RE: Proof of Brain? 'Proof of Popularity'!

Although a good content is very subjective, I still think small stake users who write mundane topics should be highlighted as well. However with curation projects, there are criteria that have to be met, hence why, it's really tricky to catch all the good fish in the net. I am still positive that at least users who consistently write a decent to great content, definitely attracts curators and big users.

Although a good content is very subjective ...

Partly subjective. There are certain criteria helping to evaluate the quality of content, for example:

  • Are orthography and grammar correct?
  • How is the quality of included pictures and videos (that's measurable)?
  • Does the author offer verifiable sources to back his claims?
  • Does a post contain explanations, own thoughts, new ideas?

Curation projects have good intentions (and partly positive effects), but the trend of making whitelists with 'trustable' authors involves the risk to upvote certain users rather often, whereas others get nearly nothing. Actually, I think one should try to spread one's upvotes on as many different users as possible and evaluate content independantly of who created it.

I am still positive ...

Nice, lets hope together that in the end that turns out to be justified. :)

I agree with grammar conservatism. It's still though, personally, when I curate I also look at the substance of the post. Also, thank you for your insight. That helped me evaluate what I did in the past. Hopefully, I'll become a better content curator.
