing ;) As a professional translator (English, Greek, Italian, French) and a Steemit passionate fan I think I would be perfect as Italian or French curator! I love languages and steemit so since I'm online all the time anyway, why not be useful? I'm also part of another team on steemit (that I'm not really allowed to reveal :/ ) and do research anyway and report back! What do you say? ;)
Hi, I am a french living in USA so I could definitely be curator for the project with French! I am trying to have more and more visibility on Steem and would love to participate to also promote others
I have been checking your Daily OCD nomination and I have been nominated today, so I guess I get the original post that could be promoted :)
Dear @dbeauhaire, nice to read that you are french ! We welcome you in the french community under the tag #fr ! :-) We also have a Discord and a Facebook group. More details on my profil or in my website :-)
Hope to see you soon !
Hi @acidyo,i'm a romanian that lives in italy since i was 10 years old so i could be a curator for the Italian team but also for a romanian team in the future if there will be one.
Most italians don't speack english really well, but there a lot of undervalued posts written in italian and i think this intiative is very nice.
Also, thank all the @ocd team for nominating my Life Changing Quotes post !!
Nice man, we are already 2 Romanians in the team. Good luck :)
@fervi - Poland. From months I (and my colleague @lukmarcus, I hope to also apply for candidature) we are developing the tag "polish", we are trying to teach new people the Steem rules and we try to get as many people as possible to get on Steem / Steemit.
Count me in! I'm trying to vote and comment on most of Polish content everyday. My second account (only for Polish) is @marszum.
What I can add is that both of them have already proved themselves as good curators of polish content.
Hello @acidyo,
I would like to nominate myself as i am devoting my all days for three months now to the french community. But I would like also to nominate theses french fellows who are building our french community everyday.
@ixindamix, @corsica, @evildido, @ragepeanut, @planetenamek.
If there is not enought space for all of us, please, don't consider my self-nomination. We are all a good team, and I am sure they will all represent me well.
As you may know it, we already started a curation account (but very few SP). We are doing even thought an amazing work every day with few ressources. It's @francosteemvotes.
Finaly I would like. to thank you the person who informed me about this post. I think you have to selected people already involve in the french community and not someone not known.
Hi @acidyo i'm the owner of @francosteemvotes with many french curators. We all have the same project to promote french community and good contents and we work for it everyday ! We operate on a system of delegations and community votes in order to designate and vote for the items to be rewarded. However, we do not have great resources, but we strive to fulfill this task every day. I suggest that we get in touch with several of our members to discuss the conditions and the way forward that would allow us to engage in a kind of collaboration and thus increase our rewarding power. Best regards,
Hello @acidyo! I would be glad to apply for Italian :-) It would be great... I am interested in art, food, literature, photography and so on...
